Nas wrote Men in Black and Miami?

[Reggie]

Which proves to me that its easier to write a hit song than it is to actually make one. People have always asked why cant Nas make the commercial or club tracks but its just not in his nature to make this type of music. I knew he wrote Miami but just found out he wrote MIB too. Which shows me that he can create a commercial song, he just cant perform it. And nothing is wrong with that, its just not his lane.

Is Big Willie Style considered a lyrical masterpiece?

Wrote this too

Why is his name not mentioned in the credits then like with the others. I know he also wrote Chasing Forever and Yes Yes Ya'll. But why would they give him credit for some but not others?

Classic case of dumbing down for an audience to double his dollars.

That's how u do it. Lend your pen to someone else.

Dont dumb down your own music.

Supposedly he ghostwrote I Need a Girl Pt. 1 or Pt. 2....at least someone here claimed.

 

[Sugar]

He wrote a lot of the album actually

I remember having the booklet of the CD and reading the credits and shyt. You can even listen to some songs and tell Nas wrote them just by the flow.

 

[Canada Goose]

I hope the reference tracks leak someday

With out knowing Nas ghostwrote for a Will, I always thought some of the cadences in Getting Jiggy Wit It sounded exactly like him.

Imagine if Nas was in the video, dancing with aliens like Will.

all Commercial and Club music.

So you aren't aware of Nas dumbing down his own music? Nas fanboys continue to put him on a pedestal

He never dumbed down his music in a widespread way. He may have made the occasional commercial track, but all of his albums are lyrically focused. You're just making sht up.
