Did Nas catch heat when he released Black Girl Lost?

[ThirdAct]

I never got the issue with oochie wally, was it the video? Its kinda vulgar...but its basically a song about sex.

Nah the issue wasn't any kind of sexist thing - more rap nerds and critics saying Nas isn't allowed do sex/club songs.

No, patriarchical, reactionary misogyny was still regarded as consciousness back then

 

[Wildhundreds]

That feminine nitpicking is this new age shyt.. We didn't have social media to sit around and gossip all day with..

 

[Goat poster]

No.. song didn’t even get attention


the album dropped middle of summer of 96

tupac hit ‘em up dropped a month earlier and it was a wrapped for other artist outside of pac and big that summer and then pac death a few months later and it was crazy here in LA at that time

IWW was the first east coast album to debut at #1 on billboard 200

What "wrapped" are you talking about?
