1). Documents
2). Love Me Anymore
3). Chandeliers
4). The Omerta

Nas absolutely COOKED Documents, I think that entire song is a banger. One of my most played songs of the year.

Love Me Anymore I place 2nd because the song sampled isn’t one of my favorites (yes I know the its a classic but its never done anything for me) so the fact that the producer made me like it gives it extra points for me plus Nas was a lyrical mission to let all the Lakey The Kid’s of the world know just how much he LOATHES them and their hanger-on mind-state. Nas ain’t spit with that much disgust in his voice since Still Dreamin’.


I don’t know why people don’t like the beat switch on Chandeliers but i’ve fukked with it ever since it leaked before the album dropped. Nas spitting his braggadocios shyt letting us all know he pioneered the era of legacy MC’s being relevant, winning awards, and being at the forefront of the conversation regarding the genre’s creative resurgence is all very much his to claim.



The Omerta verse is dope but the wind kind of got knocked out of its sails a bit when the original verse leaked and was confirmed to be real lol. Both verses are dope but hearing Nas just effortlessly wash those who’ve been talking shyt on his name (whether it be Noble or Jim Jones or just any and anyone for whom the shoe fits) beats anything.


I’m REALLY looking forward to hearing what he’s got for the new Mobb Deep album, i’d love it if he was on multiple songs on that particular album. Hearing Nas over some Havoc production paying tribute to Prodigy has me hyped.
And Nas showed versatility in all of these verses. Nas can go any route on a verse.

How y’all ranking Nas’s features this year?

I got…

Omertà (Rae) either verse is fire
Documents (Slick Rick)
Chandeliers (Clipse) although I don’t think they should’ve put him on a different beat
Love Me Anymore (Ghost)

I feel like I’m forgetting something :lupe:
I thought the joint he did with them Indians on Mass Appeal was his best showing. I haven't gone back to any of these tracks except for that one - actually Omerta too.

Both Havoc and Alchemist have confirmed that the Mobb Deep album is finished. I’m expecting Mobb Deep up next for sometime this month. Then De La Soul in October, Big L in November and then Nas & Premier close the year out

I wonder whether Premier going on a European tour with Alchemist from mid November until mid December means Nas will drop on or before Nov 7th (the last Friday before Preme goes on tour.)
