Nas - Magic (Discussion Thread)

[HNIC973]

Hardest joint on there.

IDK couple tracks I would rank above it 40-16 building The Truth maybe Speechless

 

[Life is Good]

Nas needs more visuals man, we should have got at least 2 more videos from KD2...should already have one out for this and one on way

Why? Y’all don’t give the videos the views they deserve or continue to stream the album past the first week. The support has to match the demand.

No

Madlib is better than Dilla and Hit Boy

Dilla even admitted this

Dilla just gets the hype because he had a movement

Madlib is more texturized and quiet as kept he has alot of work that alot of casuals never heard because they focus on his mainstream releases

Madlib literally has multiple jazz albums under various alias

Hit Boy is cool but its no contest

Agreed, we’re veering into wild territory lol. Hit Boy is a great producer, but Madlib is one of the greatest producers of all time. And far more versatile based off his jazz career alone.

Does that mean I want to hear Madlib and Nas together? No. Their styles don’t mix IMO.

 

[H.S.]

Madlib is a great producer but I don't see him being more versatile that Hitboy.

fukking weirdos coming out talking about Madlib. Go listen to Wu for the children Nas is talking to you. So strange for nobody's telling a universally accepted top 5 rapper how to make a album 30 years into their career. Like I said fukking weirdos

 

[T.H.E.GOD]

One thing I also noticed is how much harder this sounds with some ear phones or in the whip.

[Wild self]

Didn't click but dude looks distraught in the thumbnail.

Cause that album so damn good, even the longtime haters of Nas are like at the crazy quality

 

[T.he I.nformant]

Them nikkas do a crime, I drop a rhyme, it’s the same rush
And they been sending shots a nikka way but they ain’t struck
Can’t fukk with me
I been outside since a buck fifty was the only way to get your face done
Doggystyle CD, turn that “Murder Was the Case” up
Thinking when I drop my first shyt I’m leaving they face scrunched

Nas flexing all over this. Imagine a rapper who hasn’t even dropped their debut listening to a classic like Doggystyle like wait till you hear my shyt. I guess when you got it you got it. From the beginning.
