My review



"And here is where Nas and DJ Premier’s genius lays within the context of the album. They didn’t set out to “save” hip-hop. They didn’t set out to outdo their previous works. They didn’t even set out to make a classic. The mission of the album was to uplift that which needed upliftment, celebrate that which needed celebration, and shine a light on that which needed illumination: the living, beating heart of hip-hop itself."

Dope!

He’s not talking about only Nas/Illmatic is good or worthy of acknowledgement. He’s just making a distinction between Nas and whoever the hell else Nasir is that they were referring to.

He even said “Gods Son” Nasir
Cam Newton is talking about Gillie the Kid. They've been beefing for a while. Gillie the Kid real first name is "Nasir"

I don’t like that they used AI for this.
And notice how they keep doing this specifically with rap. The way they're playing around with rap history, erasing facts, etc is very dangerous.

Couple weeks ago I stumbled across a Miles Davis youtube page that's full of obviously fake AI pictures of him, with videos telling half assed biographical information on him. Some things are true, some things are false...and it's all mixed together with fabricated pictures. I hope brehs wake up to this shyt.

I remember a while back Juvenile made a video for 400⁰ on the anniversary of his album. This is ai but I was thinking the other day some rappers should revist some of their classic songs and make videos for them. Maybe for like a 10 year anniversary of an album.
