Jay-z and Nas at Life Is Good Album Release Party

[Piff Perkins]

GOAT rappers

I can't get over it brehs, this pic still look morally wrong to me. The stan wars of high school will never die in my mind

Nas won

 

[Drew Wonder]

"So I started lurking the forum and shyt right?"

"and them nyggas STILL arguing about who won like me and you give a fukk"

 

[jadillac]

Damn, makes me happy to see two dudes come full circle. And seeing Jay in a white T and gold chains like he's still the same dude.

Make you sad to think Pac and Big died over some bs when they could've been like this too.

A part of my soul died the night Jay brought Nas out at I declare War and signed him to defjam.


That was the day I realized Nas was a lil nikka and not a big boy. shyt broke my heart

Real shyt...Those who didnt go thru the high school wars back then dont understand how deep that rivalry is... It was bigger than just music.

yup, I was a huge Nas fan in highschool. I hung out with the car crew (the first nikka who gets a car and has his friends in it all the time) and my nikkas used to blast Takeover singing them lyrics directly to me during the Nas diss parts while I'm in the backseat with the face the whole song.


When Ether dropped I was ing tho

[Hussein Fonzarelli]

I hope for some more Ghetto Techno releases in the future

cant front


one of the better Jay songs ever recorded



he done catched holy ghost on that shyt

 

[Tom]

Jay aint sign Nas..lol...LA Reid did...

perception is everything dawg, and Nas image took a slight beating in the eyes of stans like me during that time.


Then Kelis breaking the bank on that nikka sealed the deal as far as loses.


But Life is Good is a beautiful start for winning again

Crazy

Just because Nas and Jay are two of the greatest rappers of all-time, it doesn't mean they should do an album together. That seems like a forced concept because their styles don't mesh very well.

Nas & Common/black thought/any wu-tang member >> Nas & Jay
Jay & eminem/jadakiss/Ti >> Nas & Jay

fukk it, solo albums are usually much better than collaborative albums.

 

[OPTiMO]

I'm guessing Jay-Z actually wants to do an album with him. Maybe Nas is the only thing stopping it from coming to fruition. Nas is known to be a little stingy like that.

stop



nas would jump on any opportunity to get on an album with jay, just in a bizzness sense

I agree but if Jay Z were to rap on a Nas collabo album the same way he diid on Jay Electronica's "Shiny Suit Theory" then I could definitely see it being a great/classic album.

That verse was the best verse I've heard Jay spit in years, better than any verse on BPIII and Watch the throne. First time I heard it I was like damn, I could picture Nas spitting the same exact verse. Jay Z can be profound when he chooses to be, he just doesn't choose to go that route for whatever reason tho

 

[Zach Lowe]

Nas > Shawn

 

[Capitol]

Why nas so sexy tho?
