Nas - I Can

[Prodigital]

One of the weakest beats Nas ever rhymed over.

No true nas fan would say this, esco has far worst beats, plenty of them

This song was my shyt tho, gave me motivation as a young black youth. The godsons career is filled with plenty of rare gems such as this that other artist could never replicate

 

[god shamgod]

this song fukkin sucks but the 3rd verse was always dope to me

 

[yo moms]

song is corny. didnt inspire me to do anything with my life except put some jay z on instead

 

[xd21]

Song is still fire to this day.

 

[Piano Reevez]

 

[Jone2three45]

[OG Talk]

never really liked the song, but definitely appreciated that there was something for the black kids on the radio..

The same way I feel about it...

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

Egypt was the place that Alexander the Great went
He was so shocked at the mountains with black faces
Shot up they nose to impose what basically
Still goes on today, you see?

...tell 'em Nas

My history teacher heard me quoting that shyt in class one day and tried to go in on me.

"Alexander The Great? REALLY? How?...He never used a cannon..I think you're confusing him for Napolean Bonaparte"

I just told him "Hell, I don't know...maybe he used a catapult or sum'n"


Nas failed me that day
