I see a few Coli posters shytting on Danny Schwartz on Twitter
Somebody should tag Big Business. I forget what his twitter handle is. He could make this go viral and I’ll bet Rolling Stone retracts the review if it does.

Yep play this guy at his own game... say he cannot fully grasp the concepts Nas is talking about - ultra blackness, complexity of misogyny / black relationships, mixed identity and the the differing reactions from the black community (if he is referring to doja cat) and he should step down as the right thing to do until a person who understands black culture can examine Nas' album from the correct lense ... play these social justice liberals at their own game until it bites them in the face

This is dope!

Let it go breh


Rolling Stone is the SAME publication that gave Stillmatic 2 1/2 Stars and shyt on One Mic


The only good reviews they’ve ever given Nas are for Illmatic/Untitled/Life Is Good/ and Lost Tapes 2.


That review for King’s Disease will be forgotten about by next week.



If we want to help/support Nas lets buy some more merch from his store and keep streaming so he can hit number 1 tomorrow

You play a hater at their own game by ignoring them. He wants attention. He responded to the only tweet that suited his narrative in the comments. He barely got likes for this wack ass article. The dude is a loop mentally just look at him.

Let's not use Jay bro. It makes it seem like Nas fans are simply stanning or not being rational.
But trust n believe at the opportuned time, they'll sell jay down a river too

you're right, the same could be said for dozens of white artists they stan. crystal castles for one

Y’all doing too. much. Why would you even want to make this go viral? No one is even interested in this article. It barely got likes but y’all stressing over it. Y’all talking about more than twitter on here.

You're right bro... just these culture vultures do need a taste sometimes, they are wrongly in positions that do shape the narrative of Nas' album to the mainstream... but you're right, let him flop

You know what? I'm going to say it. I'm tired of Illmatic.

Between that awful Rolling Stone review and these internet fanboys thinking that Illmatic was an accident that Nas wasn't skilled enough to replicate, I'm tired of hearing about it. Literally every single album Nas puts out these days gets compared to it. And because they're not Illmatic, they get trashed or paid lip service.

This has nothing to do with the album itself. We all know Illmatic is fantastic. But I hate the cult-like atmosphere surrounding it. I'm tired of hearing about it and I wasn't even alive when it came out. Imagine all the years Nas has had to hear about it. It took a quarter century to hear him over Pete Rock beats because of these idiots. And no one cared.

Me and @S.W.A.G. playing it cool on the outside but inside

Listening to Royalty again and the beat sounds similar to Car #85, but the chords on the latter really elevate it into something special.

I’d wager its 100% a Davido song as Nas seems to be really working King’s Disease right now and he JUST dropped a video for Ultra Black yesterday and from all accounts a video for Spicy is coming soon.


If Nas REALLY intends to drop another album it would probably be in winter. Before Untitled started his run of summer albums, the previous five Nas albums had been released in winter months (Stillmatic-Hip Hop Is Dead) that would give King’s Disease enough to time to be worked properly and then he could start promo for the new album that could carry his momentum well into 2021 (Allah willing by that time PERHAPS he could start touring again)

Also if that Davido track (which I think was HitBoy) pops, and then the Benny Butcher track comes out on his shyt.. Nas might be setting himself up nicely for that "secret" project... momentum continues

then you have AZ Doe or Die 2, which he could potentially be on


even if he doesn't drop another album this year or anytime soon, I'm looking forward to his future features


also I prefer Nas winter albums, but that's me

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

Its always these types...always smh
