I think it's legit. Maybe the order could change or maybe the name of one or two songs, like what happened with TLT2.

I consider Nas to be more than just an MC. He is more than a street poet too. I see him more like an artist. That's why he, more than any other MC, goes against the grain with songs like Jareau of Rap, Bridging the Gap or Who Killed it. He is creating art. Artists take risks. Lupe is like that too. If there is a Nas song that doesn't hit me right away or doesn't fit in the mold that we want my hip hop to fit, I still understand that Nas is creative and I can appreciate that. Remember that his creativity and the risks he takes also give up One Mic, Rewind, Blaze a 50, etc.

Nas is my 2nd favorite emcee of all time, but thay single is mid and Nasir and Lost Tapes 2 were both mid. I'm not expecting much from this.

Isn’t sounding like (old) Kanye a...good thing? Someone said earlier it sounds like Late Registration Ye and that’s so true. In fact when I first heard it I immediately was like hold on they need to add some strings here, maybe a fade out with guitar notes there, more reverb here, etc lol. It had me in Kanye mode like it was 2004.

I’m not mad at the few people who dislike it but it’s a dope single brehs.

I never liked Kanye. His rap style always grated on my ears. I know that's not a widely held opinion though
