On a technical level that's not true. Illmatic was full of 3 and 4 syllable rhymes, while the D-Prime example rhymes are almost all 1 syllable.
Also Nas is very smooth and fluent. The lyrical themes may be closer to Nas, but in terms of flow D-Prime is more like early hip hop - Sugar Hill Gang, Kurtis Blow, Grandmaster Flash etc.
