If Jay got killed on his own shyt, then what about Nas on Life's a bytch?

[The_Third_Man]

I'd said it for years, AZ's verse on Life's A bytch is the most memorable and well known verse on Illmatic. Also arguably the best debut verse of all time.

come on now

People know Az verse more than "Rappers I monkey-flip ‘em with the funky rhythm..." , “I'm the young city bandit, hold myself down singlehanded..." , "It ain’t hard to tell, I excel, then prevail The mic is contacted, I attract clientele" and "Straight up, shyt is real and any day could be your last in the jungle..."?! no way

 

[Billy Ocean]

Nas held his own. Jay got smashed. Get over it.

[Billy Ocean]

That whole "Nas got murdered by AZ" narrative was started by salty Jay stans still upset their boy got thoroughly outshined on a track by the most overrated rapper of all time.

 

[3rdWorld]

Why you didn't mention Pac who is the king of being anonymous on his own shyt?

 

[Scorsese]

Nas got washed by Az on "Life's A bytch"?

Shyt, he got bodied by fukkin Lake on "Revolutionary Warfare" the year after he said that "Eminem murdered you on your own shyt" line.

 

[jimihendrixheadband]

Another hiphop myth. Do you listen to music or just skim through it. Jay z more than held his own on renegade. Everybody was surprised how em came off on thr track but to say he bodied jay is a stretch

The Booth hates Eminem The Booth says he kills a prominent black rapper on the same song

 

[Danie84]

EveryBODY and their mama knew AZ came thru with the Guest-verse, tho

 

[Yoda]

"fukk who's the baddest, a person's status depends on salary"

 

[Jack Trippa 3z company ho]

Yeah, AZ took it on LAB, but Nas verse is still classic.

Jays verses on renegade were fast forwarded to hear Ems verses, and I'm not much of an em fan at all.

 

[Farrinto]

It's kind of more impressive when you see it on paper

 

[BBG]

"fukk who's the baddest, a person's status depends on salary"

just the opener


"Realizing the realism of life in actuality"
