there is some truth is his hating ...not wack but not on top of his game...and define my name is just ok


The beats Premo did on the De La Soul album are nothing short of amazing. Based on that I don’t think we have anything to truly worry about regarding Light-Years.

Lets remember that Nas chose NOW for this collaboration to see the light of day. I’m sure there are various reasons why it took so long but after the Hit-Boy series I think we can be safe in trusting Nas’s musical decision making. So I for one am optimistic this is going to be great.

Yeah agree Im not that huge on the De La Premo beats either I feel like it sounds a bit dated, but maybe that was the intention?

I was a big fan of Nas working with Hit Boy because of this fact, the production sounded fresh and modern, but we’ll have to wait and see.

I can’t stand none of their characters. They all try too hard depending on their mood. Joe budden is the least and that’s saying a lot but none of it is genuine to me the type of convos he has unless he has a relationship with the artist. I can see ish trying too hard being a jay eater with the ice grill Saying some slick shyt. Flip would show love and be on his queens shyt. But to me, shyt would be a garbage interview. i know all previous artists in this nas run have all been on joe and jada and were all good moments. so I expect nas to show up as well and playing a track for them. If Jada is a feature…. :banderas:
It could be a good interview but they don't have a relationship and I don't even think Joe would be able to get Nas to open up..

And them nikkas all actually are fans of Nas.

That Clipse interview and them getting Malice to let his guard down a lil bit is a good example
