How Many Number 1 Albums Does Nas Have

Nas dropped his first album, Illmatic in 1994, and has had 5 number 1 albums since then. It Was Written (1996), I Am (1999), Hip Hop Is Dead (2006), Untitled (2008) and his latest album, Life Is Good (2012) all debuted at number 1 on Billboard Top 200 albums chart when they dropped. Some people include the number 1 he got with The Firm (1997) album, but that was a group album, so I didn't include that.















And to add, out of his 10 album catalogue, 7 of them (the first 7) all sold at least a million copies individually. Below is the list of all Nas's albums...and their sales.
