From what I understand he never claimed to be a huge factor in the streets, just did some dirt like most these rap nikkas who be fronting like they was kingpins. But I stay seeing mfs talk about how he watched the shyt that happened to people in his hood from a project window and wrote about it

It's cuz he's the GOAT...when you're one of the best rappers ever like he is, people are gonna say whatever they can to discredit you. Nothing wrong with observing other people in his hood and writing about them cuz that's what writers and artists do anyway. They absorb their environment and put it into their art. And Nas is a writer first and foremost.

And while Nas ain't some super thug, he's still a dude from one of the wildest hoods ever who can get busy if need be...proven by pullin a strap on DJ Envy and supposedly besting NORE when they scrapped

"It was just a real serious point in rap. It was crazy back then; everyone was lyrical, everyone would battle you, everyone had a crew. Crews back then wasn’t only popping bottles, they was popping pistols too. I hadn’t really been shot [like I say in the song] but everyone else around me had, so I was their voice." - Nas
Biggie was rapping whole first person stories about murdering bytches in drug deals gone wrong:mindblown:

it all started with pac
nas said he left the hospital the same night in the message and pyscho man tupac thought that meant he was trying to be like him:mjlol:


despite the fact that pac was re-making his songs, and pac wasn't even a gangsta in his own right, pac stans believed him.

Then mega made 200 rap songs rapping about how he sold more drugs den nas and caught more bodies den nas (which is true, but proves nothing. nas never said he was a bigger gangster den mega, nikka was arguing with himself)

jay-z used that tupac ammo in takeover years later and jay-z stans who are mad he got bodied, bring it up


nas was always the low key street poet that did his little dirt here and there, but was surrounded by killers.
