[Formerly known as...]

This is up there with KD2 off first listen. My God the highs are high as fukk on this album.

Magic 2 left me a little flat overall but they had this tucked ready and it delivered

According to David Kim this wasn’t even tucked. Nas and Hit conceived, wrote, produced, and recorded this album within a MONTH. Right after the Yankee Stadium show

Makes sense that it's that effortless for them with the output over the last three-ish years. It's astounding to me that they make something of this quality in such a short time. Goat gon' goat. And props to Hit for getting this out of him.

On some Pac shyt.

Like I said somewhere else, Pac is the only rapper who has an excuse for not being my GOAT anymore.

Everybody else just being outlapped thrice over; quadruple, sextuple and all the tuples - Nas is so far ahead right now my top 5 has become

Nas
Nas
Pac
Nas
Prodigy

That’s pretty accurate actually, Based On A True Story Pt 2 is the spiritual successor of Blaze A 50… 25 years later

Reminds me of the storytelling street poet Nas of the 90’s early 00’s.

Stay Alive, Blaze A 50, Tales Of The Hood type shyt

There's an argument to be had, which series was better Magic or KD

I won't answer that tonight, but this has me feeling like it's a 7 game series down to the last shot

What incredible output these last 3 yrs by Esco

We need that game 7 from Nas/Hit to decide properly

 

[DontEemTry]

Pretty Young Girl
Based on True Events Pt.2
Blue Bentley




Speechless Pt2




Nas himself will always bring his A-game lyrically. Call me a bitter ass old head but most of these beats man, they too light for this nikka. I'm sorry, get at me

I been in here shytting on Nas X Hit for a while now especially after Magic 2 but I gotta say I like this one right here, its not mind blowing or groundbreaking or nothing like that but its nice ... nice soul chops and breakbeats.

I'm still saying theres other producers out here that can do this style way better than Hit.

KD3>Magic 3

Magic 3 is nice but KD3 has more consistent bangers

And oh yea, Nas, a Queens legend, just cemented himself as #1 (LL now #2)
