Nas - King’s Disease (Discussion Thread)

[kes929]

A moment of appreciation

"Took risks, this ain't what you want, there's rules to this
Don't get it misconstrued, my suit gamе was crisp
Silk, linen, chiffon, Dior to Diadora
But I rock custom more, the hustler aura
Tap in, razor cutter, nineties/eighties lover, raised in gutters, raised above it
That made it up out the hood subject? I made you love it
[beat switch ]

Crazy, I knew this chick, she had a blue Benz
A Jersey penthouse, she used to pimp girls that would turn rich men out
Her coke habits was so savage
She hear voices and see ghosts on the average
Of her stepdad, he raised her from a carriage
She was twelve when he passed, she's been in hell since that
Her grandma raised her, I met her in Kingston, Jamaica
Where veteran kingpins bought acres
Rest in peace Louie Rankin, original Don Dada"

Has it registered to everyone that nas first album dropped in 1994 with illmatic and in 2020 has dropped the best album again. Do we understand this man's longevity??? This has never been done before.

I agree. I've been saying that from the beginning. I've seen every single demographic enjoying this album. Kids, women, old heads, younger cats. Nas and hit boy really crafted an album that sonically sound amazing. I think this will be one of the most important albums in his discography. This introduced nas to a several new audiences too. This is a great blueprint for him moving forward too.

I was hooping with some youngins (18-21) this week and they was jamming music on the speaker. I heard Spicy come on mid game and I was like

Does anyone else instinctively bob their head when the opening bars to "Blue Benz" come on? That shyt is just at its finest.

Also, when Nas says "Place my teacup on the saucer," he sounds so damn proud of himself.

Brehs really need to chill with the super stan shyt. Joe didn’t do or say anything wrong, there is no beef.And Nas already said he has love for Doja Cat which invalidates a lot of the wild shyt people were saying on this forum about the line.
