Top 10 Nas' worst tracks

[intilectual recipricol]

One Love and NY State of Mind are better than I Gave You Power. It Ain't Hard to Tell>If I Ruled the World.

Illmatic is a platinum selling album with over 1.5 million copies sold, plenty of people got it. Nas almost won lyricist of the year in '95 based on Illmatic.

Nah, you skim through music and dont listen to it... terrible verses and terrible "music"

"islands packed with black rats and loose cracks"
you nikkaz are impressed too easily, but like ol buddy said, naS stans arent smart enough to know simple words like 'scroll'

Thats not what the songs says tho, Nas haters pull shyt out they ass
"In the PJ's,my blend tape plays, bullets are stray
Young bytches is grazed, each block is like a maze
Full of black rats, plus the island is packed
From all the stories I hear when my people come back
Im living where the nights is jet black
The fiend fight to get crack..."

Pretty straight forward, In Nas' project he listens to his blend tape (mixtape) while all sorts of crazy shyt happens outside, young girls get hit with stray bullets, Queensbridge is full of black rats (savages, criminals, etc.). The island (Rikers Island, prison facility in NY) is packed from what he hears from his returning friends. Nas lives where the nights are jet black (grimy) and fiends fight each other for crack.
I don't get what's so hard about these lyrics or how their "terrible".

nothin is hard about it at all, its just garbage. The fact that nothing is hard about it at all tells you its not lyrically impressive. You just lower your standard for the chump. Youre actin like what you posted is better than my summary... complete garbo. Unlike the poetry contained in IWW...

"my style switch like a fakket"

you nikkaz are too easily impressed with that trash.

 

[Yayo Toure]

the track where he switches up his voice and talks about who killed hip hop...

I get the concept, understand it but it just sounds cheesy.

 

[Yayo Toure]

most of Nas wack tracks are because he experiments.
Sometimes he fukks around and makes a Rewind or a Book of Rhymes

other times he'll make a "Who Killed it" or UBR.

either way I like the fact that he experiments and tries new shyt, unlike Jay who plays it safe and makes bullshyt albums like that Holy Grail shyt. I had a lil road trip and was listening to it...I pretty much played the same 5 songs for 2 hours, everything else was trash. I'm now using the album as a coaster for my red stripe.

 

[Sugar]

Y'all my nikkas made the list

There's nas songs worse than that, comeon breh

As soon as I seen Yall My nikkas on the list I straight...

I vehemently disagree with that one

 

[patscorpio]

[Danie84]

1.Braveheart Party
2.Nastradamus
3.Black Girl Lost 2.
4. The Monica/Jermaine Dupri r&b song
5. All the Kelis collabos except for Popular Thug
6. Flyest Angels
7.General
8.Summer On Smash

I don't know what the GAWD was thinking with those joints

 

[IronFist]

always hated Big Girl from Nastradamus

 

[OG Talk]

Summer On Smash

Nas is way too talented to be making pandering songs about nothing just to fit into a certain club or radio lane..

 

[NvrCMyNut]

im gonna get hate for this because the song is about his mom but i think Dance is one of his worst..

i think the hook is cringe worthy, the beat is corny, and his dad Olu Dara playing the Cornet at the end sounds like a 8 year old Stevie Wonder learning how to play the Harmonica

Reminds me of one of the most blatant bites of all time

Big Girl has got to be his worst I can't get past the first 10 secs of that track. That sh!t is cringe worthy.

 

[HNIC973]

I've never heard this entire song.

 

[L68]

UBR dosent belong in this thread

 

[I.AM.PIFF]

I can see why some ppl hate on Zone Out but Nas killed his verse, plus I always like the Jungle line.
