If you think about it a bit, why is Nastradamas considered a "wack album"?

the album is pretty solid if you think about it, the joint with mobb deep, project windows, you OWE ME wasn't as BAD as yall make it out to be, that was a killer timbo beat, God Love us, life we chose, Shoot em up was something creative with that christmas carol flow, plus havoc's beat was hot! so i mean, i don't get it, this album wasn't horrible by any means necessary! :yeshrug:

agreed 100% ... i preferred nastradamus to Jay Z Vol 2... lol

No way is NAstradamus wack. Never understood the hate on this. Now like a previous poster said if Nastradamus and You Owe Me weren't the two singles released i think we would have a different view on this album. Minus those two tracks u have an very good album from Nas. It's way too many great tracks on here and not enough bad tracks to say this was a bad LP. Maybe not up to Nas previous standards but better than most nikkas best. I suggest people to listen to this album again with an open mind and try to say its wack juice. Minus those two songs and the skits this is a solid 4mic album.

Nastradamus was Nas at 6/10 and was still better than 75% of the game them and 90% now.

:duck:

Nastradamus was one of the worst major label albums released in '99.

The album was wack. No need to revise history.

The master- Rakim
World party- Goodie Mobb
Amplified- Q-tip

all came out in November 99 like Nastradamus. I'd take Nastradamus over any of them.

Outside of those disappointing albums you cherry picked, '99 was a decent year.

Nas groupies might be the most insane fans, next to boy band fans.

I got them third behind Jay, and G-unit stans

Neither fan base is even close. Nas stans are the next level roaches who are supposed to survive nuclear fallout.

Maybe Wu stans come as close in term of loyalty, but not in terms of insanity and historical revision. Pac stans are right with Nas stans in terms of passion and delusion, but not in numbers. Canibus stans used to rival Nas stans, but they've pretty much disappeared.

Come on Gif, Nas groupies are on a different level. Who are all these Jay and G-Unit stands you speak of?

All stans are groupies breh, and the G-unit stans, I remember it being some irish guy always acting like he knows 50 and Jay stans, you remember Doeboy? :russ: and there was another one who posts on here named Harry B, Nas stans are annoying because they go overboard with his music and act like everything he does is gold, Jay stans do the same thing, but then act like he is cutting them a check, always bragging about his money, business deals and beyonce

my bad for the double post, I'm honestly too young to remember Wu stans and Canibus stans, but I explained on my last post on Nas and Jay stans, you had a poster named Doeboy who had threaten people over Jay:huhldup:
