Life Is Good is so much better than MCHG...

[TheBEASTCOASTrevival]

IMO second worst Nas project

well i guess we agree to disagree

"Summer On Smash" was the only weak track on Life Is Good. Every other song on there is great... not good, but GREAT.

shyt even the bonus tracks were some of Nas best tracks of ALL TIME

Still one of my favorite hiphop albums that dropped this past few years. I play a large bulk of these songs (including the bonus tracks) several times a month. I made breakfast with Stay on repeat this morning. And I like Jay-Z but I didn't find my self playing MCHG too much after a few weeks save for a few songs.

Life is good is one of my favorite Nas projects...a mature Nas growing as an artist with each release, Jay still talking about selling dope and buying warhols

look at my hublot and i feel like the time is right
cop another basquiat at auction night (haha!)

Outlandish posts like these are why I can never stan a rapper again, it leads you to saying dikkriding shyt that looks funny in the light.

Nas, Jay Z and Pac are my three favorite rappers ever but you'll never catch me doing this type of shyt . I must have looked like a clown when I used to stan Joe Budden and Lupe on the old boards. I can't believe the shyt I'm hearing in this thread. All but one song was GREAT. Nas' album in which he didn't rap about shyt he hadn't rapped about before aside from his daughter and his divorce was much more "mature" than Jay rapping about the same shyt he always rapped about + his daughter + his take on giving.

Neither album took large risks. Nas just showed up to rap the whole album and Jay didn't. LIG is a better, a 4 mic album, but I could l never have you guys on a album review team with this level of bias lol. Actually, I would because it would make for great entertainment and would make me look better.

Real talk, you're buggin. I don't hear anyone talk about MCHG. And you're from Queens too?

Yea I'm from queens so what? I only tell the truth and I never hear ppl talkin bout LIG (or Nas to be honest) outside of the coli...he's the most revered rapper here but it's the exact opposite in real life...was MCHG Hov's best album? Absolutely not but he sure knows how to keep himself hot ...nobodies talkin about nas like that lets b real...his career has been pretty damn disappointing as a whole despite having one of the GOAT albums ever in his catalog....LIG was cool but it came and went to me....I expect more from the guy if we're gonna put him on this pedestal....proceed with the negs as always happens every time I point out some truth about underwhelming ass Nas

LIG is a better album, period. Lyrically and song wise. MCHG has some good production but Jay sounds lost on it. Give that album to ASAP Rocky and it becomes a good project. Where I'm from we value quality, not who has the most shine or who "won" on the charts. And by those measurements LIG wins.

Are you a casual listener, or do you really listen to hip hop?

 

[KnowledgeOfSelf17]

Nas- perfect artist-why this solid album came and went

Jay-z-Perfect Business-why songs on this album got so many spins

digest that

Hardcore hiphop fan...listened to every Nas album...these are the albums I fukk w heavy: illmatic, IWW, stillmatic , god son, lost tapes....I am had some great joints , obviously nastradamus was garbage , juice, streets disciple/untitled/HHID<----who gives a shyt?

And LIG? It was cool, doesn't have much replay value to me...like I said I expect more
