Nas - King's Disease III (Discussion Thread)

The follow up bar makes it better

By the time you see us, we just turned tides even

What I love about Nas is his subtle Entendre work. You can miss when he does it because the way he flows. It never feels like it's emphasized... This ain't no hype we in the Belly of the Beast.. Beast was going to be the name of the sequel that never got off the ground. Not an entendre but I love that line.

Correct, the belly of the beast refers to revelations also, if you remember the bars before were he read Jesus diary and went to tell the streets.

he read Jesus diary and went to tell the streets

That line is hard. I got "Legit" on repeat.

Yep and you could also interpret the line as ‘no hype’ meaning this ain’t no movie music video etc this is real life.
