Actually no, its not.
Pac did everything Nas did on Illmatic, and he did it in 7 days. What took Nas his heart and soul to make, simply came as second nature and effortless for Pac, who was improving on an unbelievable pace as an artist during his final days. God forbid if ge lived to make another album, it would have been mindblowing, far greater than either the subject of this thread or Illmatic.
And dont even try and come with that "you're a Tupac dickrider" bullshit, because it aint gonna work on me like it does on 99% of the rest of this board. I have Illmatic in my top 5 fav albums, and Nas in my top 5 fav MC's......but 7 Day Theory is un-fuckwithable in too many ways.
Plus, Illmatic was only 40 minutes of near perfection, while 7 days was 60 minutes of near perfection......would you rather have 40 minutes of perfection, or 60 minutes....take your pick.
