Dope as fukk. I'm liking this better than Vol 1.
Salaam Remi did his thing, he needs to stop being overlooked, this and his work on LIG really show that he is one hell of a producer.

Yes. I dont understand the hate he gets sometimes.

Dude will never fall off

He gets hate because as executive producer he's partially responsible for the beats that wind up on Nas' records.

If nothing else, this year has proven that Nas' inability to pick good beats is primarily on Nas.

I'm convinced Black Thought could possibly be the best rapper alive.

Like, if someone said "Black Thought is a top 5 rapper", I couldn't even begin to hate

 

[classicmaterial]

Took me a couple times through but this tape is phenomenal

 

[TheDarceKnight]

This is pretty solid off 1 listen. I think I might like it more than Vol. 1.

100%

I say that as a massive Nas fan and I think he's even gone on record to say that his ear isn't the best for picking production.

Black thought has been top 3 for the past 5 years IMO Lupe, Elzhi, and Royce are the only people on his level IMO

Except Kanye sent the beats to Nas days before the album and he wrote to what he was given

Meanwhile him and Salaam are in the studio together when making their records and are usually good, it’s the other joints that are the problem

I’m actually not sure if he’s exec produced a whole Nas album and done the arrangements

He’d be probably good at it like No ID did on Life is Good or how Hip Hop was probably gonna be on the shelved 2016 album

But we know Nas ain’t pick the beats on Nasir. Kanye did. That album was off cause artist and producer weren’t in the studio together
