Albums Nas & DJ Premier - Light-Years (Discussion Thread)

[spliz]

One things for certain. Nas is the rapper of the year EASILY. From the features to this shyt. Son rapped his ass off this year.

Only solidifies Nas' legacy. Does nothing for Premier's for me.

When the song's hit on this, they hit in a way a lot of the Hit Boy stuff didn't but at the same time, I never felt like I couldn't wait to hear a remix when listening to the Hit Boy work like I did on some of these.

NY State of Mind pt 3, Junkie and 3rd Childhood are all hurt by the production despite Nas going off on them imo.

Hitboy's beats were more diverse, and dope! i felt most were poorly mixed. Would have been dope to have a few Hitboy joints on this album though...

All Premo slander getting negged after a minute of Pause Tapes.

Right, dude is beasting on this top to bottom
/don't get the slander at all , showed his versatility/some of his other chambers too.

I feel like Sons could’ve been a damn single in a different time frame. That’s one of the best beats on the album.

Sons gives me Deja Vu vibes. Absolutely love that one.

Every man is a vessel, my son is my reflection
He from the highest heaven, I try not to possess him
Allow him to be tested...

Preemo told yall not to listen to his beats from laptop/PC speakers!

Buddy I'm listening to this on $300 Sennheisers, my point still stands.

This might be the Crown Apple flowing through me but I can't get past My Story/Your Story. Love it when 2 rappers got chemistry and can rap in tandem. You don't hear none of that shyt anymore unless it's from rappers already established in the game.

All this friendly ass "my brother" shyt but neither one of yall can go back and forth on a track

 

[Cladyclad]

These beats are for Jurassic 5, Dilated Peoples & Black Moon type groups.

Preme aint help Nas
Nas aint help Preme

20 years too late
