Nas - King’s Disease (Discussion Thread)

[Ziggiy]

And all due respect, if that were to happen, I would not care one bit

fukk a Grammy

This post ain’t for you. This is simply me saying its GOING to happen.

 

[ROBEEZYKILLA]

I don't get that correlation

Kings Disease is a reference to gout

Corona is a Spanish word for crown if you notice corona beers have little crowns on them

Durkio

"how that IE weather?"

 

[Roxx the King]

I've listen 6 times since midnight. Me and my shorty was beefing all night

Issa legit 4 mics, maybe even 4.5

I got a blunt of sour for this next listen...

Edit: I legit called out so I could smoke and play this all day lmao

 

[JustCKing]

I'm still replaying songs and there's several standouts so far:

Blue Benz

Car 85

27 Summers (reminds me of a harder version of "Testify" from Untitled how its like an interlude, but not an interlude)

10 Points

The Cure

 

[Esco]

@PhillyBirds215 get in here and listen to your favorite rapper's favorite rapper

 

[Jx2]

Too early for me to rank but this really good and the level I expected that Kanye collab to be on. On my first listen and I just let this one ride. 10 Points might be my current favorite

That beat flip on "The Cure"

10 points is vintage Esco

Spicy gonna be bumping from the whip all weekend, holy shi lol

this shyt is special. everything flows together. Hit Boy came through and complemented Nas perfectly.

When Nas is hungry which he seems he is on this like with Life Is Good too, he can't be touched. I hope this gets the praise it deserves

People have judged Nas too much on that Nasir album which was clearly rushed. I still think Kanye and Nas could have put out a classic though

Off topic but damn you guys got me wanting to watch The Wire again

We gotta make sure we streaming this album!! And if you havent bought, buy the album. Nas killed this.

fukk twitter @Tact


anyone else get The People vibes from the "Ultra Black" beat or is it just me?

both songs got similar type vibes, hard to explain

The track gave me 2005-2007 common BE era vibes. Agree 100

 

[Fctftl]

I like Spicy but glad its a bonus n not the final. The Cures a knockout, thats how you close a fukkin album.

Best album of 2020. Amazing 30 years in, his flow is top notch, the production sounds current/modern in the whip. Dope album. Salute this man. After work, will be my 3rd listen this time on quality headphones.

 

[Piff Perkins]

Imma accept my L. I said Nas doesn't sound good on trap drums. I said Nas shouldn't try to make modern anthems for the kids because it might sound like old man shyt. I was wrong.

He slayed every beat. Whether it was trap drums or hard snares, the flow never wavered from beginning to end. If you told me NAS would have a dope ass song with Fivio, Durk, and even Don Toliver I would have laughed in your face. But he did that shyt. The Don Toliver shyt might be the weakest track on the album and it's STILL a solid ass track.


this shyt is just smooth, man. wavy

KANYE should be ashamed man. There is actual songwriting and THOUGHT put into this. It's not some shyt thrown together in a couple days and then horribly mixed by coward ass Mike Dean. They cooked this shyt. You can tell Nas was re-doing verses, coming up with new ideas, bouncing things back and forth, etc.
