THE GOAT

And its like the beats are perfect; illmatic-like. I wonder if he chose em or had somebody do it. Whatever the case, I hope he keeps stays with it because they all heat; that Cherry Wine joint is amazing.

Going to Aphganistan in February. How is it out there now?

Going to Aphganistan in February. How is it out there now?

In all honesty, it straight fukking sucks

Hopefully you are at a major FOB or a PRT that has decent living quarters and food

if you get stuck at the smaller COPs you will suffer

the violence is worse
February is the worst month to be there to me, it will be cold, raining and miserable

you will be taking freezing showers and walking in pools of mud

 

[SHAQAVELLI]

Sometimes I feel what he feel are "great" albums, we kinda force it. We keep listening to the album, keep memorizing verses and the music becomes easier to listen to.

This needs no forcing. Great from the first listen to the 20th.

 

[dem bath salts]

Just got it. It's a grown man album, def introspective. shyts piff.

 

[blac_da_rappa]

i just dont like that wack nikka at the end spitting them dusty ass bars

 

[JasonSJackson]

Hopefully this album inspires prodigy ass to step his shyt up man

 

[Squirtle]

No Introduction is my favorite track on the album. Great beat and great verses. I give the whole album a 5 out of 5. Only track I skip is Nasty. But only because, I outplayed that song when it first dropped.

I swear I've heard every single song mentioned as someone's favorite. Album is straight hip hop. Motherfukk album sales. It's the music.

 

[AMcV'88]

i still don't fukk with that song with Anthony Hamilton....the rest is great.

i don't know if this is on some stan shyt but when i was back home in NY last sunday and seeing my old ass Italiano grandfather enjoying Stay and Cherry Wine after a funeral... it put a smile on my face.

I think that that the reason fans are harping on sales is because this is one of those albums that NEEDS to be commercially successful, not only for Nas's betterment of Nas's career, but for the overall welfare and continued evolution of Hip Hop as a genre. How many mainstream rap artists are releasing songs like Daughters? Songs like Nasty? Songs that are so deep, well thought out, executed, and written. Nas and Jay-Z are the FIRST middle aged Hip Hop icons to remain relevant for 20 plus years in the industry. They are our Rolling Stones, our Beatles, our Bob Dylan. Life Is Good is a ttrue work of artistry, his success, Failures, heartache and joy are sprawled across this album as if Nas had written the lyrics in a quill steeped in his own blood. This is NEEDED for Hip Hop to be viewed as an ARTFORM to be respected. You like lyrics, dope concepts, and well put together albums that don't sound like a collection of singles? Then go out and SUPPORT one of our only viable commercially recognized artists who continues to push the envelope forward and set the bar ever higher.

Supporting albums such as Life Is Good and showing that they can be commercially successful is how we as fans show that Lost Tapes 2 is a project worth releasing. That artists such as Lupe Fiasco shouldn't be forced to rhyme over bullshyt beats to the point where hes doing interviews talking about wanting to kill himself. That Saigon shouldn't have had to wait for SIX years to release what turned out to be the best debut album of 2011. That artists like Kendrick Lamar, J.Cole, and Big KRIT are good long term investments. We want Hip Hop artists to have more LONG TERM relevance and the best way to do that is support The artists that have already proven long term relevance.
