Nas vs Jay-Z Verzuz

[Cladyclad]

Basically.

If you ask dudes on here, they're going to say Nas, lol. But we all know, offline, there is no way that Nas could beat Hov in a Verzuz battle. They're both greats and in my Top 10, but Nas doesn't have the records to go up against Jay. He's just not that type of artist. That's not what he does.

Oh nas does it.
Dude got records with
Beiber
Jhene
Mary J
Miguel
Nas X
Amy Winehouse
Aaliyah
Alicia
Kelis
Future
Etc…

Not one hit in that bunch

Jay would win just off 2006 and beyond.

Youngins bumping Holy Grail thinking that's some GOAT shyt

 

[Ellen Degeneres]

Kingdom Come - wack
American Gangster - great album, but I wouldn't use any of them joints for Verzuz
Blueprint III - this was Jay-Z's "futuristic" album in 2009 has to be one of the worst albums of the past 2 decades looking back
MCHG - didn't listen after the singles sorry
4:44 - tried harder, but still vibes

Jay has had ZERO anthems since the Black Album and even then 50 was way bigger. Blueprint 2 was wack too. What does that tell you? To say he has been hot after 2006 is insanity to me. Yeah everyone always wanted him for a feature, but I would argue this has really been off the strength of his older work. His albums of the past 15 years and especially the singles were I know if you were on here when them shyts dropped you feel the same.

Personal preference.

I can see that playing out except for Where I'm From over Made You Look

 

[Bolzmark]

Lol @ who would win. Whomever you prefer. These are two icons. If it’s in NYC the hardcore fans in the building are gonna lose their fukkin minds when that Illmatic sh!t comes on. But Jay is the King of stadium status songs. So when that P.S.A or U Don’t Know drops the building might explode.

Hip Hop would be the only winner here. Too bad this sh!t is never gonna happen

 

[BmoreGorilla]

I’m a much bigger Nas fan but no way he beats Jay in a Versuz. Jay got songs that my mama even knows. Only Nas song she might know is If I Ruled the World
