It's not an album I play a lot....but I loved it that summer, not a typical NY album, but that was my first and only (as of now) trip to NY and I was playing 'Untitled' the whole trip...

I still fukk with 'Queens Get The Money', 'Testify', 'We're Not Alone', '******'.....I play 'Testify' all the time....such a dope, laid back, but angry and raw track....love it.

The reason Nas is the greatest is that each of his albums chronicles moments in his life or the culture..that's why many of his projects although not perfect, are timeless. Stillmatic (his return to the top), God's Son (losing his mum), Hip Hop is Dead (trying to save hip hop when it was nothing but ringtone rap), Untitled (black injustice), Life is Good (his divorce).... no other rapper has done it like him...

I struggle to think what his next album will be about.. :lupe:


Haven't heard god son in a while

Explain to me how it is about his mom? Is dance on there?

And I cosign. He doesn't have to make forced grown man music like Hov (30 something)

He really just talks about his life and it's full of gems and maturity

My version is classic with the skits included makes it hit home so much harder to me.
