"Rewind or Undying Love"

[Ziggiy]

Why are you guys continually feeding this troll? Did we NOT learn to correct the mistakes of Sohh's past and ignore this dude?

Super Stan!

 

[mr. smoke weed]

it goes
slick rick
nasty nas
then ghostface
as far as storytellin, nobody else is close

 

[JayBaldacci]

I just don't see how smoking a blunt with a youngster on a bench makes for a GREAT story.



I know Nas tells stories.

overall message of the verse. again, judge every emcee the way you judge nas.

Rewind is more creative as far as concept...but Undying Love is cinematic brehs. I prefer Undying Love. I can close my eyes and 'watch' it so to speak.

Pacino life, G a roll, casino dice
at the Mirage, Vegas strip, neon lights
Gamblers, puffin cigars, couples and stars

He pulls me in from the get go. Who can paint a better picture of Vegas?

 

[Big Mel]

Prodigy has told stories as good as Nas. Maybe better.


Actually, yes, much better.

I judge every MC on the music. Nas is a great writer. Not particularly great at stories.

a lot of people try to put prodigy up with nas in general when it's not that close when you compare them at their best. p just had a dope voice. prodigy's only kicked like a few stories brah. i guess prodigy thinking he might get set up and running from a tinted car is great story telling but nas schooling a young youth too the streets is "dull".

 

[Big Mel]

Drink Away The Pain is what I was thinking of. Great story.



I can't think of one Nas story that would be considered a classic to the layman rap listener.


Maybe to us elite fans (aside from myself) but not a casual everyday cat.

 

[Trajan]

LOL at going pages over this sh*t. Do you ppl enjoy arguing for no reason?

This nikka Big Mel said Nas isn't a great storyteller because he isn't ''funny'' . It should've been a wrap for his opinion after that. You're actually entertaining this shyt?

 

[JayBaldacci]

drink away the pain was a dope CONCEPT and a classic song, but the story telling was ok at best. great because of his delivery and havocs instrumental.

i think q-tip did that joint anyway

 

[Big Mel]

Whatever you need say to qualify it. It's a great story and more of a classic than any Nas story.

 

[spliz]

My nikka Big Mel is in the words of the infamous Double K from Beat Street..."So full of shyt that it
Ain't even funny.."..lol...

Why don't we all just ignore him? I mean seriously it makes 0 sense debating with someone like that

we don't believe you need more people. lol

you think a layman rap listener would list drink away the pain as a classic story? LOL
