Guys, I need help. I just heard this Nas song coming out of someone's car. I know it's him because he says "I'm back with Stoute" and he says "Talk to me" over and over, while this female is singing in the background. Also, it sounded like DMX or Ja Rule was on the track. Who can figure it out first? :feedme:

no introduction was fire but not enough replay value for me. I hated cherry wine. Not my cup of tea. Didn’t like bye baby. Flow seemed off to me. Wasn’t a fan of the black bond or roses. On this album, not a damn song I don’t rock with.
The flow was sloppy on "Bye Baby" to me too. And "No Introduction" was just cool to me, nothing crazy. Roses was okay. Cherry Wine was jammin tho, :mj:. And Black Bond is still my shyt.

Bye Baby sounds like the engineer inched his vocals in the wrong direction a little bit. It’s just a little “off” and I said that when the song dropped.

Nas has a weird way of recording his vocals 'cause he usually just reads off a paper and goes 'where ever his instincts take him'. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

It worked like a m***f***a on Nas Is Like.
I still don't know how he caught the beat on those opening bars.

More recently...

He messed up his verse towards the end of that video of him and Dre in the studio that was just released.



"No blemishes, relationships last 3 months and a half, first day I meet 'em I smash"

^^^^^^ That was all off beat

It shouldn't be the job of the engineer to get him to pay attention to the beat.

From the sound of things, Nas gon keep feeding y'all till y'all bloated. (With new materials)

And if Nas Keeps going, best believe Jay will keep going.

Dropping the mic is a distant thought for both right now

Wouldn't shock me at all if Jay drops before year end
Jay is definitely scheming. Nas took his whole lane effortlessly with this album. Bridging the gap with the youngins and making mainstream viable music that still is great and not compromised.

jay made a struggle collabo album that was forgotten in the same month...

Nah he sounds fine in that clip. Song ain’t even done. Bye Baby literally sounds like a engineer issue to me tho. And plenty nikkas read off somethin when they spittin in the booth. I’m not finna tell the GOAT how to GOAT bruh. Lol

Bye Baby worked for me:yeshrug:. Song is dope. Hopefully, we here that dre song too. He was ripping that joint.
Yea he was bodying that’s shyt. Most of the time when nikkas say Nas off beat it’s some bullshyt. But Bye Baby sounds sonically off to me. It don’t even sound like it’s an issue with him catching the beat. It sound like a vocal placement issue. Where it’s some milliseconds off or some shut.

It sounds like Nas wrote it as letter format in Bye Baby. Sounds on purpose to me. I could be wrong though.
