I listened to cipher sounds and rosenbergs podcast on spotify just now and nas is the most unfairly criticized goat I've ever heard. No other legend gets any of the criticism nas gets. If anybody wants to listen its call Juan ep life. Its the welcome 2022 episode. They are still comparing his old music to today and nitpicking everything.

They obviously don’t think too highly of them. Lol. This right here tho. Should show u cats these nikkas not Nas fans. It is what it is. :yeshrug:. I just wish they would just flat out say it tho rather than act like they are fans of his and that HE’s doing something wrong,

I said the exact same thing to some folks on Twitter before.. Just say ur not a fan and keep it moving... I'm not a Drake fan so he can do no right in my eyes. Don't pretend to care for his music he's not for me.

Some of y’all are just nit picking hit-boy right now. I’m not saying you gotta have him as a top 3 of all time, but he laced Nas with these albums. Fair enough if you don’t feel certain tracks but they did over 30 songs, y’all can’t tell me you have a problem with every single one of em.

they sound like 98-01 era Nas beats, which is perfect for me cause that’s where I feel Nas fits best. I mean illmatic and it was written was classics but they are so centred on the projects whereas I feel Nas artistically really came into his lane between I am… and Gods Son and matured so much as an artist around that time.

They aren’t fans of Illmatic NAS. They are fans of Illmatic. The product, that’s about it. Just say that. And keep it pushing tho. Don’t act like ur some Nas fan and he’s just been doing everything wrong for 30 years. Lol

That's exactly what I tweeted, they're illmatic fans, that's it. Which is cool, I'm not gonna knock a nikka for being that, but admit it instead of the passive aggressive bs you be on...that also means the backhanded compliments. Eminem has been mediocre for the most part for the same twenty years and he don't get this level of scrutiny...ion get it lol

Your fault for listening to Rosenberg he knows nothing about rap cliche underground type fan who doesn’t know shyt about black music, rap fans who don’t have a understanding of other forms of black music should always serve as a red flag to people.

Plus he still bitter about Nas mistaken him for Eminem’s manager :russ:

Exactly, you would think after the first 10 years of hating you would realise that you just aren’t a fan of dude. Why is it so hard to say “I was a fan but I’m not anymore”.

Haha you right. The reason I like hearing it is because it confirms what I already know. And these people control New York radio. That's the sad part. This is part of the reason nas doesnt get the national love or attention he deserves. Cipher sounds is New York dj I think.

Honestly I’m surprised Cipha Sounds feels that way.
