Nas - King's Disease II (Discussion Thread)

[T.H.E.GOD]

Cherry Wine is but this is a close second

Undying love is.

 

[CobaltBlue]

Love it when Nas says:

Stood on stages most never cAn
Pyrotechnics and leather pants

then the beat picks up

Makes me every time

Ha! That was it for me too … When I first heard that it was another “Moment”. Like NIKKA

 

[Metal Face]

if Nas can't do it with a Em/Lauryn feature then I guess Jay's gonna do it first

 

[Ziggiy]

Undying love is.

Thats…not what i’d describe as a love song.


That would be like saying NY State Of Mind is a tourist guide…

Death row east legit sounds like a Johnny J pac beat

When do they start sending out the weekly predictions?

Maybe tomorrow?

Rare is right behind EMPD 2 in streams on Spotify both over a million how is my bible the least streamed song on here

 

[GhettoNintendo]

Thankful I got through the day and all the evil I prayed off

The difference between those 4 is that Nas doesn’t make music for the radio/commercial pop shyt

and he’s still in those conversations

GOAT

We keep forgetting about Distant Relatives by the way, which is criminally underrated

This man knows how to drop projects

1994 Illmatic - Greatest Rap Album of All Time
1996 It Was Written - My favorite album - the perfect follow-up
2001 Stillmatic - Return of the prince the boss - crazy concept records, greatest of all time diss record, sickest intro, all in one
2002 Lost Tapes - ahead of his time with dropping a project like this - and doing it so perfectly
2002 God's Son - Another great followup to the previous album
2010 Distant Relatives - 2 great poets
2012 Life is Good - The Bible for Grown Up Rap Albums
2020 King's Disease - Perfect project for the era, flows insane, kept his verses tight. Musically so smooth from beginning to end
2021 King's Disease - Rare form. Straight up. The variety in his flows just even in a single song is crazy.

GOAT

Spoiler

The other albums not listed are amazing too, I just felt like the above are the most complete from beginning to end, and have the most longevity

Dope ...but u left LT2 as far as ''complete from beginning to end''

Thats interesting because I noticed on YouTube that My Bible has the most streams outside of the single and big features.

The rest of them have been media darlings throughout their careers...Nas wasn't as much.
