Deflection.

Stop the pass giving.

You nikkaz give passes, stop it.

Now it is time to keep it real.

We see who is real and who is a complicit deflection artist.

You nikkaz really thought.

Oh this day never gonna be a reality.

Yet it is.

Now deal with it.


The nikka you stan is complicit. Now deal with it.

nikka do u KNOW how many rap nikkas used to no show back then? Rakim consistently did that shyt. nikka was a young nikka in the hood with barely means to travel. Wack album budget. Album was in the hood for damn near a year by the time it officially dropped. People overseas even had it. Thats how Rae and Ghost heard it. So it WASNT just some local bootleg. People had that shyt. nikkas was finding garages full of bootlegs. He DID get snubbed by the Source in favor of Puffs machine. The DJ's and producers DID fukk him over. Marley Marl was supposed to be protecting him and he just took advantage of him instead. These are FACTS.

You mean nikkaz who never spit no real rhymes nowhere. Label plants who got on from being sheltered bot really cyphering. The written rhyme guys. Who try to act like they wrote better than the guy who made a draw for them in primetime and radio.

Yeah. Aight.

Bootlegging was known then.
All for one was known for possibly selling more records than their receipts. Yet and still. No passes.

nikka trying to give a pass for no showing.

Stop.

nikka no. I'm speaking on legendary rappers and PIONEERS of this shyt u so called love nikka. Nas got fukked over by PUFF'S machine by the same magazine that gave him his 5 mics. Bottom line is all these goofy nikkas had a price and try to act holier than thou when the nikka Nas figured out how to move beyond it and still be successful. Only nikkas mad at that is nikkas that never was and don't know how to be successful.

Nas felt a certain way about not going platinum.

So it's true that if Illmatic sold more, he would've be less aggressive in his attempt to go plat and took a different (better) approach for his next album.

Maybe we would've a better Illmatic with songs like this:

it was actually a blessing in disguise. Had Illmatic went platinum, Nas stays doing that type of music and fizzles out. The fact that it didn't sell a lot forced him to go the route of singing on the hooks with a more mainstream approach and that's why he's still relevant 30 years later. Sometimes failure if the best thing to happen even if your album is great.
No.

Take Over brought him back.

Nas took a corny way with Stoute.

IWW was better than Stillmatic. What are u talking about? When Takeover came out Nas just came off dropping 2 platinum albums in one year. What did it bring him back from?
Stillmatic is better than Nastradamus and IAM.

The quality was going down, Stillmatic brought him back.

I Am original would've been what Lost Tapes was. Which is better than Stillmatic. And I think Stillmatic is classic. Nastradamus wasn't even supposed to exist. Also I Am was Nas' highest selling album and got 4.5 mics in the Source.
