this album is nas trying to come across as a great musical mogul and gain respect beyond the perceived shallow realm of hip-hop royalty. same thing common tried to do with dreamer/believer.

both attempts failed and both come across as stale, bland banquet tv dinners. i dont use the word "hot" to express music but this album is just not hot. its fukkin boring unless you wanna hear nas write and rap like the 40 year old he is over beats made by 40 year olds. tell me what song on this cd actually gets your blood pumpin and wanna hit the gas pedal and go make money and have fun. i cant find more than a couple.

this is what happens when rappers from the 90s try to come out with an "epic album".

im saying what everyone else is feeling but is too aprehensive to carve out in stone. only thing keepin this in anybodys tape deck is the fact that its a nas album in 2012 and the vague sense of nostalgia that goes along with it (which is enough to keep content those who just feign for anything closely resembling good old golden era hiphop with no charisma or excitability). once that wears off, this will go down as nothing special.

neg me.
:snoop:

So that's what kind of music you look for? music that makes you want to drive a car, make money and have fun?

U sound like a loser bruh I don't need music to make me want to do any of those things! :snoop:

What kind of music makes you want to brush your teeth and wipe ya ass? serious question :pacspit:

he doesnt have to be all peppy and happy but at least put some energy into your music. it doesnt matter where that energy comes from. i know he can do it, even in this 2004-present era. songs like message to the feds, queens get the money, testify.

:aicmon::childplease:Put some energy into it?:merchant: Are you fukking retarded, deaf or just soulless? Nas hasn't sounded this energized since the 90's. Try again.

So what's the age of everyone here? From a cursory gander people are :flabbynsick:

I can't see a 20-25 year old rocking to this. Too old, too 'real' hip-hoppy, too corny.

26 years Old and THIS is a fukkin classic, just like Untitled. Age matters Not. If you can appreciate pure uncut Hip Hop then you CAN'T NOT appreciate this piffness:myman:

yeah im 24. age is not a factor.

u wanna talk real, or introspective, or anything like that meet cormega.

and ive been listenin to him nas az etc since i was 15 so its not about age.

and its not about swag or charisma.

cds like how i got over (roots) are just the opposite. solemn and almost sad. but that shyt doesnt matter if the quality is good. quality is good because theres an energy. a feeling to it. i dont feel shyt off this album. stale.
