Nas and Rakim sit down Interview (CLASSIC)

[UpAndComing]

My first recollection of Hip Hop was listening to Biggie in '94
In 2006, Nas came out with Hip Hop is Dead, and made me go back and look at all the old school artists, from the 70s till now

Rakim's "Ain't no Joke" was the first rap song that I ever memorized word for word, bar for bar. Paid in Full still amazes me to this day

I actually remember when this video came out in 2005/2006. Had a nikka amazed. 2 of the GOATs right here

 

[Knights89]

Good interview but I lost just a bit of respect for Rakim when he told Nas to his face how much he appreciated UBR and then turned around and had some type of beef against it

[Piff Perkins]

Nas missed an opportunity with HHID imo. Could have gotten Rakim and some other folks on that album, and some better production.

 

[KENNY DA COOKER]

Wow I ain't never seen this before

Watched this the other day. I had no idea it wasn't posted already. Loved the part when they were talking about jewelry.

Wasn't that the other way around? He didn't like it at first then he came around to it?

That's what I wanna know too

 

[Ziggiy]

That's what I wanna know too

Nah he told Nas to his face how much he appreciated the shout out THEN turned heel face in another interview a couple years later saying he didn't appreciate Nas putting his kids names and his government name in the song. It came off real... Snaky because he seemed like he REALLY felt a ways about it...


But Nas didn't really put anything out there that a simple Google search couldn't confirm.


Rakim is the Gawd and Nas is the GOAT so it hurts to even have to criticize Ra like that but if he felt a way I Don't know why he didn't say it to Nas face either during the interview or in private afterwards
