Hit-Boy with the obvious darts at Kanye :mjlol::wow:

Im listening to what hes saying and I feel it .. heavy

Theres a producer called Budgie from the UK ... hes known for putting tapes together of Gospel music and sometimes making nice beats out of it. Him and Alc made two great tapes let not get it twitsted ... But I saw him on IG bigging up the fact that he had credits on Kanye latest shyt... All he did was grab a 45 that he had on the floor, Kanye made people perform it live, like only Kayne could . I think this is what Hitboy referring to.

Even when you listen to that "good book" vol.1 and 2 .. you can tell its ALC that put that shyt together.

In these studio sessions .. there's maaad people coming together with ideas that get credits for major grammys or whatever, just because they supplied the vinyl for the sample.. I hear what Hitboy is saying

He deserves his Flowers.

Overall a great album. I enjoyed it more on first couple of listens than I did KD1.

Highlights:
*THE pressure- was great, very introspective track to kick it off, love the beat
*DR east- love him telling the story of that infamous night and once again showing love to another guy on that Mt. Rushmore(PAC)
*40 side- love the beat and how he switched his flow
*Rare- probably my favorite on the album right now, love the beat switch
*Nobody- I was expecting Lauryn to sing or something, but she came out spiting like I never heard her rhyme before, she got it off her chest!!!!
* Composure- Hitboy came correct with the flow, beat is dope

LOWS:
*EPMD- Didn't like anything about the track, once again I think eminem was doing too much on this track, less is more
* Store Run- LOVED that track until the last 30 secs, I'm sorry I cringe with any BLACK person says "stop asian hate", and then correlated that with Tyga's mom. That track became a turnoff
*YKTV- guess that is supposed to be like spicy, its not a bad track, just average


Overall I give this album 4 1/2 stars, if someone says its a "classic" i wont argue, Nas will be 48 next month, still going strong and still CLEARLY better than everyone out. He's running victory laps on the guys from his era (raekwon, jay z, scarface, cube) and I don't see newer artists like Kendrick, Cole putting out this high level of creativity and song writing skills. Its clear to see NAS is the GOAT, hard to dispute that when you see a guy with 14+ albums, at this advanced age and still has EVERY RAPPER dead or alive in his rearview...

Gave it a spin in the gym just now.

I really fux with it. :obama:

Ms. Hill coming back to bless us on some 'Rap Sade' shyt. :wow:
Loving the vibe to the beats. They swing through modern sounds, but the laid back jazzy bop that they weaved through the project it had me :banderas:

Store Run, Moments, Composure, My Bible, Nobody and Nas Is Good jumped out on my first listen.
