Kool Keith talks about when he first met Nas

[Crumple]

Stay in ya place my guy. Me and @Cladyclad have an understanding.

K cool.

 

[BmoreGorilla]

This track is perfect, listen to it.

Meh. shyt a little too left field for me but I respect your opinion


Now that I think about it I do remember him being on Prince Among Thieves

How bout u read the YouTube comments. It reflects what's being said on here.

I'll check them out.

I just feel that the major label machine has a sway over Nas fans.

Ppl in this post did not hear Kool Keith's Dr.Octagon, Sex Style, Masters of Illusion,Cenobites, so much of what makes Keith great.

Nas, especially back then, wasn't a peoples person. This was written about him in some of the earlier articles about him...he preferred to be to himself/left alone

If u ever listened to his podcast and his interview with MC Lyte. She literally called him mystery man.

What are u talking about major label machine? Nas has literally been getting shytted on by hip hop media since IWW. U have no idea what he talking about right now. He never played the game.

Thanks for giving it a chance.

That Prince of Thieves joint is incredibly dope!

Keith acknowledged that Nas was high and said he probably smoked 20 blunts, so I don't think he was taking it personally.

It sounded like he just felt vindicated that he was right not to put other rappers on a pedastal and not wanting to meet them.

Its hard to believe the other thing he said though, he just plays funk and rock? He never played Illmatic or bought a rappers album?

Son was acting like he's above hip hop. shyt is wack I absolutely hate when rappers talk like that.

This thread is hilarious

Btw Kool Keith is a clown. I know he was with Ultramagnetic and I had some older cousins who used to bump them. That shyt used to go hard. Outside of that I couldn’t tell you one song he made. I know I’ve heard him rap before and that shyt was wack. I remember seeing him in the Source back in the day and he was rocking a Elvis wig

lmaooo.. the famous Elvis wig. I was like how could anybody even take this nygga serious.

Why would u think Nas is bipolar? I know bipolar people very close to me and I've never seen that trait in him.

Carmen said she thought Nas was bi-polar but from the way she described it, she was probably mixing it up with borderline personality disorder like most people do when they mention bi-polar lol

Love Keiths work from Ultra to Cenobites to Octagon, to all the joints with Kutmasta Kurt. But he's ALWAYS had a chip on his shoulder about other rappers. Ultra came out the gate dissing Slick Rick, Kool Moe Dee and LL in the Traveling at the Speed of Thought video, I'm not surprised him meeting a young Nas (who by all accounts was antisocial and in a forced interaction) went left.

Yea she said she was begging him to tested but he staunchly refused because he didn’t want any treatments or medication to interfere with his ability to write.

To him its probably the equivalent of working at McDonalds but never wanting to eat there. But you're supposed to have a passion for this. He's probably a fan of 80s Hip hop at least.
