That's a pretty cool pic for something that may have been shot on the fly. Their poses, the way they just happen to be wearing the opposite colors, there is a little symbolism there.

I know Nas heard about a lot of guys that could compete for his spot, but man for those that really sat down and listened to early Ras.... dude was scary good.
I'd like to hear Nas honest perspective of when he first heard "Remain Anonymous" or "Won't Catch Me Runnin".

Both are two of my favorites from Ras.

Remain Anonymous is just nuts. That second verse when the first half he uses a word using a double entendre, and then gives the definition of the word.

"I seen the scene from the outside lookin in through a window pane
Pain; hypertension ruptured the varicose vein"

nikka said "I control more English than Margaret Thatcher"...BRUH

We can say that, but I don't see that as a real collaboration. Who knows if these guys had any idea of who else verses would be used for this promo.
At least on the 1999 version of The Anthem, you can tell that the emcees are competing with each other somewhat.
