Nas’ Purple gotta be one of his best songs ever

[Fortunate Lee]

3 perfect verses..the nostalgic beat/vibe.

Hip Hop will never be this good again



He sighs with eyes that seen a war too many

 

[scorpino]

That time between Nastradamus and Stillmatic gave us some of nas’ best music

 

[Big Mel]

That time between Nastradamus and Stillmatic gave us some of nas’ best music

Said no one ever.

 

[Fortunate Lee]

That time between Nastradamus and Stillmatic gave us some of nas’ best music

It’s one of the greatest comebacks in music..

I don't like the way P Diddy did Shyne with different lawyers...

Why it’s mentioned in my rhyme f**k it, it’s just the intro, hate it or love it.

 

[Piffiztheanswer]

Like it bump it or dump it

 

[wild100sboy]

Beat is fire and NaS did his thing

 

[I'm Blackman]

The hood love you but behind your back they pray for the day
A bullet hit your heart and ambulances take you away
That ain't love it's hate, think of all the mothers at wakes
Whose sons you killed, and you ain't got a cut on your face?

 

[Dusty Bake Activate]

Top 5 non-Illmatic Nas song.

He never fell off. That is myth

 

[Fortunate Lee]

I never thought he really ‘fell’ off..I Am was a great album.

Nastradamus was very lackluster tho

 

[Taco]

One of the best songs in hip hop period. The song is flawless.

 

[Piff Perkins]

Flawless lyricism and one of the best examples of Nas' premier strength: evocative lyricism.

definition: bringing strong images, memories, or feelings to mind.

 

[mathematik]

“Unmarked police cars roam the streets hard, the heat is God
Somebody tell these shorties reach for the stars
Instead they tell 'em how to reach through the bars, holding a mirror
Lookin down a tear in jail, making weapons to kill ya”
