Kool Keith talks about when he first met Nas

[Crumple]

Nas didn’t kiss G Rap’s ring that was Big Pun.

I know, I wrote Punk instead of Pun lol my bad
Going to change it.

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

I don't care if you live in New York.

What if you were born in 2000 in Kansas and you moved to New York?

I don't know you, but you think you can tell me what I relate to? On any level.

Boi I know u ain't from here. I seen u. Who the fukk u kidding fam? I try to be respectful to u on here for certain reasons. But chill out my guy.

I understand the obsessed fandom of Nas on The Coli.

I took it more as a joke a d of course Nas is great.

But how much I see ppl defending Nas' arrogance here over Kool Keith??!

That shyt needs to stop right now. Full stop.

Remember Nas samples Keith on It was written take it in blood.

Arrogance lol. Dude was probably just in his zone why are you making it more than what it is

Okay, but I don't like how Nas was high and just nonchalant about meeting Keith.

Punk kneeled down and kissed G Rap's ring when he met him.

Rap is that serious. And of course Nas is about the craft. But Nas sounded arrogant.

Kool Keith grew up in a more serious period in NYC than Nas.

I'm born in 81, what year were you born in and were you born in NYC?

Come on, you know Kool Keith is very crucial to New York City itself!

NO rapper has put on more for the OGs than Nas has. PERIOD. Nas was high. Not arrogant. If anything Keith was the one being arrogant. Wtf man and this nikka didn't even respect Nas enough to wanna meet him himself. Nas is the reason Hip Hop Is 50 existed. Nas had a bunch of OGs on stage for the grammys. Nas is out here giving OGs pensions n shyt. All for the love of this shyt. This shyt Keith talking about is a non issue. shyt wasn't even worth bringing up given the climate and the shyt Nas is on right now. Nas ain't diss him. He just ain't dikkride him either.

Exactly. It was a forced meeting. Nas was high af minding his business. Keith was doing him and didn't wanna meet Nas. That's it. What makes Keith look bad is him harping on it.

Jesus, what is going on in here?

I'm not from New York. But I felt you were dissing me.

That's why I asked what year you were born.

I don't see Keith doing bad here. And I can't see how you can rate Nas so high and Kool Keith not.

I feel like you're doing that because Nas was promoted more and you just researched Kool Keith.

Or perhaps you were born in the seventies, knew Ultra, knew Octagon and decided that you respected Nas more. I can respect that.

But Kool Keith is a treasure to Hip Hop.

I just can't see anyone disrespecting him.

Okay.

But as Keith said he wasn't checking for rappers either. It's like how Ghost recently said no one impressed him. And that when you get older no one impressed anyone - which I disagree with.

But Kool Keith was always wwaay different.

If someone was heralded as a great it doesn't mean everyone has to get inline.

RZA said Gza was just as good as Rakim.

Exactly. Nas didn't really deal with rappers or industry nikkas like that either back then. Son was reserved and antisocial and paranoid. So he always used to stay high and even had trouble doing interviews cause of this. U can't get mad cause somebody on the same shyt u on.

I'm not disrespecting him by saying he's not greater than Nas. Not many rappers are. That doesn't take away from Keith's greatness in his own right in the slightest. I like Keith. And Keith got a close relationship wit Roc Marci which is dope as well. shyt I'm one of the people who would say Kendrick does a lotta shyt Kool Keith has already done. It's not about dissing Kool Keith. It's about calling son out for making an issue out of a non issue.

Okay. My bad if I came off bothered by all of this.

And yes Nas is great on so many levels. I'm just shocked to see this. This video was way out of left field.

It kinda is a major thing to me, because I have love for both artists. But Kool Keith has been my favorite artist for years.

I got to hang out with him a bit a couple months back and we took photos. At his Toronto show.

He was very down to earth and literally "cool". Demeanor and style.

I know.

Is it just me or do you guys think this whole thing is pretty epic?! Lol
