Throwback: Criminally under-rated, unknown (to many) Nas freestyle going at Hov!

[Charlie]

my fav nas freestyle. Jesus Clue had the game on lock

 

[powerpainpleasure]

God's Son is a real snoB in this bizness and believed (and still does) that only 2 rap men living 2day had any right going at him - Em and Jay. Saying that he wasn't about no rap beef but knew Jay would come at him (no homo) eventually. If u a nas nikka then u heard this when it dropPed and knew it was a warning to brooklyn one to go easy. Hands down it was the greatest battle in hip hoP history but nikkas purleeeeeeeeeeeeease move the fK on coz some u b getting all Larry Holmes with your thread subject matter!!!!!! lol

 

[Francis White]

My god Nas was on fire on this freestyle, he spit pure venom, he was on fire on this track.

 

[DStyles]

Are you serious?

Look up the original definition of a 'freestyle'

A freestyle being off the dome only is some bullshyt that started in the last ten years

Tell that to the Nas stans that take shots at the GOAT Drizzy for spitting freestyles off his blackberry

 

[Threnody]

You obviously don't know ya hip hop history..it was started by freestyle fellowship like 20 something years ago and to this day it still hold true..

Gtfoh

Listen to some dj red alert freestyle sessions from the late 80s and educate yourself kid

[The Jewnited States]

remember when dj clue had all these dope exclusives and was running shyt?

i used to think dj clue's yelling was bad.....then came dj drama years later

 

[Bugsmoran]

Nas is top 3 dead or alive

 

[Rapmastermind]

You can't B.I., see I'm eternal, not luck
You get shot-up, boxed-up next for the grave
Your flow is one dimensional, your level is 2nd grade
You're on top -- WHAT?
Copy and fukk, I said it first, you repeated
Your false crown covered in dirt - defeated
Y'all nikkas all hail, the King is dead
He running like a bytch with his tail between his legs
'Stillmatic', still eye 4 an eye, wanna be God
You're just the next rapper to die, fukking with Nas
Explain[/I]

I had this, in College. It also had the track "Thugs Die" on it. This was most definitely going at Jay. That line, "You can't B.I." was evoking Big's Legacy. People have to remember, they had a subliminal battle for years before it finally popped off. From the Bleek Track to both "Come and Get Me" tracks. But this was hard, I remember the quality being so bad cause it was clue tape but it was grimey. Love this. Classic, you brought me back to my youth with this.

you've got to be trolling right now

 

[labelplant]

I feel like he took subs to big too. "just the next rapper to die..fukkin with nas"

 

[Mr. Pink]

I had this, in College. It also had the track "Thugs Die" on it.

It's been years since I heard that.

Now he's under the ground, may he rest in peace
Cause he was married to a ho and I was married to the streets

[The_Third_Man]

this's very known freestyle. I thought everybody already heard it. Still classic shyt.

This is my you can't kill me nyggas
I'm already dead, BRING IT!

That's not a real freestyle..that's a written rap..I've heard nas actually try to come off the head with a freestyle..he can't..

say what?
