MahmoudRFeb 24, 2007This album is a classic PERIOD. The so called "experts" who rated this album were paid big bucks by def jam to do so

Nov 27, 2010This album brought Nas back to the forefront in Hip-Hop. Aside from maybe one track, this entire album brings that intensity that only Nas can bring.

Jul 14, 2012the fact that this recieved a 69 scares me. this was one of the strongest releases for hip hop in 2001. this is just as good if not better than the blueprint.some of the great tracks are youre da man ether one mic and destroy and rebuild. the only reason this doesnt get a ten is because it didnt match the greatness of illmatic but still a fantastic album

Aug 1, 2012After Nastradamus, Nas was almost not king of NY. Well with Stillmatic, he redeemed himself and I'd say he still is king of NY and always will be when he is rapping with advanced lyricism, and good production which are two reasons why Nas is the best of the game today. This is the definition of his name Nasty Nas, striking with another classic.

Jan 6, 2016A classic Nas album. Stillmatic is a strong LP that contains some of Nas' greatest songs from the aggressive Jay Z diss "Ether" to the retrospective "What Goes Around", to the creative storytelling in "Rewind". The album only has one dud, and it is "Braveheart Party", however, everything else is greatness.

Aug 14, 2020Hands down one of Nas best albums How it got a 69 rating on metacritic Absurd
-
Aug 19, 2021Nas risen from the dead with this masterpiece. It was an silencer to all the criticism that he was receiving from his competition

[Anonymous]Apr 27, 2002Definitley not "Illmatic."

AsiaZJun 13, 2004This is supposed to be Nas' return to form? Both Illmatic and It was written highlighted his incredible storytelling chops over sample based beats. Stillmatic highlights Nas' arrogance over synthesized beats- yuck.

May 8, 2011i'm a huge nas fan. nas is my favorite rapper but this album wasn't that good to me. it was okay compared to his other albums. i liked a few songs on the album. overall it wasn't that good. his lyrics were still on point. but his production quality was lacking.

Nov 20, 2022How can this **** be rated more than 0? it's disgusting and cringy. Even in 2001, Nas wasn't even close to J-Z
-
Nov 25, 2022Really overrated. This album isn't even near Illmatic level. Absolutely disgraceful.
-
Nov 29, 2022bad album. bad songs. bad bars. bad lyrics. bad beats. bad rapper. sorry Nas fans
-
Dec 1, 2022Again. How can this be compared to MMLP, TES, TPAB etc????? You tell me. Decent album but nothing more. 6/10 but this ratings must be lower so i'mma give it a 0.
-
Dec 6, 2022Not really surprised about the fact this is album is pure **** Overrated artist, after Illmatic his name has been put near the goats and it's absolutely disgraceful.

scottpNov 6, 2003The best hip hop cd ever!! just amazing! from track 1 to 14 this is the best ever. other than every ghetto (the bonus track) i can't stop listening to this cd. of course one mic is amazing but others dominate as well, what goes around and got urself are still great! get this NOW!

DonovanCMay 20, 2004This album is just sick! This is how your suppost to come back after a downfall. He came back aggressive and deep. Tracks 1-14 are ill. I think any rapper who can rap a whole song backwards makes an instant classic. Best rapper alive!!!!!!!!NAS

jellydonutheadmanJun 25, 2004a great album.

RyanT.Jul 19, 2002This is Nas best album since his debut Illmatic. There is some filler for example "Smokin". But overall this is Nas most introspective and consistent album since his debut.
-
-
FelonyShineFeb 23, 2003This album is definitely a classic album by a masterful artist. An artist should be rated by his ability to adapt to his circumstances, which are constantly changing. No one does it better than Esco.

MCDishDec 14, 2005I don't know what the critics are talking about, but Stillmatic is still the shit! It's got songs like One Mic, which'll hit you emotionally, cuz it's poignant, and Rewind is like Memento-the-rap song. This album is ingenious, it ain't like all that other pop, bland 50-cent materialism bullshit we hear on everyday radio.

Stillmatic is all the proof anyone needs that Nas isn't as special as he was five years before the album's release.

BlenderA surprising return to form. [Feb/Mar 2002, p.114]
-
VibeIt's infuriatingly inconsistent.... But this album's bittersweet beauty lies in the fact that Nas cares. [Feb 2002, p.120]
