Even Tony Yayo dropping fire emojis on Nas' recent insta post.
Taraji said whole album crazy. Benny said Nas on fire. Plug from De La giving Nas super props. Young Guru gave him props. Busta been giving mad props. Etc etc. I feel like people catching up to it.

i have no idea in terms of raw numbers how good that but nice to see Rare the highest rather than it just being Eminem hype.
seems like the streams are picking up 40 side YKTV more than likely be over a mil by mid day. Songs like Moments No Phony love picking up steam as well both were barely over 600K yesterday when updated now 766K 761K. Seems like the word of mouth how good this album is working. Even Count Me In was like 570K now 609K edit The Pressure basically 1.1mil

He did the same for Kings Disease part 1 too
Imma give yall some secrets. Them G Unit nikkas did NOT wanna diss Nas. Banks told me out his own mouth. It’s funny cause as weird as The Game is he’s the only one who actually publicly said he wasn’t gonna diss Nas no matter what 50 said. 50 got mad at him and said he was unloyal and dropped him from the crew.

I'm just going to go out of the way and say this is a modern classic already. Don't care! :wow:


The way it’s going I think it’s an instant classic

it’s still sitting at 96 on metacritic with a 9.5 user rating with over a 100 user reviews

the public is acknowledging the album greatness

people that I had no idea would be into the goat are saying how this album is a masterpiece

that's why I said yesterday that mainstream/industry heads are giving Nas his props in his comment sections even if you don't see his album posted on their gram:


It’s crazy cause while it’s more subdued by celebrities. I think it’s gettin more consensus love if that makes any sense to u. Like it’s less people hating on it. Gettin reviewed better. And from what it seems it’s even doing better commercially. I don’t understand why Swizz or none of them showing love ESPECIALLY after that solid Nas did for him and DMX earlier in the year but it’s whatever.


if you look in the comment sections you'll see swizz and all those cats showing love to the album

Even 50’s disses seemed half hearted. He never really engaged with Nas lyrically outside of Piggy Bank. He skated around Don’t Body Yourself and never responded to the barbs on Queens Get The Money.

I believe that Banks in particular son probably idolized Nas as an MC

Yea. This was back in like 05. He was like he was excited to get in the game and possibly work with Nas and get his respect but 50 turned around and dissed him and was alienating them from people they grew up fans of. He said he made the shyt not fun cause of it.
