The best version of Nas was when he was biting the goat.
How The Notorious B.I.G. influenced Nas' 'It Was Written' album

Yeah we know nikka.I had Nas number 3 after 2pac and Ice cube, but when you think about it, he's not really that versatile. He's about as versatile as waka flocka when it comes to making different kind of music.
People like Pac, Ice Cube, Jay and even Em and 50 cent can make hard ass club music,party music, then switch it up and make a deep song and all of them will be HITS.
Example:
Pac made Shed So Many Tears and Dear Mama which are both classics, but at the same time made I Get Around which is one of my favorite feel good party songs. Then he also turned around n made some hard ass shyt like Hit Em Up. And it doesnt stop there, he also made one of the GOAT love songs in I Rather Be Ya nikka, then a harder street love song in Bonnie n clyde.
I can go on for days.
Ice Cube: Make them hard ass CLASSICS like straight outta compton, to a goat story telling track in My Summer Vacation, then the goat laid back songs in You Know How We Do It and Today Was A Good Day.
Even we be clubbin wasnt that bad
Jay Z: Hard Knocc Life to Can I Live, to Big Pimpin
Nas- Just makes songs like One Love and Memory Lanes, although shootoutts is one of my favorite songs ever. IM also a complete gaslighting stupid ass nikka and am making shyt up just for clicks

and ?
why the fukk would he need a hit when he can still sell venues all other the world today. and rappers ain't supposed to make hits 30 years into their career, that's husling backwards. a lot of your "hit" guys faded away a long time ago and can't even fulfill club venues

That’s cool…but I look at rappers like baseball players…the GOATS should have all the tools…in that analogy Nas couldn’t hit for power…probably a higher batting avg than jay but jay hit way more home runs and is like a .290 hitter..Nas is incredible at what he does but he simply isn’t as versatile…jay can do what Nas does at a very high level if he wants…Nas could never make the hits jay did
Yeah.. Nas stans really regret Nas
not making Brush your shoulders off..or that corny ass Annie song... lol
Imagine in 2024 riding with your windows down playing H to the Izzo corny ass shyt

I get your point but that type of reasoning got its limits. rakim is a goat to me and he got 1 or 2 hits at best. at some point being able to do it all is a great point but that should not be the alpha & omega of all the things. if I'm really going to play your game I can say jay got zero point in storytelling and his best albums are not even top 10 hip hop albums of all time. nas & rakim literally changed how people rapped, jay never did that as a rapper. and I'll go further, everything jay did, biggie did it better. so each rapper have his strenght and weaknesses. If you got all categories except one or two outta ten, you can qualifies as a goat
