Nas - Illmatic vs. Big L - Lifestyles ov da Poor & Dangerous?

Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous is my favorite out of the two. Both have that gritty boom bap production, with Big L's being a bit darker than the beats on Illmatic. The reason I like Lifestylez better is because there are more songs and that Big L is ALWAYS entertaining. Illmatic is super short and Nas' montonous voice can get boring after a few spins of the album.
