Seeing how much love the second half of the album is getting this may be an unpopular opinion - I'm tempted to say that the first x3 tracks might be the strongest opening run Nas has had since Stilmatric Intro to Got Ya Self a Gun...
'Take my word like you would from the Book of Revelations'
Hard to deny that, at this point, Nasir Jones is the greatest living rapper. I'm sorry but you cannot be a credible hip hop fan if you don't acknowledge his claim to the GOAT title.
I remember his promo run into Life is Good where he was killing features left, right and centre - thought that he wouldn't peak beyond that. What a career man.
Now all I'm hoping for is that he appears on Doe or Die II to bring it full circle
All facts, especially about the first 3 track opening.
Pitchfork, Rapreviews, and Rolling Stone shytted on it
TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?
I walk around a little edgy already

Those final words are so inspiring
Nas showing love to the I.E.
The real heart and soul of Socal

That title could go to Pressure,Nas Is Good, Composure, Store Run, My Bible etc. that’s how good this album is.
Edit
The Beat change on Rare and The Cure are so cinematic it’s mind blowing
