Nas doesn’t really do “Deluxe” type stuff. Only time he did that was with Life Is Good.


I’m guessing we’ll see whatever was left over in the next 3-4 years on a theoretical Lost Tapes 3

Those deluxe songs on life is good were godly too Haha. Those deluxe songs are pretty much the full album for me anyways.

Hasn’t left my rotation since it dropped. This album, Jay Electronica, and Childish Gambino are my most played albums of the year according to Apple Music.


I’d put it ahead of all the nominees


1). King’s Disease
2). A Written Testimony
3). Alfredo
4). The Allegory
5). D Smoke

Alfredo is better than AWT.

 

[Ziggiy]

Alfredo is better than AWT.

Nah

 

[spliz]

Nah

Yup.

 

[Ziggiy]

Yup.

Alfredo subject matter too limited for me.


Jay Electronica is a better rapper than Gibbs

Jay-Z is CERTAINLY a better rapper than Gibbs


A Written Testimony was food for the soul. I’ll be revisiting that album for years to come. I’ll forget about Alfredo by next year. Pinata and DEFINITELY Bandana are better albums

Being left on read is really agonizing.


Especially a specimen you gave your heart and soul to.


How could somebody just throw it all away.



Don't even have the capacity to listen to All Bad because it's too real.



Fukk.

A Written Testimony wasn’t great to me. And it ain’t about it being Lo Fi. Or nothing. It just wasn’t very well thought out.

That’s that Jay E album right ?

He's more of a placeholder for dope production for me. His content is 90% the same tough guy super thug shyt with the same flow. He has skills without question, just think he's a bit overrated on here

Yea for some reason that Alfredo album doesn't make me want to go back. I think it's due to the pace of that particular album. I love alchemist but really not a full album full of alchemist.

 

[Ukbrotha]

I thought Alfredo was dope but to be honest it was the production that kept me going back. I definitely preferred AWT to it. That's also one of my most played albums.

 

[Formerly known as...]

Alfredo is better than AWT.

Hugely. AWT was decent to me off first few spins but when I listen now it doesn't hit the same.

 

[Piff Perkins]

I need to revisit AWT but as of right now I'd agree Alfredo is better. I've listened to Alfredo way more though so it could just be that. I def agree that AWT has more lyrical variety, which is normally something that leads me to pick one album over another. But in this case...Alfredo was just so dope from the beats to the features and rapping that it's definitely in my top 5 of 2020 rap albums without me even thinking twice. Whereas I gotta think about where I'd put AWT.
