I thought about this thread the other day re-listening to God’s son

Nggas was up in arms when I said let’s pump the brakes calling Magic one of Nas’ best. It wasn’t a disss to the album , it was credit to Nas. If cats are og Nas fan it’s bc of the depth and emotional levels he goes. And current Nas can never in a million years reach those levels again. No rapper could. You can’t replicate his mom dying, going at it with jay, being counted out, etc.

So yea these albums are dope, but even a slightly lesser produced prime Nas album is gonna last longer bc the content is so rich. Ie There’s no way in a million years he can recreate Dance that song is worth 3,4 ‘hot’ songs ….but so called Nas fans after a week say Magic is top 5

Modern Nas can easily make a better dance

No he can’t because the circumstances will hopefully never be the same.

With the heavy rumors of a Magic Part 2 coming next week I spun this back today.

Speechless is such a FIRE intro

The Dedicated beat switch always gets me

That’s what set the album off for me. I’ve said that intro is retarded…. Breh… “I don’t even know what’s going no more” is the perfect way to what type of time he’s on. And then that beat drop… I wouldn’t have cared if Cassidy produced that fukking song. The god was spitting g.
