album is trash. give it 2 months. and come back and tell me how u feel.

dont worry. everybody will respect u for the true hip hop head u are when they see the life is good album restin on the mantle.

i feel bad for nas. hes gonna be lookin at his bank account blowin up, thinkin, "damn i really went out with this one. :smugfavre:"

truth is he's been surrounded by yes-men his whole career and in change, will never learn to adjust his sound and keep it simple and rip tracks over superb beats.

he's not hungry.

I want to apologize to the god Nas for riding with jigger thru the beef way back...nikka Nas still dropping soulful and lyrically impressive music. Camel can attempt to do it but it doesnt come off the same way IMO

thought u'd never ask. :obama:

unfortunately, there hasnt been 5 albums in the past five years that warrant being typed out. if u'd allow me to include all projects (not just physical releases), i can probably push out a top 5.

favorite releases since 07 in no order off the top of my head:

black milk- album of the year (borderline)
diamond district- in the ruff
the roots- how i got over
cormega- born and raised (borderline)
currensy- covert coup
big krit- return of 4eva
currensy- weekend at burnies
currensy- pt1 and pt2 (combined as one if thats ok :smugfavre:)
j cole- the warm up
jay-z- blueprint 3
kid cudi- man on the moon (borderline)
wiz khalifa- k&oj
currensy- stoned immaculate
wiz khalifa- taylor allderdice
common- finding forever
elzhi- elmatic :mjpls:
sean price- jesus price superstar
kendrick lamar- section 80
yU- the earn
skyzoo- the salvation
------------
if youre wondering whether some dude tossed around no limit and cash money for years named currensy is better to me than the guy who put out the best hip hop album in history named nas since 07, the answer is yes.

and if youre wonderin if a detroit rapper's rendition of nas' classic album, illmatic, is better to me than life is good itself (at this point 3 days since leak), the answer is yes.

due to sheer volume released from Pittsburgh Wiz, id probably be forced to put even him ahead of nas since 07 :lolbron:

-----------
thats how it is here in 2012. if you wanna know who i'd like to see puttin out quality today, it'd be nas over all of these newcomers of course. but its just not happenin.

and im not gonna salivate over nas' most newest shyt just cuz its a nas album in 2012 with no id/large pro production and crown it best album of the year just because i want him to come out with some top of the line no doubt about it classic. you guys are settling.:smugdraper: its too late for that. this album is like a fukkin english muffin sittin there on the table to me all stale with no jelly or butter. :pachaha:

nope. that track is touch.

is just me or does it sounds a bit like black thought on the second version when the beat comes back?

:ahh:

Its one of my fav songs on the album

1. Stay
2. Where's the love
3. A Queens Story
4. Back When
5. Bye Baby

my top 5 songs on the album, but its filled with bangers, he sounds a little like thought at the beginning of his second verse. On another note, I agree with Lieutnant Dan when he said this is Nas's American Gangster, but I got to put this album over AG though, if the replay value stays this high, I'll give this album classic status
