Nas - King’s Disease (Discussion Thread)

[Ziggiy]

@Life is Good said it earlier and I’ll reiterate that although Nas doesn’t do this for awards and accolades, he definitely deserves it. This album is Grammy material and I think Nas has a shot at one this time.

nikka I said it!


This shyt WILL win a Grammy next year GUARANTEED

Blue Benz and 27 Summers

And y'all gotta stop this Jayz shyt... That shyt is really looking crazy on here.. I'm pretty sure Nas himself would look at y'all like clown nikkas.. It makes y'all look like y'all fear the man and in a way makes Nas look like an underdog when he's not.. Bro is legendary

And the wild shyt

Was just last year

Stop this dumb shyt man.. They both Kings of our culture

Celebrate this album fukk all that dumb shyt.. Nas showing hip hop doesn't have to only be a young man's game

We don't deserve those Charlie Wilson vocals

AZ may take that track, his flow was too smooth. AZ just makes more sense when Nas is involved in 2020. I love his work, but he's been wayward for about 15 years. Not like he has no good tracks, just feels a bit out of it.

Mega was choppy, and to me, has three classics or close to it, but he did well to me. He sounds a bit rough, when not in his street knowledge pocket.

Hit-Boy is a legend for this shyt man. The boy laced Son with ill instrumentation

You hit the nail on the head. Hit-Boy is about to become the go-to-guy on a lot of future projects from other artists.

Just the first few bars in on Blue Benz and I had to hit the face and run it back MEAN

Dope album. Got everything a grown ass man would need in 2020.

Only track I don’t like is Spicy. Sounds like Nas attempt at a radio/currently relevant track that just comes off as forced or out of place. Especially to be the last track on the album it sounds out of place.

 

[EA]

Yo WTF?! I was optimistic then slightly pessimistic when the Durk and Fivio features were revealed but this album is fukking fire

Hitboy is the MVP of this album because he provided production that allowed Nas to be Nas and still sound accessible to people that aren’t die hard Nas fans like us.

Nas is sharp as hell on this whole album. 27 Summers and Full Circle had me doing the Spice Adams reaction whilst I was doing my cardio.

 

[phrank kastle]

I’m trying my best to refrain from impulse reactions like saying it’s an instant classic, best album since, etc.
But, on my 4th listen, i do feel it’s his most cohesive since the Stillmatic, Lost Tapes, Gods Son Era.
I love Untitled & LIG. But, there are skips on those & drag a little for me. I’m really not hearing anything on here that I’ll be skipping.

 

[NYK Loyalist]

I still need to give it a few more spins before I can call it but this definitely has some gems. Car 85 is beautiful music

 

[BK The Great]

I need a new Anderson Paak album, he should be the go to guy for hooks like that. Blue Benz is also crazy.

 

[Slim Charles]

I hope the universal praise this is getting gives Nas that hunger to produce another 3 or 4 albums. We know there’s definitely another in the works but the way he’s spittin there’s no reason for this man to stop

ALBUM IS FLAMESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS



the damn intro

I pay attention to all of Nas' intros because he always kills the intro.
