We discuss Nas' storytelling, 90s Hip-Hop, and whether or not "Life is a *expletive* and then you die..." FMS Fam, listen in as we discuss what's been described by some as the greatest hip-hop album of all time. But is it though??? Listen and see! Don't forget to subscribe and submit a review!

Time is Illmatic! If you are a hip-hop fan, then you know why we had to do this one. Tell me, what comes to mind when you think of New York City? Is it Broadway? Times Square? The Statue of Liberty, maybe? In his homage to his beloved stomping grounds, Nas says, "I think of crime when I'm in a New York State of Mind". Well, Nas... "it ain't hard to tell" that I ain't about that life so I'm glad you dropped this album so we can all be educated about it :)
