What top MC wont eventually make a bad album? Its gonna happen. I hate Nasir, but so be it. 1 shytty album in the bunch aint gonna hurt him. This happened at 44 yrs old.. not 24 or 34. Nas is very smart. He gonna do shyt right next go..

Now can yall get off Salaam Remy dyck now? Yall asked for people like Kanye and here you have it..lol


Salaam Remi gets waaaaaaay too much disrespect. Not straight up disrespect like nikkas straight up saying "Salaam Remi is wack!" but dudes saying that Nas has horrible beats on his album. Definitely in contention for one of the most underrated producers ever. Don't recall too many producers that have cranked out as many dope ass shyt as Salaam that gets shytted on.

Drop the songs and lets have an adult discussion

Some of you just say things and provide no depth.. not saying that is you but breh made that claim so let’s discuss his theory

Nasir is a great project.

Album is decent, Scorpion was the most disappointing album by a top tier hip hop artist.

It's not really that hard to do fam. All this proves to me is that his albums get far more criticism than they deserve. And I like this NASIR album.

Last real nikka alive was underwhelming and unnecessary after Ether

The production on Book of ryhmes is trash and the song itself is archaic. Nas even finds himself rambling off beat in one of the verses

Revolutionary Warefare is a tired song. The production is average and lyrically there is nothing that stands out or memorable about the record.

I’m also being generous as it pertains to Mastermind because the production on that record was underwhelming... but I’ll let that jawn rock

7 - 3 = 4.

I’m taking

Bonjur
Adam & Eve
White Label
Not For Radio
Simple Things

Over all three of those jawns I just broke down. Mind you I really should go in Mastermind as well..

This makes me want to put Gods Son on now

See previous post for break down on God Son

The proudest on Nazareth Savage was underwhelming. It’s dope lyrically but it’s genuinely nothing special

Remember the times isn’t dope to me at all. Nothing about remember the times stands out to me.

7-2 = 5

Untitled

Black president is corny.. the concept is cool but the production is cheesy

The production You can’t stop us now is tired. Lyrically it’s cool but I wouldn’t call the record a stand out by any stretch of the imagination

Testify is a verse? It’s unfinished

Project Roach? What do you like about this record? Nothing about Project roach stands out to me

7-4 = 3

I’ll get to the rest on my lunch break

I respect your opinon but I strongly disagree. Last real nig alive wasnt just about Jay. There was alot he touched on. You should listen again

The beat on book of ryhmes wasnt great but not bad. If your criticising the "rambling" then I think you missed the point of the song

So. I literally disagree on everything u said here. At this point there no point in a back and for cause this is all opinions from here. U just shytted on the production for Book Of Rhymes which I cant even mentally fathom and let's me know we are looking for different things musically. For instance. To say Last Real nikka Alive was not needed makes no sense cause he basically gave the backstory of him and Jay's beef and even confirmed some shyt people speculated for years about his issues with Biggie. The song was dope and informative. And theres nothing on Nasir seeing it aside from maybe Adam and Ave.

My criticism, at least the short is centered around his production. It’s the most universal criticism of most of his albums.

You’re aware of this criticism

It’s why I love Nasir so much. The production is great.
