I see the word used constantly in comment sections for bands & musicians, most of whom are insanely popular and have been around for numerous decades yet to those few idiots somehow they're "so underrated". Gimme a break. 🙄 Only underrated to *you* if you've been living under a rock or just discovered the band/musician like 5 seconds ago. Please just stop, it's nauseating and makes you sound like a pretentious jackass.

If you want to talk about “real music” know your history and know that every generation has their thing that is influential to their era that the previous era called “noise”.

He was on another level. Nas is ight. However, aside from illmatic his other albums are ehh. Kinda like eminem, after his SSLP and MMLP it was all down hill from there. Rakim deserves respect, after paid in full dropped it literally did change hip hop and added complexity. Dudes like pun, krs one, wu tang(nearly any member) MF DOOM, etc outshine him
