And he went ahead to fukk that opportunity up!

He bit off more than he can chew with everything and thought he could bang out a classic in 3 days and away. He been gassed too much

You Can’t Kill Me is one of only two songs I don’t like on Hip Hop Is Dead.


Especially now that I know Vernon Family was recorded during the HHID sessions. That song should have 100% replaced You Can’t Kill Me.

I used to think You Can't Kill Me was meh but this live performance made me like it more.

Yeah, I don't know why but the subject matter hits harder in the live version.

How? Lyrically it's Nas. Production is good. It's cohesive.

It's just something I won't be listening to regularly like other Nas albums.

You listen to every good album regularly?

It’s so interesting to watch the cycle of Nas’s catalogue...The hate he gets after he drops a polarizing project some don’t like then the lovefest after he follows it up with a critically acclaimed project. He proves himself all over again even though he’s already cemented in Hip-Hop history.

“Falls off” with The Firm...resurges with I Am
“Falls off” with Nastradamus...resurges with Stillmatic
“Falls off” with Untitled...resurges with Life Is Good
“Falls off” with Nasir...resurges King’s Disease

I never heard of him falling off with Untitled, if anything he "fell off" with cacs for putting out a pro black album like that. Then he followed that up with Distant Relatives.

Why isn't Spicy a hit?
I know my guy is getting long in the tooth
by Hip-Hop standards but what more does he
have to do? This is a certified banger.
