.....That Nas loves "hip hop" way more than Jay-Z?

Also that he appreciates and respects his fans more

I mean I get it. They both rich, both GOATED, both battle tested. But in the past decade Nas has released 9 albums. Jay has released 2.

We just talking about passion and love for the sport/culture.


As a fan of rap. What does this mean to you?

I think Jay cares a lot more about public perception than Nas.

I wouldn't be surprised if we never get another Jay Z album. He used to bundle his albums to get fake platinum sales.

Now that Billboard has put a stop to that I think he's sacred to drop because he's afraid of what the numbers are gonna look like

Jay don't have too much to talk about at this point.

Jigga Bell Econ 101, Art Deco Hov, Yonce's Man, Street Legend, Rap God, Billionaire, Blue did this and that

What's left?
Isn't that why he tried to bite Nas/Kendrick/Cole style on 4:44? Something he was once mocked. :mjlol:

Such a pretentious and hollow album.

He dropped an every year between 96-03, unlike Nas

And when he came out of retirement the longest he took between KC to Magna Carta was 2 years. How long did it take Nas to release a new album after LIG dropped? 5-6 years?

Dude is gonna be turning 55 this year, he’s doesn’t need to be putting out 9 albums of [mostly] forgettable material like Nas

He's getting older and most likely doesn't have enough to talk about for an album to be made. I'm sure he's good with the occasional feature and fukking Bey for the rest of his life at this point

Besides, Jay knows he hit GOAT status years ago with less albums. Nas is just trying to catch up at this point

Jay still loves hip hop. Don't get it twisted
