Nas - 'Life Is Good' Thread

[Ukbrotha]

Really?still on about this album cover?

 

[Tom]

Uh no. Have you LISTENED or read any Nas interview over the past couple months? He's enjoying life. Every moment he's taking to appreciate everything he has. Read the recent complex interview, he's not in a place where he's reached rock bottom nor is the album reflecting that mind state.

yea Nas got money and enjoys doing the things he does but that still doesn't change the fact that he's on the album cover with the face looking depressed and confused holding his wife's wedding dress breh.



Sarcasm is solely what the album cover illuminates b.


Someone who has never heard of Nas would look at the cover and probably be like goddamn, that nikka looks right there

the g.o.a.t

The cover is a double entendre.

I might be able to find a third, don't even ask me how

 

[muzikfrk75]

I wonder if he sampled any of the tracks from Hear My dear

That would be dope.

 

[Heafcliffe]

Classic.

I'm sure most people will wonder 'WTF is up w/ the green dress' but it says a lot. The wedding dress, and the only thing she left in the house when he rolled out... but life is good. Can't be mad.

Now that I've seen the cover, I damn near wish he changed the title to 'Life Goes On'

Daps are in order.

 

[Danie84]

I'm hoping he sampled Sparrow.

I really want to beat soulja boi's ass.

So he's parading around the L she left for him? son is dumb as fukk

he'd be dumb (and delirious) if he was on the tip Ziggly claimed he's on....


i don't think so tho, dude knows he's caught Ls and is just ing it up right now.


If u do the knowledge Marvin Gaye's here my dear (the title and album) was some sarcastic shyt also.

If u listen to the opening track he goes "This is what u wanted...here my dear, here is is.."...she was supposed to make alot money off that album but Marvin decided to drop an album with zero commercial appeal (yet still critically acclaimed, Its one of my favs) so she wouldn't eat well off the album.


Nas is on that same Sarcasm tip.....why is it not easy to see?


From the photo alone the album should probably say "Life is fukked up"........


Sarcasm instead was/is the better choice and a more artistic one IMO, its better than simply being blunt and straightforward

 

[profound]

Tom/Killa K always hated Nas. I know why

Spoiler

 

[36 Chambers]

I like the cover but I hate the title

"Life is Good" does not sound like an album to me. shyt is so uncreative
