Nas - King’s Disease (Discussion Thread)

[T.he I.nformant]

Ultra Black is legitimately my favorite Nas single since Cherry Wine. fukking love this song and its sequencing within the album is PERFECT.

So you just going to skip over Jarreau of Rap?

lames still tryna make false narratives of that kelis drama

I really hate these muthafukkas who arent of the culture. You can tell he aint in it. I would not critique a country album because I dont get that shyt in any way. But this fukker is in a major mag writing about a legend like Nas. This shyt gets me hot. Who they fukk are they to have an opinion on our shyt.

This is who wrote that article. Could care less what he think of Nas or any black shyt.

"Nas is a misogynist"

*thinks Eminem's lines about sluts and killing his wife are hilarious*

Exactly. If it wasnt 2020 I wouldnt even care about this shyt. But I see connections between shyt like this and George Floyd like things everywhere now. Who the fukk is he to even have an opinion and RS validates that shyt. He probably saw 10 points on the tracklisting and thought it was about video games or some shyt.

As much as cacs are leaving Hollywood rolls to give way to black actors, these cacs need to fukk off reviewing Nas, they do not show any respect to the culture, it’s history and Nas or his character. I respect all people, but the constant social justice warrior shyt is too much, we need people who care about the culture, and it’s history reviewing shyt. This guy is a cuck

We all need to spam his twitter and tell him he’s not welcome in hip hop.

Had look at his profile pic. To paraphrase Nas talking about Flex. Just look at his face man

Dude play his game, the cacs want to give people of colour opportunities and not appropriate, ask him to step down to someone who may resonate with Nas’ experiences. We have to play the games they want us to play Cos we can win here. He can’t say shyt he’s got ‘privledge’ as he would say...

Nas' 'King's Disease' Gets Derailed by Petty Misogyny

But Rolling Stone stars, I get two and a half out of
Five, and I laugh out loud
'Cause that's what they gave "BAD" back in the day
Which actually made me not feel as bad now 'cause
If it happened to James.......

Why do people hate Nas having fun on albums so much..
Is it not a good thing to be a well rounded individual

Anytime he goes a lil light, problems!

Who killed it
I can
Hey Nas
Reach out

You damn purists or traditionalists or whatever you call yourselves are a damn headache. The album ain't just for you only.

Just like I understood what biggie was doing with playa hater. It didn't take away from the album for me.

Nas is treated like a sacred cow. So many damn boundaries placed on him. Good thing he just does him.

Imagine if Nas pulled a dmx n placed a "how's goin down" type record in the middle of "Hardcore" Illmatic. Some of you did take away a mic n a half n he will never hear the end of it

FINALLY Someone else sees it repped

I read the review. He didn’t identify a single line on the abum that was misogynistic noR explain how the Doja Cat or Gayle King lines were misogynistic.

Also, he’s White, so he’s out of line for even speaking on the situation with Doja Cat. It’s up to the black community to asses Doja Cat’s blackness. As a white person he should just shut the fukk up about the whole situation.

also, he looks like he’s 12. What are his qualifications to even be given a platform to review a hip hop album in the first place?

this shyt has to stop.

Till the War is Won but Nas hates womenCacs

 

[MikeStamina]

Its a problem when they are terrible songs like the bolded above

You're making my point...
Lady friends that listen to Nas love that cut.
So there's that
