Nas - King's Disease III (Discussion Thread)

[Budda]

some may not have same view, but Nas and only a few have the subject matter to make you want to hear more albums from this deep in their career. can't lie there's a lot of legends in hip hop that I couldn't care if they released another album, as they'll only just flip what they've done before. But Nas and only a few others from the 90's can still bring new content, ideas, subject matters, perspectives to keep me wanting them to release more music

that in itself is a skill. some rappers struggle after like 4 albums to say something new.

100%

Nas subject matter is what sets him apart. For example, go listen to the Pusha T album and then go listen to KD3. It’s night and day.

True..

But thats what hip hop was once upon a time. You had variety for the most part.

I don't see what Nas said about Cam is the same as 21 Savage's comments. Nas didn't just single Cam out, he was calling out everyone he felt was wack. He even called out N.O.R.E and that was his homie. He was even on a skit on that album that year. It was basically Nas saying "step your game up".

21 said Nas was not relevant out of nowhere.

I can't stand Dipset but lets keep it real: Nas was wrong. That album was dope, that was just Roc vs Nas shyt where people said dumb shyt on the radio. And Nore's album was good.

I don't think it's comparable because Nas was clearly dissing Dipset/Roc and Nore whereas 21 wasn't dissing Nas. He said Nas makes dope music and has a loyal fanbase but doesn't have mainstream relevance - then he specifically started talking about younger listeners. KD3came out, was dope, and Nas fans bought the album. Which is literally 21's point.

i gotta disagree. That album was trash. Cam rhymes were trash and so was nore’s simple ass special ed rhymes. He called it how he saw it. He was frustrated with the industry. Even shytted on nelly. It just all added up at that moment.

‘I stand corrected. I know during that time his rhymes were getting ass cheeks with the computers puting and they was doing a lot of funny style shyt but that album was aight and I even went to see if our timing is off and peeped purple haze and that wasn’t bad either. But I know it was during a corny type of era for cam at that time.

my exact feelings towards this shyt. I’m a nas super fan and supporter but some of ya get too extra over anything pertaining towards the god son that even he would laugh at ya emotions and tell ya chill. It’s girly….

I swear I’ve heard Juelz interview before but this sounds like someone doing a Voiceover

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Rumors Surrounding Juelz Santana's Front Teeth Have Followed Him for Years

Although he never specified the exact substance that brought about the serious tooth decay, many fans and even medical professionals have speculated that it was due to methamphetamine usage, which tends to impact teeth and gums more profoundly than other hard drugs.

It might just be him getting used to his new teeth.

Did they take down the Thun video with enabled comments from Nas's Youtube channel?

 

[Controversy]

Nasty Nas in the area

Fk outta here with this shyt .
21 said what he said n knew exactly what he was saying .
Why are we copping pleas for a grown man when there's AUDIO.

Everybody playing dumb for no gotdamn reason. We all know 21 meant Nas not being posted on blogs everytime he farts. Nas don't get played in the clubs, on the radio, in the strip clubs, young folks not riding around blasting Nas, his music not making noise on social media so how is he relevant. This is the angle 21 was coming from. This is a typical young person's idea of relevancy.

No need to tell lies saying he meant it this way he meant it that way .

Nothing wrong with what 21 said. Except he left out a caveat. Nas not relevant to the YOUTH. But definitely relevant to the CULTURE.

Say it like that.. can't nobody argue with that....N there's no issues

21's tone was dismissive. Like this ain't Nasir Jones they discussing. N he felt the impact swiftly.

Some of you acting like 21 gave a quote in a Magazine. Nah..there's audio n there's context. There can be no misinterpretation

I was looking for reactions from King Ahmad TV but his channel was taken down, cause it got hacked.
