Nas - King's Disease II (Discussion Thread)

[spliz]

To me, it sounds like King's Disease Nas is in the same zone Jay-Z during The Blueprint.

Not forcing anything, just going with the flow while effortlessly flexing on the competition.

I remember ppl saying Jayz wasn't as lyrical on that album.

But he didn't have to be, he capturing a vibe.

Perfect comparison.

Went back to Life Is Good today, hasn't changed my opinion. It's like a 9 to me. Summer On Smash is truly a wack ass song.

Spicy and YKTV aren't anything special but they're fine and don't detract from the listening experience.
SOS is dogshyt and one of the few Nas songs that I just can't stand.

The only other knock is sequencing for SOS (shoulda been sequenced to the trash bin) and I still cannot believe they chose to follow up Queens Story and Accident Murdered with...Daughters

I love those songs but going from Nas rapping about Wayne Perry to his daughter in like a minute is just so bizarre.

Other than those LIG is truly perfect. I would rank KD1+2 higher because they flow better as albums and don't have any songs that I skip.

Replace SOS with Roses, Trust, Adult Film or Beautiful Life and then put Daughters somewhere near the start or end tho and I would prefer LIG.

Bruh I swear i dont understand how some people don't like that song. That joint is a banger.

I simply chalk it up to three reasons:

1) Some ppl don’t like Trap beats

2) Some ppl prolly feel uncomfortable hearing NaS on a Trap beat

3) Some ppl may lowkey be mad as hell that NaS can ride a Trap beat more effortlessly without coming off unlike their favorite living 90’s rap artist.

A remix where Lil Baby actually spits would be flames

So many possibilities. I'd like a KD 2.5 if possible
