Nas - King's Disease II (Discussion Thread)

Freddie Gibbs and Hit Boy need to get together for a Joint project.

I think Freddie implied that's what he's been working on this past year.

Kings Disease 2 is sitting at 98 on metrtric


but you know pitchfork gonna shyt on it to just bring it down

Everyone keep saying this so I guess I'll enlighten. I think that 98 is just a misprint for now because the average of the 4 scores should be around 90. The scores are 100, 100, 91, and 70 so far. So unless they're doing some new age math or some future algorithms, it should be 90. This shyt don't matter anyway but I guess the grammys and all that other bullshyt factor in these scores when debating.

Yeah AOTY has it at 90 right now. Thing is they might have some scores they haven't posted yet.

Yeah, but with that 70 it would be mathematically impossible for it to be a '98' unless they're holding back like 30 '100' scores so it's just a misprint

I think what people to fail to realize is that the Eminem verse is technically proficient but it's on the opposite end of the spectrum of the vibe and tone of the song and that's pretty much been the collective compliant about Eminem for the last decade. Yes, he still "has it" but he doesn't know how to ride the pocket. It's not 1998 or even 2003.

99-01 Eminem was a perfect emcee and it's so annoying to see him become this weird ass robot that can't read the room. Dude only knows how to do cartoon voices and dad jokes now.

finally finished the first listen...it's so muthafukking soulful man

the ending stretch Hit-Boy really connecting Nas' past work and helping him update shyt's beautiful

Nas is Like...Nas is Good

Some sites have more weight than others in the calculation of the score.
It happens all the time the Metascore is never the exact average of all the ratings.

Always found Nas to be a bit pretentious to a degree but I gotta give credit where it's due.

 

[TheDarceKnight]

Hit Boy can do the commercial releases but I'd like Nas to do side projects or EP's with other producers especially ones he hasn't worked with yet like Madlib or Daringer.

Yeah I agree. Although I kind of think he’s too big an artist to do anything but “big event albums”

 

[Canada Goose]

I

you ain’t fw the Charlie Wilson joint? I fw it, my personal favorite

On a second spin, I like it! Nice, smooth track. Sometimes it takes a few spins for me to feel a song.


Still prefer Car 85 though.
