he basically said he's working on tryna get inspiration, which tells me there wont be no music coming anytime soon.. when an artist loses "inspiration" its hard to come out of that :mjcry:


These old nikkas don't care anymore bro.


And it's actually quite disheartening, but shyt, how much inspiration can you gather when you've doing this shyt for 25 years?

I've been telling people for years about the NaS and Biggie studio story as I heard it years ago. Plus there's photo evidence of them in the studio. LOL @ NaS getting blazed and realizing that's exactly when Biggie's at his writing best. Big was ready to the lay the track down, NaS has a different written process. I think if they had another day or two it would of gotten done. Sad "Gimmie the Loot" Remix didn't happen as it's a storytelling song and fits NaS perfectly. I'm unsure what happen to the beat. There were rumors it was a Premo beat and he ended up using it for the "Machine Gun Funk" remix. Biggie's lyrics ended up being used years later on "No Way Out" as he spit the same lyrics, I guess he ended up never using the verse. But it was on the "Young G's" track. Good interview, NaS is a Living Legend in Hip Hop and has so many amazing stories. Biggie and NaS did perform together so they do acutally have 1 song together even though both verses ended up on LP's of theirs:

Khaled has a good thing with this situation he has with Apple.
enjoyed the interviews and mixes he did for Nas and French.

interesting thing he said when Khaled asked about new music, he basically said he's working on tryna get inspiration, which tells me there wont be no music coming anytime soon.. when an artist loses "inspiration" its hard to come out of that

he's still trying to think of a gimmick for this go around. :sas2:

man, when Nas and Jay are done, I dont know who I'll check for again in rap...

even though at this point i'd be fine if neither of them put another album out but it is weird when you don't get something new from your Jays, Nas etc every 2 years when you are used to it.

always felt like an event when they dropped an album.

That Future cosign is genuine :jbhmm:

it is and they share a manager.
