Nas - Life Is Like A Dice Game (feat. Cordae & Freddie Gibbs)

[Dylmatic]

So much like Deja Vu, this was an early It Was Written cut that was mistaken for an Illmatic demo. Easy Mo Bee did the original beat.

Maybe Deja Vu is next...but then again, two of those verses on Deja are ones we've heard before

If this track was originally planned for IWW then maybe the remix has something to do with the 25th anniversary re-issue.

 

[AMcV'88]

nah, you can keep that.

I don't want to hear after school special raps and undercover cop bars on what should be a Nas classic.

 

[mson]

I like it.

 

[Izanami]

My GOAT been active for 3 straight years….we are not worthy

 

[Easy-E]

Nasty Nas really diggin in the crates?!

 

[Easy-E]

He finally finished it 28 years later he finished it

If we can get a remaster of Deja Vu



C'mon Nas!

 

[ISO]

Good idea by Nas that’s dope

Should be a bonus on King’s Disease

 

[waynep]

The verse he added was crazy

The old track is way better, the pocket on the beat got more swing, it don't got the voice in the beat, it just sound sterile, no soul

I'ma be honest, people have forgot how to make hip hop

I was thinking the same exact shyt as soon as the beat dropped. The muddiness and grit of the original is partially what made it so dope.

I'm speaking strictly on the production aspect of the track though.

 

[jensyao]

is this for lost tapes 3?

Nas can have a duets album simply by remaking old incomplete songs reciting old verses featuring new artists

The muddy sound does add to the dopeness, but that's not why I don't like, the beat itself its just too stiff, that that beat slapped on the original, head nodding shyt, the new beat is stiff, and it don't have voice in the background which was the dopest part of the damn beat

WHY DID HE HAVE TO PUT GIBBS AND CORDAE ON IT

 

[Metal Face]

this beat is weaker than original what the fukk
