Nas - King's Disease II (Discussion Thread)

[Mastamimd]

Sounded like Future

Nah it's Travis

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

I would agree with this but if you consider Nas your peoples, you should never try to shyt on him in public

I have no problem with Pete Rock opinion but they way he said it, it just comes off salty that he hasn't produced a Nas album.

He didnt say shyt negative about Nas

Just about the production

He wrong to even put shyt out there on social media like he hating
But i don't see how people can be mad at the actual opinion tho

Hell i dont make beats nor rap and i still have my own opinions about what beats corny or fire
So an actual beat maker definitely will have opinions

 

[Mastamimd]

That's actually a really good tier list. It'd be very similar if not identical to mine.

You admitted to being a Jay guy, I respect that you can come in a Nas thread and be cordial

 

[FunkDoc1112]

Here's how I go with it:

Illmatic - 5 Mics
It Was Written - 4.5 Mics
I Am - 3.5 Mics
Nastradamus - 2.5 Mics
Stillmatic - 4 Mics
Lost Tapes - 5 Mics
God's Son - 4 Mics
Street's Disciple - 3 Mics
HHID - 3 Mics
Untitled - 3.75 Mics
Life Is Good - 4.5 Mics
Nasir - 2.5 Mics
Lost Tapes 2 - 3 Mics
King's Disease - 4 Mics
King's Disease 2 - 4.5 Mics

Now dudes mad at Pete Rock for giving his opinion too


Dudes will be in threads all day giving they opinions on shyt they never done

But be mad at anyone that gives an opinion they dont like

That wasn't an opinion. That was hate and jealousy.

 

[Al Simmons]

Ain't no pity party for yourself
You gotta get up, rise for your wealth
Can't spend all that time in your feelings
Tryna sympathize with yourself (For real, for real)
Don't nobody owe you, ain't nobody holding you back (Woo)
You stuck in illusions, attached to something that ain’t even that

I don’t see how cats is saying they don’t like 40 side. It’s like they not listening and fukk it, the beat ride ​

 

[Big Dick]

Damn mine would be:

Illmatic - 5 Mics
It Was Written - 5 Mics
I Am - 4 mics
Nastradamus - 3 mics
Stillmatic - 4 Mics
Lost Tapes - 5 Mics
God's Son - 4.5 mics
Street's Disciple - 3.5 Mics(war is so piff)
HHID - 3 mics
Untitled - 4 mics
Life Is Good - 5 mics
Nasir - 3 mics
Lost Tapes 2 - 4 mics
King's Disease - 4 Mics
King's Disease 2 - too soon to tell but leaning towards 5 mics honestly

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

That wasn't an opinion. That was hate and jealousy.

It's his opinion

Also hate by putting it out on social media like that

Now if Hitboy said some slick shyt about him that i dont know about then it aint hate at all

 

[John Mexico]

This is pretty spot on

I'll easily throw LT2 into 3 tier, and put The Firm on the fence of 2 and 3 but its damn accurate

 

[T.H.E. Goat]

I like that We Major reference on Moments that was pretty dope

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

Damn mine would be:

Illmatic - 5 Mics
It Was Written - 5 Mics
I Am - 4 mics
Nastradamus - 3 mics
Stillmatic - 4 Mics
Lost Tapes - 5 Mics
God's Son - 4.5 mics
Street's Disciple - 3.5 Mics(war is so piff)
HHID - 3 mics
Untitled - 4 mics
Life Is Good - 5 mics
Nasir - 3 mics
Lost Tapes 2 - 4 mics
King's Disease - 4 Mics
King's Disease 2 - too soon to tell but leaning towards 5 mics honestly

I almost agree with this
But
Nastradamus - 4 mics
Untitled 4.5
Nasir 4
KD 3 (CAUSE OF PRODUCTION)

 

[Mastamimd]

Pete Rock is an illmatician, or someone that follows that thought process if you're still stuck in that archaic narrative you're an illmatic fan, not a Nas fan. And that's ok.

I don’t see how cats is saying they don’t like 40 side. It’s like they not listening and fukk it, the beat ride ​

Nas rhyming over Future adlibs is hard to me lol. Not quite as epic as Cant Me Nothing w/ Jeezy, but shyt hard.

40 Side
Store Run
Moments
Nobody
Composure

My top 5 right now...shyt will be different in like 2 days, but for now

 

[Piff Perkins]

It would Nas’s biggest mistake in my opinion and i think he knows that

You 100% right and we know what the reaction would be immediately, 20 minutes after the album drops: "it's not as good as Illmatic. Sounds dated. Trying to recreate the past." It's impossible to satisfy these people when they're waiting to tell you that you failed. Nas could literally drop something better than Illmatic lyrically and beat wise, with the same producers...and there would be hate. Because the album would be competing with a period of time. 93/94, golden era, when all these 40-50yo dudes were still young and enjoying life with fewer responsibilities...you can't compete against the past.

Pete is still dope and yes I would like to see another collab...but I don't need an album of Illmatic producers. Give me a couple Premo beats and Pete...maybe Large Pro. And then the rest of the placements go to Hit Boy, Just Blaze, whoever.
