[Rev]

No kidding, but does that mean he listens to the albums...especially the album that came out before that song was released, since you wanna be so specific??

Stop trying to ruin the joke.

The Booth is complete garbage

 

[Nino Soprano]

I always thought phil collins in the air tonight was the inspiration.

The slow buildup and the sudden drop of the drums

Pretty sure Nas has said so himself and the producer as well (I think it was Chucky Thompson)

I might be crazy but I could've swore someone said Nas stole that idea from Andre.

Nas spoke to Rolling Stone magazine about this song: "I'm a huge fan of Phil Collins and I just wanted to take the vibe from 'In the Air Tonight.' 'One Mic' is just about the power.

He listened to a ASAP Rocky album so why wouldn't he listen to a Ja Rule album?

 

[C-Styles]

he talking about his low voice volume to yelling.

Nas did it in One Mic.

C-Styles is obviously a garbage artist therefore he does not know how to correctly explain himself when referring to real art.

Thankfully I listen to plenty of underground acts like C-styles so I am fluent in "garbage".

i was gonna dap you, then you spoke nonsense

 

[NvrCMyNut]

I always thought it was Nas attempt at replicating 'The Way I Am'

@ the thought of Nas listening to a Ja Rule album

You do realize Nas almost signed to his label?
