"D'Evils" is one of the illest songs hip hop has ever produced in my opinion. Jigga and Premier at their peaks, and the sampling on the hook was so ill.

thats no explanation though. Point blank the line doesnt make sense. This is why I dont really fukk with naS. His entire catalog is filled with shyt like that. shyt like "If I Ruled the World" makes sense... not lyrically masterful like "D'Evils" but it makes sense.

My bad, I edited my post and included the explanation. It clears up the metaphor. Nas was more talking about what inspired that line in the link I posted. And come on, the line actually makes sense when you think about it.
Besides, you're a Lupe fan, you should be used to these kind of metaphors...
Devils is the better song tbh, its not even the production but just the way the raw n grim filled lyrics compliment those piano keys, it brings everything full circle, Nas lost this round tbh
D'evils is probably Camels bestsong tho so its not really saying much comparing it to a mid tier Nas track. Its also funny how camels music was more fleshed out and mature is his early 30s than the shyt he is making now in his late 50s

Take It In Blood, but D'evils is one of Jigga's best tracks and Premo's better beats, it's pretty close
Prolly D'evils

Its not THAT impressing to me, but its still better than anything in the other track... which is the point. The Jay shyt is just so far ahead of muthafukkaz lyrically that I find the comparison insulting. The way Jay built the shyt and executed the whole track is on some masterful shyt.Prolly D'evils

i love that line. now this higher learning got the remy in methe execution of the "Down for whatever, aint nothin nice" line >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the entire naS track
but Nas has some disgusting lines in take it in blood no way can one line in devils be better than the entire song.
I really like the devils beat better, but they both kill it pretty evenly in the lyrics department.
