I gave it a real thorough listen and it's dope as fukk.. Muthafuggas are either playing this shyt on their phone or shytty laptop because it sounds clean as shyt in the whip or sonically inclined headphones.

Nasty, Esco, and Nasir is literally one of the best imaginative songs ever! He literally rapped from the perspective of his musical personas:damn:
People have been doing this for years. This is the GOAT

I'm the biggest nas fan there is

This album is bad

And yes it's due to premo beats

Nas trying to float on beats that guru would turn down and biggie and jeru wouldn't bother with.

Son (nas) im surprised you run with them.....

After the gems hit boy gave nas I'm sorry this is a far step down. Salaam remi did better sorry.

MY LIFE IS REAL 4.25/5
GIT READY 4/5
NY STATE OF MIND PT. 3 2/5
WELCOME TO THE UNDERGROUND 3.75/5
MADMAN 3.5/5
PAUSE TAPES 3.5/5

SONS (YOUNG KINGS) 3.5/5
IT’S TIME 4/5

MY STORY YOUR STORY 3.5/5
BOUQUET (TO THE LADIES) 3/5
JUNKIE 4.25/5
SHINE TOGETHER 3/5
3RD CHILDHOOD 4/5

Over all it’s a 3.5/3.75 mic album.

Still is getting some play from me though.

Premo should’ve read the room & tried to produce some sort of late 90s/early 2000s type of beat on parts of the album.

Understand they were aiming for the late 80s & early 90 heads though.
