"I coulda bought a place in DUMBO before it was DUMBO
For like two million, same building today is worth 25 million
Guess how I'm feeling? Dumbo!"

Clady: Hov made us have a conversation about investing

truly inspired! now all I need is some art

I just want a Picasso, in my casa
No, my castle
I'm a hassa, no I'm a a$$hole

 

[No Homo]

Hes Performing on amazon now before the nba cup game

I know this album ass when Jay Z is the topic now


that ass album sold 4x more the Nas last 8 albums combined

With juked stats because it was a marketing write off for Tidal. Marketing budget was 10x more than the last 8 Nas albums combined. He refuse to drop another album until he figure out how to manipulate the numbers under the current rules

It's alright he gonna drop another "used to be on the corner now I'm in the corner office" verse any year now.

Jay z going to a basketball game trended more than this 30 year monstrosity of an album

thats how wack this shyt is lol

 

[Cladyclad]

2.3mil streams on Friday for the album (Spotify). Which is god awful. I'm not gonna post this in the thread since nikkas already think I'm hating but it's clear this shyt is NOT being received well. Go look at Genius too. Nobody is looking up the lyrics, barely anyone transcribing them etc. And before you try to say it's because the lyrics are wack (they aren't)...it's because people aren't listening besides a very niche group of old heads.

This is a disaster.

Who cares... real talk

Yall gon spend the whole thread reminiscing on older records. Trackmasters got Nas shyt better than that. See how that works?

Facts. Getting quite sad in here, cats need to make another thread for other shyt, OR just up the threads for those albums. Some of these cats threw stones at Hit-Boy and are now acting like son is the goat producer

 

[Ziggiy]

He just performed Welcome To The Underground and Git Ready at the Amazon Prime concert

And I wouldn’t have it ANY other way

Album is fire, i just wanted some uptempo type aggressive beats from Premier like these. These beats are too safe, that's why some are critiquing it so hard.

[The War Report]

Haven't listened to the album but from the comments, Premo's beats are uninspired. I wonder what a Nas/Pete Rock album would sound like.

@Ziggiy is the most respectable Nas Stan, what are we looking at breh?
