Why was 2pac praised, but Nas criticized for using this exact same beat?

[Illeye buckmatic]

I don't know, but it's amazing how great both of those songs came out to be. Two classics.

Nas sang the hook.
It was a Eurythmics hook.
Pink ass suit.

So?

I never really fukked with either of these songs. And I love IWW but this song was instant skip status.

Pacs version is better no doubt, but both songs are just lukewarm to me.

Idk exactly which song was released first but I imagine it was Pac's and so there's your answer. Pac's album came out earlier in 1996.

And Pac's song was better.

NAS is my favorite rapper...

But honestly PAC had the better song

I think Stretch produced a track on IWW right?

So?

Nas' singing on the chorus

 

[smokeurobinson]

it would be interesting to hear how both nas and pac got a hold of this beat

I always thought Nas jacked it as a way of saying "fukk u" to Pac.


Nas had enough time to switch up the beat but chose not to and i concluded he specifically took the beat from the song with the album title to let Pac know "yeah i jacked yo shyt" like Tim Dog did with that NWA beat.
