Nas - King’s Disease (Discussion Thread)

[SwizzLake]

oh you mean people who fukks with Nas who tired of hearing y'all muthafukkas bickering and nit picking everything he do.

Yeah that's me

Now get off my dikk

It's been like this since Sohh back in December 2001, what changed?

Keep in mind, Nas is the first rapper to drop a classic album in 4 different decades

1990s: Illmatic, It Was Written
2000's: Stillmatic
2010s: Life Is Good
2020s: King's Disease.

King Disease is getting mad love from the Hip Hop community

Just finished my 2nd listen. This is amazing. That beat on blue benz is something else. That track with Big Sean is the only song I aint feeling. The rest of this

For me, LIG just has some tracks I tend to skip over: Daughters, Worlds an Addiction, and Summer on Smash are skippable tracks for me.

The worst I can say about King's Disease is that the Paak song wasn't the classic I wanted it to be. Still a dope track though. Everything else on here is A1.

Daughters and World is an addiction is skips???

Like what I heard from this. Already have it several listens and it’s exactly what I want to hear from a rapper way late into their career. Big props to Hit-Boy for tailoring this to for Nas’ style. Much better than NASIR and some of the more recent tracks from Lost Tapes 2, the rapping included.

I just wouldn't call Life is Good a classic...

Life Is Good is in everyone's Top 4-5 Nas albums..
critically acclaimed by journalists and fans.

It's a Classic.

The cohesion from track to track is otherworldly


Feels like It Was Written where every song was sequenced PERFECTLY

 

[Waterproof]

Lately I've been playing a lot of Nas Escobar shyt from It Was Written, The Firm, and his track's from that era, and I have to admit I was one of those back packing nikkas and I slept on Nas Escobar, even though I brought all Nas albums I was hoping for Nasty Nas.

That being said when I was listening to King's Disease I said to myself this a Nas Escobar Album

Yea no way those are skips. Only songs I skip was Summer on smash and sometimes I skiped Reach out. Everything else is flames. And its 19 tracks on there. Its for sure a classic

 

[Da King]

Paak was better on that track than anything on his last 2 albums

 

[HNIC973]

I like this but dudes might need to revisit LIG>>this not on that level still very good in its own right. Seeing all this universal praise is dope to see

Life Is Good is in everyone's Top 4-5 Nas albums..

LIG is an easy 4.5/5
