I've been going through Spotify premo playlists and was hearing fantastic beats given to people like screwball, krum snatcha, and group home.

He will lace Nas.

Lol that's not even the half of it. He's given HEATERS to French and Brit backpackers and even weirdo spoken word shyt through the years

I never even heard this before:ohhh:


This was a huge deal back in the day. J-Live was one of the more popular underground artists and was preparing a classic concept album. I believe he was either signed to or about to sign to Def Jam and the album got shelved. This album/song was a hot topic back on SOHH in 2000.

Truth.

I used to listen to his sh*t a lot around '95-'96, when he dropped "Braggin' Writes". He was a teacher in Brooklyn, a little after he dropped all his early underground singles. I remember him popping up on all the college shows back then and speaking about rapping and being a school teacher, at the same time, lol. Really dope MC, at the time.

Steve Stoute confirmed they had no actual finalized tracklist for the OG Double Album before it leaked.

I know but it haunts me lol even a tentative would be satisfying. But I accepted that and I look forward to whatever Nas drops because I know what it is will get play from me for years.
