Nas - King's Disease II (Discussion Thread)

[pez]

Nas said Olu is retired so I doubt we’d get that. But i’m down with everything else you said.


Also if your talking about Terrace Martin, Thundercat & the gang might as well include Bilal too. He’d be dope for hooks.

Something tells me Nas isn't good with his Dad. One of the recent songs I heard him say something like he wish he had his Mom back instead of his Dad. Kind of a dark thing to say about your old man.

Him and Jungle both have made similar statements in the past. I don’t think it’s indicative of their being a real problem. Its just that stream of consciousness style Nas uses in his music

Think Nas verse on composure might be my favorite on here. It reminds me of second childhood. Excellent beat by hitboy I love the horns on there.

The piano +the drums + The bass...
Brunch on Sunday is beautifully crafted fam

 

[Sankofa Alwayz]

While I agree with your post the ironic thing is that Toure LOVES Nas and has defended both Nas and his beat selection several times.


Also its not worth it to be explaining to ANYONE why this guy’s review was flagrant as all hell and deserved EXACTLY the backlash it got. Anyone pretending they don’t understand under the too cool for school “bu bu but REVIEWS DON’T MATTER” bullshyt is simply lying or an idiot and not worth engaging with. A child could understand why quality Hip Hop music such as KD2 should be properly appreciated and the fact that there is such a DRAMATIC difference of opinion between, not only the so called “stans” but also other professional publications is indicative of an unfair bias against an artist which SHOULD be called out, scorned, and highlighted with all due prejudice

How is Touré these days btw? This my first time in years thinking about dude (pause).

Watch this story by LeBron James on Instagram before it disappears.

Bron bumping "Moments". Says it's his favorite song right now.

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

But Em aint for the culture apparently.

Easily swayed by one move.

Im not even an em fan like that but he’s been paying homage since day 1. He’s probably the biggest rap nerd in the game.

 

[Robbie3000]

He rapped so fast I couldn't even understand anything he's saying.

Eminem's verse on Renegade was more digestible. You could understand what he was saying and he didn't fukk up the tempo of the song.

That’s his style now. Impress casuals with fast rapping, corny punchlines and cringe double entrandes.

This dude actually said “shells like Taco Bell”, “you all Santa Claus, cause none of you are real”

Papoose was listening like.

 

[Pop123]

"Count Me In" is straight riding music...that shyt hit different on a dusk dark summer evening with minimal traffic,
