Been listening to some old school Nas lately. :wow:

Which track is better?



or this




That story telling :ohlawd:



Carolyn, from Maryland, she Lady Heroin
She elegant -- her apparel in the M-Class caravan

Ki's of dope, lovin cats to ski in her throat
She fukk killers in her condo, her Benz and her boat
Her iced throat, ass is curvy, 40 years old
She passin for 30, Gucci framed glasses from Purvy's
Madison Ave., shoppin when she not, coppin bricks of that shyt
She hoppin on dikks, ridin Pony's who trick
At my man's wake, she said the eulogy
After that I usually, bumped into her shoppin for jewerly

Her bodyguard screwin me, I gave her my math
Ain't nothin new to me, blowin backs out, six-pack Stout's
Wide fat mouth, the evil look, with a bow-leg

Yo nikkas said, "Shorty's a pro, she blow heads
She push the fo' red, she know Feds, Feds know her"
A code red, maybe she's out to slay me, this bytch is crazy
She blew the celly up, meet me at the telly to fukk
She knew about, cats from way back, we smoke the haystack
She never cough once, blunts was her hobby
She said I knew her man probably, no doubt, 9-6 he tried to rob me
I jetted though, sometimes you never know
He snorted all her work, now she need me, to do her dirty work


:ooh:

Shootouts is such an intricate song. Especially the second verse. "Frank returned with Pierre, a gun slinger who nikkas ain't seen in a year"

Small World

One of the best beats Nas ever rapped over. I like his delivery over that track too, esp. the third verse when the beat transcends.
