People rarely mention how smooth and effortless Nas's flow was on Ether, specifically for me the 2nd verse. That was actually the first thing that made the track stand out to me the first time I heard it. It's like he was teaching and showing nikkas "THIS is how you rhyme and murder a track". Its like the actual disses were secondary to Nas's pen game.
The other thing that stood out to me was just how condescending he was on the whole track, like, why am I even wasting my time replying to you, you will NEVER be on my level. On some, "KRS already made an album called Blueprint (d*ck)"
Happy Ether Day brehs!
