Those bars ain't that hard my nikkas. Jay came a lot harder on d'evils, I know it's hard for y'all nikkas 2 admit it. I like nas more than jay and I'm a PAC Stan but I admit I've never heard anybody rap as good as jay did on reasonable doubt, he was in a zone lyrically on that shyt


dude just painted a perfect poetic picture of himself being a gun bucking, fur coat wearing, silent gangsta riding around in a lexus with tv sets wearing a diamond cross and a bullet proof vest

all while making it rhyme and flow

i don't think you could pull that off

im all about techs, good jooks, and sex, israelite books, with holding government names from Ness'


the range of thoughts he expounds upon in a single bar is mind boggling

those who arent apt to keep up can be easily confused, but this is a rhyming technique described by Rakim as taking the listener on a journey through one's thoughts, and the speed which one can travel can be too overwhelming for the average fan, but not for the listeners ..(huge difference)

thoughts are messy and uncontrolled..which is why we deem it messy writing..which is why we keep reiterating the point that as when one continues to work on their craft they leave behind this nonsensical style of writing...greats like lupe, kdot, drake, and even present day nas no longer write like this...its the style of an amatuer but you accept it as advanced because like i said..u desperately try and connect these obscure references and metaphors to reality and to each other when not properly laid out by the composition itself

Case and point..D'evils is excellent writing..Take it in the blood is not..only smartdumb mufckaz consider this sht to be well written...it isnt at all :camby:
