Coli Nas Stans - Are You Ready to Admit You Overrated the Hitboy Albums ?

[semicko82]

The Cure is the only song worth listening to twice.

Nastradamus is better than the entire Hitboy era put together.

Only Magic 2 was underwhelming

Everything else was pretty good

 

[Redwing80]

Magic 1 was the only project I throughly enjoyed

 

[NotAHotep]

I enjoyed them all, but I often go back to Magic and Kings Disease 2 & 3.

The issue with those albums, wasn't Nas.

Which is why people like to shy away from speaking on the production, and they focus on how much they love Nas, lol. The run gets a lot of criticism because Hit-Boy ain't dope enough to have that many damn albums with Nas. Nas admittedly likes to experiment, but had he done that many projects with a dope or legendary producer, we'd be looking at all classic albums.

Away from Magic, which Hit-Boy had a lot of help on, whether people know it or not, the rest of that run was wild forgettable when it comes to the beats. Whenever the Primo project drops, we'll see Nas back in the company of a producer who's actually worthy of the studio time with him.

Agree with everything except the Primo part. Primo fell off in the early 00s although the single they put out earlier this year was dope.

It was nice to see Nas get the fire relit in him to make music but the albums in general are missing that special touch that made even his uneven work from the past still have something that made you come back to them years later.

There’s not that “rebel to America” element in Nas’s music, or Nas himself, like that really anymore. He’s a business man now, and he’s eating, lol…and, hes 50-something! That kinda angry, kinda conspiratorial, kinda hood reverend Nas energy ain’t in the offing and hasn’t been there for 90% of this Hitboy era.

I’m cool with it personally, Nas fed us good off that…I like that he’s more interested in just making jammin ass music with some jammin beats and shhit now , I’m old. Where are the new/current generation Nas’s at to feed their generation that good food now and carry on tradition?

Stop lying to yourself

I'm not lying about shyt I know dope music when I hear it. Nobody on here gonna sit here tell me shyt like Speechless,The Truth, Thun, Nobody, Store Run, Ugly, Nas Is Good aren't dope Nas records. Who gives a fukk if it isn't Nas is like or NYSOM shouldn't diminish how dope the music actually is

This is the problem with this post: "had he done that many projects with a dope or legendary producer, we'd be looking at all classic albums". There is literally nothing from 2020-2023 to support a claim like this. Nobody has heard one note of the "many projects with a dope ir legendary producer" to even say they would be "classic".

fukk outta here all them shyts was fire

KD2, KD3, Magic 1 & 3 are at least 4.5/5s. Show me another nikka dropping shyt on the levels of any of them shyts at 50 back to back to back to back…. None of Nas peers dropped anything as hard as Thun in the last decade

 

[Stuckinthe90s]

Damn indeed.

Damn fukking right.

 

[Wepa Man]

Nas and Preemo album got me nervous

There are good records on each album

Buy y’all rated each release a classic, and I’m sorry it’s not true

 

[deeznutz]

KD 1 - 3/5
KD 2 - 4/5
Magic - 5/5
KD 3 - 5/5
Magic 2 - 2.5/5
Magic 3 - 4/5

Hitboy production just ain’t it for me. I knew I would never fw it when I felt like he ruined Benny’s album last time I gave his beats a shot with an open mind.

find a post of mine where I said every one of them is classic . I said the closest 2 would be Magic & KD3 those seem like general consensus best. KD2 is a dope album so is M3 imo, KD1 has some dope shyt on there has some mid 3.5 to a low 4. M2 is average
