EDIT i forgot I Can,and The World is Yours


Some songs i picked not because i necessarily like, but because they're either recent, or move the crowd more.


I'd give it to Kendrick

DAMN is Kendrick's most successful album. I didn't even include that, Black Panther Album, Black Hippy songs/Remixes (Illuminate), or New Freezer, and goosebumps.


Here's a random battle i'd like to see: Ma$e (or DMX) vs Rick Ross (10 songs each)

 

[Cadillac]

edit: wrong thread

 

[Cladyclad]

1. NY State 1
2. Thief Theme
3. Ether
4. If I ruled
5. Got Ya Self
6. One Mic
7. Made U look
8. You Owe me
9. Hate me now
10. I can
11. Nas is like
12. Oochie (best and hook and Horse verse only)

After these idk what to play to a mixed crowd of hardcore and casual listeners. I guess guest spots can help

 

[HNIC973]

don't disrespect the GOAT with this shyt

 

[904]

Even with that list Nas wins lol..

Cross generational matchups aren't fair..

 

[Ironman]

A Nas fan ain't make that list

 

[DraymondT]

1 track off Illmatic and it was the one with a feature

Oochie Wally

This is worse than the Jay VS Drake thread that left off D'Evils, Regrets, PSA, Heart of the City, Imaginary Player etc.

Any Nas list not having every track off Illmatic except Genesis and maaaaaaaybe OT4YM (and still prolly not/ is straight up dogshyt and worthless. WOW they don't even got Take It In Blood off IWW. Who the fukk made this

 

[JustCKing]

Oochie Wally is a damn good song and so is You Owe Me, I don’t know why these songs get hate when 20 years on they’ll still do well in the club today, I don’t care if the Peter Rosenbergs of this world don’t like it, both are bangers especially Oochie Wally!

They get hate because there's a sector of Nas fans who dislike anything he makes that is remotely commercial or doesn't sound like '90's NY Hip Hop.

Na nikka them shyts was Wack. The only dope shyt about Oochie Wally was the chorus and the video.

That you owe me was gaaaaaabaaageee

they get hate because they simply aren't that good compared to Nas's best material
If Nas made more radio shyt with dope beats like "Hot Boyz" that fit him people would fukk with his commercial shyt more

You must be slow

Hot Boyz beat is trash compared to Oochie Wally, that is an iconic beat.

The beat is incredible also, play it today it still sounds fresh, I think the problem is the lack of female interaction these hipster nerds have, go to the club surrounded by girls and see the reaction Oochie Wally gets, it’s a song for the ladies not weirdos, and it’s a great song at that.
