Illmatic (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Illmatic is the debut album of American rapper Nas, released April 19, 1994, on Columbia Records. Following his signing to Columbia with the help of MC Serch, recording sessions for the album took place during 1992 to 1993 at Chung King Studios, D&D Recording, Battery Studios, and Unique Recording Studios in New York City. Its production was handled by Nas, Large Professor, Pete Rock, Q-Tip, L.E.S., and DJ Premier. Stylistically a hardcore hip hop album, Illmatic features Nas’s multi-syllabic internal rhyme patterns expressing inner city lyrical themes and narratives based on his native Queensbridge, New York.
Upon its release, the album debuted at number 12 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, selling 59,000 copies in its first week. However, its initial sales fell below expectations and its five singles failed to achieve significant chart success. While it experienced initial low sales, Illmatic received positive reviews from most music critics upon its release and earned praise for its lyrical content, production, and Nas’s lyricism. On January 17, 1996, the album was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America, and in 2001, it earned platinum certification after shipments of one million copies in the United States.
Since its initial reception, the album has been recognized by writers and music critics as a landmark album in East Coast hip hop. It contributed to the regional scene’s artistic renaissance in New York, while marking an influential, stylistic change in hip hop at the time. Its influence on subsequent hip hop artists has been attributed to the album’s production and Nas’s rapping. Several writers have cited Illmatic as one of the quintessential hip hop recordings and one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time. In 2003, the album was ranked number 400 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

I still got the vinyl version of the album. One of my all time favorite albums in the hip-hop history.

Nicki Minaj’s sophomore album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded has debuted at number one on the charts.
According to Hits Daily Double, the Young Money rapstress moved 251,551 copies of her second release in its first week at retail. The Harajuku Barbie’s latest was initially projected to sell 200-250,00 copies, making its first week sales slightly above expectations.
Minaj recently spoke on how she returned to her rap roots for PF:RR. “[The evolution of my career has] just been peeling back the layers and now, it’s like the ultimate layer was me saying, ‘Now I’m going to do whatever kind of music that I want to do’…[it's] not always going to entail a hard Hip Hop beat, but sometimes it is,” she said.

Lil Wayne’s latest album Tha Carter IV has been certified double platinum after three months in stores (via HHNM).
The RIAA certified the album, which neared a million copies sold in its first week, on November 16th. Though the LP has shipped more than two-million units, TC4 has only actually sold 1,700,000 copies.
Tha Carter IV, released on August 29, 2011, features guest appearances from Drake, Tech N9ne, Cory Gunz, Rick Ross, Busta Rhymes and more, and has also spawned the singles “6 Foot 7 Foot,” “She Will” and “How to Love.”
Rick Ross, Bow Wow Delay Albums to 2012

The fall release lineup is getting slimmer by the day. Rick Ross and Bow Wow are the latest rap releases to see delays.
The Teflon Don’s fifth LP God Forgives, I Don’t will likely be pushed from its December 13 date due to his recent seizures. “[Because of] my little health situation, I had to postpone a lot of my groundwork,” Rozay told MTV News. “If I wanted to, I’m pretty sure I could still meet that date, but I think for the people, it’s more important [to lay groundwork] for when I get out there and look them in the face and touch them hands.”
While he promised fans he wouldn’t push it back again, Bow Wow’s Cash Money debut Underrated has been moved from December 6 to an unspecified 2012 date. The 24-year-old rapper recently shot a video for lead single “Sweat” with Lil Wayne.
Additionally, projects from Monica, Birdman, Nicole Scherzinger, and Taio Cruz won’t hit shelves until the new year, and we’ve heard that albums from Young Money’s Tyga and Lil Twist will also not arrive in time for Christmas.
