Official Nas Thread

[Ziggiy]

Listening to NASIR. Yo, Nasir is tight AF. People just wanted some Nasty Nas on some old QB shyt and it's not that. NASIR is on par with all his other work. There was no fall off.

I’ll say it until the day I die. Nasir is a solid 4 Mic album. It got hated on because Kanye was in the midst of losing his goddamn mind and the Kelis accusations had blogs gossiping.

I 100 percent agree it tainted people's ears. If a song like everything was released without Kanye being Kanye that song would be Grammy worthy with a powerful visual behind it

My God, I would still get her pregnant

You put Untitled on the same level as Illmatic and It Was Written

 

[UpAndComing]

You put Untitled on the same level as Illmatic and It Was Written

Yeah I'll edit it for 4.5

But that Untitled album was a near classic and probably one of the most important albums of the last 10-15 years

Literally gave birth to the "woke" era we see today

You're right about LIG, forgot about that Swizz song.

God's Son is tho, Nas even saves a wack ass Eminem beat on some superhero shyt.
