Moments.

The thing about Nas is he never fell off. Even his weaker albums like Nastradamus and Nasir are good albums.

He's basically your favorite rapper's favorite rapper.

Still though Jay-Z is the GOAT. Jay might not be a better artist than Nas but Jay's success totally eclipses Nas'. Jay is hip hop's first billionaire. He beat Dre and Diddy even to that.

Wtf u even care about this for? For one. It’s not like Nas ain’t one of the richest rappers in the game. Number 2. His money has nothing to do with his musical status. I would respected more if u said Jay was the better artist.

[Deuterion]

OMG nobody is fukking amazing damn near sounds like 9th Wonder or one of those Little Brother producers were on the beat….damn this shyt is hard.

 

[Fortunate Lee]

You gon respect Death Row East sooner or later

my breh ate that beat

 

[RAW_SPK]

YKTV is like a better version of Spicy to me. Still a skip.

album skates from store run onto the end. fukkin with the energy on this more than KD1

 

[Deadman187]

Album starts off a little shaky (I wasnt fukking with EPMD or YKTV, and the beat on Death Row East is weak)

But from "Store Run" onwards

Hit Boy really came correct

I can't skip a single song....I fast forward through Em's verse but that's it

I bought the CD off his website. Even tho it doesn't ship til January does it still count towards his 1st week sales?

I’m in for Death Row East. Seen people saying they ain’t fukking with the beat. Sounds good to me, it’s a perfect beat for a song of reflection imo. Kind of takes you away.

Now, if only Pac could do a song in 2021 about this nite too.

We the smartest not the loudest is a sideways diss to me. And the line about Jungle hollering at Pac is another little sprinkle of Nas trying to flex imo. Not sure how I feel about the song as a whole, one part of me likes it the other thinks Nas should shut his mouth about Pac when he ain’t here to say what happened in that park.

So Nas should just let EVERYBODY ELSE talk about the shyt but him? The one who was the subject of the beef?


The Outlawz talk about this shyt in every interview one of them does. Snoop been telling 678977 versions of the same story for going on twenty years. Nas can speak on whatever the hell HE was directly involved in
