Look at my response above and you'll see my point. My friend is a writer and he's chilling here visiting for the week and I had him read that article too. He said it was fairly well written, but your Daughters vs. those other songs should have been more qualified. To quote him, "That's a bit much. In Paris is one of those In Da Club type records. He should've said something like (not verbatim):
"And with a generation that has grown up on Hip Hop Nas' ballad will undoubtedly prove to be more relatable as that generation grows into manhood. It may very well mean more in the future, to most of its listeners, than it does now. It's legacy, is still untold. Unlike, nikkas in Paris, which has plateaued, every year Nas' song will mean more to a growing number of listeners--sitting in the stands, harassing at home, sitting uneasily in the ER and gazing into the classroom. In Paris' impact however, will be relegated to the club, and the arena (which this guy Ziggly pointed out fairly well), and in that regard it will fail to match Daughters in its personal ubiquity. That way he's making his case without somehow pretending In Paris is some sort of Florida track that no one will play next year."
I think he's right, and that was my only point. You did good work. I still don't see the image.
I want you to know that I really appreciate your constructive criticism, even though we might not see eye to eye it's still good to be able to have a good discussion and get a feel for our different perspectives view my work. Thanks.
This is the image I tried to use. Don't know why it's not showing
