A NaS B- side sleeper from the Life is Good album

[Jack Trippa 3z company ho]

Not a sleeper track at all for me. Easily one of my favorite joints from the day I bought LIG.

I love the keys which are taken from "make the music with your mouth Biz".

 

[Professor Polo]

what else would you say are the best tracks on Life is Good?

Back When
Stay
No Introduction


A lot of people like Queens Story more than me. I heard Queens Story live over a Marvin Gaye beat which kinda ruined it for me because I liked that beat more than the beat on the album.

Not a sleeper track at all for me. Easily one of my favorite joints from the day I bought LIG.

I love the keys which are taken from "make the music with your mouth Biz".

And I can respect that breh. Its just rare I come across people who say they like the song.

This one definitely had to grow on me.

That Biz Markie classic so when I hear it from the production side I be like
" If it don't sound better than that don't touch it"

A Queens story >>>>

The very first time I listened to Life Is Good and heard that beat it actually made me and

Nas floated on that

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

You Wouldnt Understand was my joint

 

[We Major]

You Wouldnt Understand was my joint

That last verse especially

Back When and You Wouldn't Understand>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

[The Ruler 09]

I always loved the joint, was an instant favourite of mine.

 

[KravenMorehead™]

production on the whole album was based on 80's-90's nostalgia. You gotta look at it from that context to "get it." The whole album is like that down to concepts and lyrics. An OG in 2012 reminiscing about the 80s 90s

nikkas is stupid in this thread and and continue to show their lack of hip hop knowledge

Reach out is a DJ hot day flip of New Edition Once in a lifetime groove blended with Public Enemy #1 it was one of the dopest blends and Nas being a hip hop head loved it and wanted to rap over it and killed it

 

[ISO]

How are nikkas hating on the production these are classic samples, this album was a throwback yet modern at the same time

Initially, I immediately gravitated towards Stay as my favourite joint on the album. It took me a year to actually realise that my favourite was actually You wouldn't understand. I was just driving home after meeting up with my boys one evening, and I ended up having it on repeat for the whole drive home.
