Nas and 9th paving the way for hip hop's future in academics.
Jigga what? Jigga who? 


Amazing. One of my favorite most slept on Nas verses.Put that shyt right up there with Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, Langston Hughes.
Now once again this is you, entertainin your desires
bytches money and guns, aimin and you fire
Everyday is grief, if it ain't beef, it's feedin your seed
Tryin to eat? You form material needs
The weed make your brain sizzle, a pistol make it cool off
By stickin up nikkas, make them take they jewels off
His reputation is, bigger than his whole life span
He never planned to fail, he just failed to plan
What does it take to realize, Satan's alive, he whispers
And any chance he get, he can take nikkas
He comes in all shapes and sizes, his best disguise is
When he stand beside us, but God is inside us, within me
You are your worst enemy - my mom's words echo in my head
And if I let go I'm dead
He stepped at my door, the takes motivate my spirit
And now the body experience, so now I feel it
Lookin at my blessings, the bullets - that missed me coulda hit me
Them court cases coulda put me in the penitentiary
I never hate, that's just wasted energy
The past is gone, the present's a gift, so what's the mystery?
The future - and time only reveals, what fear is
False expectations, appearin' real
We only human, love thy neighbor, so I was told
And I will til permanently, my eyes are closed
lossir stans are so insecure, just proves how bad lossir lost in life generally
most of his coli stans = white euros![]()
lol, it only makes sense. Nas wrote DeJa Vu for fukks sake. It's nasty on paper![]()
for the gawd Nasir. Him and Tupac were truly some of the greatest poets of the modern era. Their works will be studied 100 years from now no doubt. I'm just glad I was alive while these legends were spitting.
So in the last year Nas has:
#1 one album on the billboard
Nominated for 3 Grammy Awards
Named associate publisher of Mass Appeal Magazine after venturing into the Magazine business
Launching his own sneaker store in Las Vegas
Started his own clothing line
Harvard named a fellowship in his name
I keep hearing that Nas is losing. If that's losing in life sign me up.

Don't forget he was named "Greatest Lyricist of All Time" by CNN.
