Nas - Book of Rhymes just :wow:

[SirBiatch]

The beat for Book of rhymes fit the mood perfectly.

U just tweaking hard

just because it fits the mood (barely) doesn't mean it's not a boring beat.

keep drinking the kool aid, though.

it's not. It's just a Nas track on a known album. and as the years have gone by, and the Alc dikkridery has reached breaking point, now you get people saying it was a superb beat.

It never was. I was in college when Book of Rhymes came out. Nobody said "yo that beat is nuts." If anything, "Tick Tock" (a song I'm not a big fan of and came out a lil while later) was the beat a couple of heads really liked around my way. That's classic Alc.

though, if you ask me, Alc's best ever beat. It certainly KILLS the one in this thread

Its not that type of beat to just wow you. Its the just great beat for the style of song that he was trying to make. Just perfect execution all around.

What's the difference between that and a mediocre beat?

Your post don't make sense at all. Your first response was about "beat" but not the song. My thread about how crazy and brillant song was..

In your post and you said, "Nobody said, "yo that beat is nuts". You're the reason why the hip-hop became . All you care about the damn f*cking beat? .

I meant its suppose to be more mellow and chill.

[Brooklynzson]

My favorite Nas song

 

[tybo]

The production on that song was GREAT!!! Down to the sounds of the pages turning. Really helps you visualize the moment.

 

[Afromaticz]

This track is one of the reasons why Nas will forever be one of the GOATS.
And Alchemist laced him man what the hell that beat is super dope

 

[Anti-Anime]

nas always bringing the creativity every album.

The money's ya religion sky the limit live life
Numbers is big business makes the poor live trife
The glimmers of hope provoke those without dollars to dream
Through your existence become wealthy, knowledge is king
Pimps and card sharks thiefs murderers with hard luck
Addicts and fiends prostitutes passin' for teens is my society
Cops that shoot blacks is routine for notoriety
Grow up watchin' well dressed nikkas with charms
Beautiful ladies on their arms
Dangerous new cars was my fantasy for Nas
Rubbing my lips with Campophenique
Still behind the ears wet turned out to be
Pioneers vets amongst hustlers crack sellers and liars and squares...

 

[Igloo Stix]

That whole album is underrated. And this is my fave from it.
