NAS PAYS HOMAGE TO RAKIM

fukk rakim











for not dropping a new album in over 10 years.......someone hook him up some new producer and lace him with some heat

Everything requires funding, for the most part. White people are wicked, speaking generally…it’s intrinsic imo…I say that to say if you look hard enough you’ll find skeletons in all these wealthy white folk closets. We don’t like to support each other for whatever reason so Nas made a wise decision partnering up with this multi-billionaire ass white man to help him out on something that’s going to help hip hop and the luminaries of it. Why is Nas the first to get this going? He’s not the richest, not the most popular, etc… Give bruh his flowers, no need to nitpick anything

Yeah, but props to Nas for giving out his leverage to give back in a massive way. Too many Hip Hop legends are broke and forgotten because of fast $$$ and moguls that pretend they never walked the earth.

Nas lapped that nikka and Rakim got butthurt, Nas one of the goats for real.

Tina Knowles was there.

As was Gayle King which I find hilarious considering Nas called her out on Kings Disease


From the pics released it looks like a lot of movers and shakers were in attendance

This ain't just about homage to Ra... it's bigger than that

The requirements for this award are that you have to be a legend who was integral to either the founding of or laying the groundwork for Hip Hop to become what it has but never got the proper financial credit for your contributions. Royal Flush is neither. This is something that would go to the likes Sugar Hill Gang or Grand Master Caz or Yo-Yo.


I’d bet anything next year one of the MC’s who receive this will be MC Shan.

I know what the requirements are.

I mean for the entire gala not sure but trust Ben Horowitz can put a fraction of his wealth in an investment and pay artists off the interest forever. It's not a lot of money for a guy like him. He is worth billions.

The girl that is apart of Nas team also mentioned that ifs not just about the 500k and the healthcare. The room that they were in will present them with opportunities that will well exceed million dollars. Which is a good point.
