nas was actually poppin when the two biggest legends of this rap shyt were living. r.i.p to the 2 legends. it was always pac,big ,nas. jay was a nobody. when jay took over, he knew who he had to dethrone to completely rule the kingdom. we know the outcome of that battle. nas said: 'the king is back, time to return the crown'. as matter of fact nas yanked that piece of jewelery out of jiggas hand and has been on an incredible run of solid to classic album releases since. god son (metacritic rating 81% universal acclaim) lost tapes (metacr. rating 81% universal acclaim) streets disciple(metacr. rating 80% positive rating)
hip hop is dead(metacr. rating 79% positive ratings) untitled(metacr. rating 71% positive reviews) life is good(metacr. rating 81% universal acclaim). that run as far as critical acclaim and quality of music is unmatched by anyone from ny imo, and i didn't include it was written and maybe the most influential hip hop album illmatic.
now i judge an mc by his mic skill and discography and thus NAS takes this easily.
