I can understand that part though. From a pure DJ perspective, Hov has more songs you can play in that setting. Most of the tracks they warm the crowd up with are either club anthems, hits, ladies tracks etc. Hov has more of those than Nas, and he has more recent records you can play too. Nas clearly moved away from feeding the streets with anthems and shyt at some point, while Jay kept going. Made You Look might be one of the last ones right? Couple years later in 2004 Jay had the Black Album, with multiple radio hits AND street anthems like What More Can I Say, PSA, 99 Problems etc. Nas released Street's Disciple. To me that's the point where things really started separating in terms of what Nas was focused on (conceptual albums, more conscious shyt) and what Jay was focused on (putting points on the board, singles, Madison Square Garden, etc).

He had a few others after Made You Look but never popped off the same like The Don and theifs Theme


Wild part is you're more likely to hear Nas at a NBA or MLB game than the club as we've seen but ah well

Nas was my man ten grand, but I did not see how coming out of this beef victorious. Up to that point he made all type of classic songs, but nothing that showed any type of battle skills. Then I heard the Pac sample, and it was :wow: from there

The Stan wars should have BEEN ended, but nothing wrong with this annual observance:smugbiden:
