Nas and Rakim finally on a track together. It was supposed to be the most epic shyt ever. I remember the fake Stillmatic tracklist with NY State of Mind III f/ Rakim and fiending. :ohlawd:

And then this dropped and it was kinda :ld:

And I like Alicia but I don't wanna hear her when the the gods of NYC finally come together. It's not even a bad track but I expected more from Nas and Rakim.

Nas' Sadaam line was crazy though :wow:

Kanye,Mos Def,Wayne-Barry Bonds
Jay & Wayne-Hello Brooklyn
TI & Eminem-Touchdown

I thought Eminem and TI on the same track on the album TI vs TIP would be a no brainer classic. EM and TI vs Slim Shady and TIP should have been epic. Instead, we got Eminem rapping about candy paint :snoop:

Black Republican... most underwhelming collabo of all time. I thought the first Nas/Jay collabo was gonna be monumental instead it was lackluster :scusthov:

Jay and Nas on Black Republicans was not as good as I thought it would be though I still liked the song.

Came in here to say this.

I used to run around with the "Analyze That" joint that DJ Ill Will put together, with them and Lord Tariq on it, and loved that track! So I always wanted them to actually do an official joint together.

But "Black Republicans" fell wild short.

Mac Dre & Suga Free - It's like they both premeditate the collaboration too much and end up doing too much instead of sticking to their comfort zone they do their best to represent their brands/styles
