For once, a re-release worth getting

Features some insane remixes, some of which I'd heard, some not - and I've been a fan since the first Illmatic came out the first time, we go way back. Plus all the originals, hot as ever. Can't say Nas ever came up to the same scratch as this first record, which was as tight as it was grimy at the same time.
Amazing album

Saw Nas in concert a few years ago (Rock The Bells Tour) and he killed it! Lyrics that mean something, delievery that I feel is sincere, and classic beat making on this album! One of the greatest gifts to my ears!
Greatest hip-hop album ever

By AngelaBoyan
There are very few albums in hip-hop that are thrown into the argument as being the "greatest ever". Nas' Illmatic is one of them, and in my opinion IS the greatest ever. Without repeating what others have said, I'll say that my favorite remix on this edition is "One Love (LG Main Mix)".
The best rap album ever made

I’m a new fan of Nas and it’s really cool to hear the new remixes and compare to the original. Just as good, if not better, as the original! Nas is a legend!!!!!!!

One of the best hip hop albums of all time

By ProfeshCamper
If you are any sort of hip hop fan, illmatic is an essential. Often considered the hip hop bible, Nasir paints a vivid picture of life in queens with vivid story telling, godly flow, and incredible lyricism. Every single song on illmatic is a classic. The XX version proves that the album stands the test of time, a must have for anyone who loves poetry, hip hop, or music

I bought the hard disc and the iTunes version of this album. It is definitely worth it. The greatest hip hop album of all time. No one better than NaS.
Legit Real Hip Hop

This is the music we will no longer hear on the radio. Unfortunately for us, this is the real deal. The raw, visceral feel you gain when listening to this album is simply unprecedented and never again to occur.
Best rap album ever!

By ONE Evil BEAST
In my opinion it's the best rap album ever just because it's so lyrical and he pretty much did it all by himself.
The best of all time.

If you cant understand why this is best rap album of alll time with the best rapper then you must need to go read a book and get your brain working a little better so you can understand these lyrics and rhythms.

In my opinion, NAS is and always will be the greatest lyricist of all time. Whether it’s his old stuff(Illmatic) or new stuff(Life Is Good); NAS always throws down real meaningful lyrics. This is true Hip-Hop/Rap at it’s finest!
