My bad if already posted, I never seen it, but Nas recently explained why ya man was rubbing his head and face like that on stage, 😁😭






Him and Big was forming a rap crew? 🤯


The Commission meets Goodfellas would have broken Flex's sound FX button. Big would have robbed the world of Either and Stillmatic freestyle.

I wonder if Big could have kept Fox and Kim from beefing?

A project minded individual, criminal tactics
Us black kids born with birth defects, we hyperactive
Mentally sex-crazed, dysfunctional, they describe us
They liars, at the end of the day, we're fukkin' survivors
I remember watchin' Scarface the first time
Look at that big house, that Porsche paid for by crime
How could I sell this poison to my peoples, in my mind?
They dumb and destroy themselves is how I rationalize:wow:(who the fukk sets off a verse like this)?

In the b*stardized nation, Magnum .45 carryin'
Where I'm from ain't far from Washington Heights to cop Aryan
A rookie boy, the cookie didn't make no profit
A stranger to the block, I damn near had to make them cop it
It only took a fiend to taste it once to say it's garbage
I brought it back to papi, ain't tryna take no losses
He focuses on my emotionless young dealer face, then pauses
He gives me powder, he has faith in Nas' ambitions to distribute coke
Had addictions to gold chains, Mercedes Benz hopes, but I'm again broke
This shyt ain't cut for me, other dealers, they up their orders
Barely at 62s, they already up to quarters
They out there every day, some true hustlers for you
I'm at it half way, none of my customers are loyal
Picturin' pipin' out the seats of a Pathfinder
Powerful pursuit for p*ssy, cash, to flash diamonds
My junior high school class, wish I stayed there
Illegal entrepreneur, I got my grades there
Blamin' society, mad, it wasn't made fair
I would be Ivy League if America played fair:wow:

Poor excuse, and so I was
Throwin' rocks at the pen, just for the love
Before the evil, the secret life of G's
You seein' me blurry, triple beam dreams

I remember hearing this shyt with the :damn: :dead: nikkaz really think there's better MC's than this dude? :mjlol:


Still don't know what Ross said after that. Even if I make an attempt to listen to the end, his verse doesn't stick. It's the same with Rae and Ghost

Purgatory
Went back and listened to early Nas (93-96/97). Underrate isn’t the word I want to use but it’s wild that we may have taken for granted just how great this nikka was and what he was rapping and how he was spitting is insane to think back that someone who was that young was saying shyt as ill as he was

Yea. Drop a classic with Premo, maybe one more and close the chapter.

Nah if he can maintain relevency even just for his core audience, rap until your 80s

Hes been the golden child from the get go, might as well be the one to take to old age as well.

Think LL is the oldest to put out a strong project in recent time but would love to hear some wisdom from Ra for example from 18 to 58 and up

Preem you ready ?

Wow, no space between the albums, huh? I guess just let them fly and give fans the whole summer to enjoy it all. Means we’re probably getting Nas and Primo even sooner than expected 🧐

Its not confirmed yet... page is more on the fans side of things, not impossible but if they would release them almost weekly that would be a CRAZY run
