Theres nothing stupid about the line though. The prior line states that he had a weapon laying in the grass so like a cheetah in the wild, he hauled ass to get the object he had in mind.
Its a simple imagery, Nas is just more creative in his rhyme schemes, while Jay on the otherhand spells his shyt out rather plainly with a methaphor thrown in here and there.
No, youre making up shyt thats not there in order to try to make naS look better. naS has the simple simon rhymes... "run like a cheetah" theres nothing spectacular, thought provoking, clever, smart, nothing exceptional about that at all. It doesnt require any more thought than a typical kindergartner couldnt or wouldnt have come up with. There was nothing great about the rhyme scheme.

Jays shyt was so far past this weak ass kindergarten shyt naS is spitting its silly. The imagery is corny at best.

:dahell:Did nikkas just forget about one mic?




Way better the D'evils....

Decent song. Lyrically nothing special at all. Nothing clever. Best part about it is how he starts spittin calmly but increases the aggression throughout the 1st 2 verses, then reverses it in the last. Lyrically its average and another example of this nikka throwin words together. tryin to compare his bullets to Jesus' age :why:

Stillmatic Intro or either Nas is Like
No. shyts not even better than the Blueprint into lyrically. Just more shyt that idiots think sounds cool, but doesnt make any sense. For fukks sake he got the most important part of the shyt backwards. Shoulda been Heart of a slave, blood of a king, but when youre dumb you make mistakes like that. Like Carmen said, the nikka is ignorant and hates education.
All I Gotta Say Is Nas 'I Gave You Power' Kills Everything & Everybody Plz Just Stop It Nas Is In A Class By Himself Plz

I gave you power is a good story and personification track. Lyrically not even remotely on the level of "D'Evils" just stop
Wtf lyrically nas > jay

No question

Can he? Has he? wow troll thread
nah, blatant ignorance

the storytelling
flipping of the words
the aliteration of p's halfway through the verse
and this was in '08, not the 90s.

not a bad verse :ehh:... nothing lyrical about it though.
naS stans just keep showing that they dont know lyrical when they see it. Lyrical is "D'Evils", "Hovi Baby", "Grammy Family Freestyle", "Allure"

if we wanna go outside of Jay... "Theme Music to a Driveby", "Failure", "SLR I, II, III" any 3 Stacks on "Sorry" or "International Players Anthem" etc...

naS just dont got it lyrically.

Because most people are idiots. If you think that bullshyt posted early in this thread talkin about a cheetah is in the same universe as "D'Evils" you are a complete full 100% idiot. naS is a story teller, nothing more. Lyrically he's average. If Waka Flocka said he ran like a cheetah to houston, no one would call it lyrical because its not. If Waka Flocka dropped "D'Evils" people would still call it a masterpiece.

I really want naS stans to be smart.

THIS TOPS D'EVILS WITH EASE IMO!!

NAS - SUSPECT

Dear God, I want the riches, money hungry bytches infested
Giving the jealous nikkas sickness, the witness
My crew dresses, in vest-es, feel the essence
Try to test this, scientist, able and reckless
Slaughter, Nautica'd down, frames look petite
Ten millis, mix designed just for my physique
I keep a low pro as if I owe, bless the flow lovely
My pants hang low while I'm dancing, sipping the bubbly
Hey, me no worry, hashish keep my eyes Chinese
Rollin two Phillies together make blunts Siamese
I meant it, I represent it, descendant made of
early natives that were captured and taught to think backwards
Trapped us in a cracker psychiatric, it's massive
A Million Man March, alert the masses
Ten glocks, Armani in small print, upon my glasses
Don assassins, armageddon, the wettin'
Never freakin the beast, seven heads, got the righteous threatened
Life Was Written, the plot curves behind the settin'
Comprehend the grammar, Manfrione -- are you the type of nikka
to shoot a leg to get your name known? I flip the brain tome
nikkaz get hit and wrap the plastic
The mic I strike in vain givin the pain of what a Mack is
What you with? Luchi or drama, no sleep means insomnia
No need to check the clock, the streets are timin you
:ahh:

NAS - THE MESSAGE

Fake thug, no love, you get the slug, CB4 Gusto
Your luck low, I didn't know til I was drunk though
You freak nikkaz played out, get fukked and ate out
Prostitute turned bytch, I got the gauge out
96 ways I made out, Montana way
The Good-F-E-L-L-A, verbal AK spray
Dipped attache, jumped out the Range, empty out the ashtray
A glass of 'ze make a man Cassius Clay
Red dot plots, murder schemes, thirty-two shotguns
Regulate wit my Dunn's, 17 rocks gleam from one ring
Yo let me let y'all nikkaz know one thing
There's one life, one love, so there can only be one King
The highlights of livin, Vegas style roll dice in linen
Antera spinnin on Milleniums, twenty G bets I'm winnin them
Threats I'm sendin them, Lex with TV sets the minimum
Ill sex adrenaline
Party with villians, a case of Demi-Sec to chase the Henny
Wet any clique, with the semi-tech who want it
Diamonds I flaunt it, chickenheads flock I lace em
Fried broiled with basil, taste em, crack the legs
way out of formation, it's horizontal how I have em
fukkin me in the Benz wagon
Can it be Vanity from Last Dragon
Grab your gun it's on though
shyt is grimy, real nikkaz buck in broad daylight
with the broke Mac it won't spray right
Don't give a fukk who they hit, as long as the drama's lit
Yo, overnight thugs, bug cause they ain't promised shyt
Hungry-ass hooligans stay on that piranha shyt
:whew:

PLEASE TELL ME THIS AIN'T LYRICAL AS WELL!!! :snoop:

no, theres plenty people who dont think naS is nice lyrically. Go to any thread about illmatic. I think naS stans specifically are dumb and cant tell the difference between being lyrically nice and simply liking the lyrics to a song. To me Pac is the GOAT, but you'll never hear me say Pac was nicer lyrically than a Jay or Lupe, I'd be fukkin insane. But nicer than naS or at least on the same level sure. naS stans cant seem to make that distinction and end up sayin shyt like "ran like a cheetah" is as lyrically nice as "look in ya casket feelin sarcastic like 'look at em still sleepin'"

naS stans are forced to defend some corny shyt...

Yes, not lyrical... somewhat corny.

there was one "lyrical" part... rollin phillies together makes blunts Siamese (of course he rhymed it with the obvious Chinese). And it wasnt clever or special or anything. I guess the glass of Ze make a nikka Cassius Clay was aight too.
