Nas - King's Disease II (Discussion Thread)

[Stick Up Kid]

My biggest problem with Hitboy on these Nas albums is his beats are too busy for Nas sometimes.

Nas is at his best on a looped beat where he can just go in for a couple verses (2nd Childhood, No Ideas Original, Take It In Blood, Purple, etc.

There's a couple tracks like that on here: Nobody, Store Run, Composure. But I wish there wasn't so much extra shyt going on. Just let the man rap

EPMD 2 needed Redman and not Eminem. Also Redman's affiliation with EPMD would have made it make sense

Never even though of that

Store Run

Damn hearing Eminem come right after Nas was dope

Know matter what you say, he still's a legend (Nas respects Em enough to have him on his album). Hearing them both on one song is stuff you wish for with legends.

I didn't hate Em's verse, it picked up as it went on, but he's gotta do better than "I got more shells like Taco Bell"...its like come on, you're on a song with Nas and EPMD

Yeah it's disappointing that he went with theatrics instead of bars, especially since he's a hip hop head that you would think would have appreciated the moment and tried to drop a more traditional verse that fit the tone of what Nas and EPMD were doing.

Nas is Good just

He did the same on that Griselda song at the end.... Loved the song until he came on and babbled about nothing.

But that song is Conways most streamed song…so it served it’s purpose.

its crazy to not have put out any real music in so long and still be in such good form. sounded like 96 lauryn

That shyt hit me forreal because I avoided any news about this release even this thread, I thought she was doing background vocals and then I heard the first 3 words of her verse
