Nas - King's Disease II (Discussion Thread)

[spliz]

From what I remember the bootlegs that were floating around when it dropped had 2 different versions that were around like 12 songs long. All the songs that was on it you can get though. Dr. Knockboot, Money Is My bytch, Fetus, Poppa Was a Playa, Hardest Thing To Do Is Stay Alive were some of the songs I remember were on it. I think Find Ya Wealth and We Will Survive was on it too.

Rise and Fall I believe as well.

Dunno. All the tracks they mentioned are on the retail version that came out. If they had heard a double album surely they would have mentioned the other tracks right.

The pic of the review, same as the retail.

Another thing, Timbo is listed as one of the producers on the album but You Won't See Me Tonight isn't on that double disc tracklisting.

Nah nikkas for some inexplicable reason still love Kanye. If he announced another listening concert tomorrow it would sell out

Most of them are the ones who weren’t listening or alive during the CD and LR era.

Everyday I have a new favorite track. Today it’s 40 side. That’s how for me, I know this is a certified classic.

All 3 of your solid albums I would put in the very good category.

fair point..those albums are like classics to like 95% of the rappers but knowing Nas thats the high standard we hold him to

I remember I brought the cd to high school and everybody in the class was fiending to see it. The teacher caught them giving it back to me and he took it and started reading the titles of the songs off. He got to Dr Knockboot and Money Is My bytch and I was like . The class was dying laughing. lol

I can't lie the more I listen to this the thing that stands out is Nas' content is a lot more shallow now. Most of the songs are bragging about money. Now Nas has always been one of the best at fly talk right from the beginning, but man it just sounds like damn near every verse is just money talk.

I'm not saying there isn't any other content beyond that but just feels like he has less to say. This feels closer to a 2000s era Jay-Z album.

And I get it, Nas seems legitmately happy and in a good place. He's not the same person he was in the past but I hold him up to a high standard and with all that's going on in the world and America you'd think he could do more than just rap about material shyt.

I still like the album but that hunger just isn't there from him anymore.

You deserved all the heat that came from this post of yours homie.
