Nas - NASIR (Discussion Thread)

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

This shyt passed the whip test like a motherfukka ridin around 85 degree weather

It would of been nice for nas to have his own week thou atleast

Couldn’t even waited to freaking Tuesday to let nas shine

Jay never stopped nas from shining. Even when he tried. Having too much music to listen to is a 90s problem I miss.

I was feeling cops shot the kid til Kante started rapping.

Low key a Hov feature on White Label would have been fire

Adam & Eve, already my favorite song so far.

If Kante is going to do stuff for Nas, make it like this please. I'm happy to hear my guy rappin but I don't know how I'm feeling the whole project on first listen.

Ok last two tracks are fukking beautiful. I'ma it marinate but on the first full spin those are the only joints that I really really like.

Kanye's singing on "everything" was very nice.

 

[Paper Boi]

i think kanye officially entered the territory where he's a better singer than rapper although he didn't ruin the song where he had a verse either. guess he stepped it up for nas.

i enjoy him on everything hook.

070 Shake killed the hook for "Not for Radio."

Exactly how I feel. Nas had a dope verse and I like how he's rapping over the "Children's Story" sample which gives it an 80s vibe. Then Kanye came in with his verse.

Not only does he sound off, I don't want to hear him talk about police brutality after all the shyt he pulled weeks ago.

 

[Izanami]

Everything (too much singing, especially from Kanye. Too much build up like Jay's Holy Grail. Otherwise would've been a perfect track)

Should've started 2 minutes in. But the production and Nas verses are stellar. Felt like Late Registration era Kanye.

 

[Illeye buckmatic]

I listened to this album like 20 times today. No exaggeration

 

[Paper Boi]

i finally got one listen in. should have gotten it in 48 hours ago. fukk you kanye.


it's very good. gonna give it more spins, but it didn't disappoint.

 

[AkaDemiK]

AAAAAAAAAAEEEEERRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

the cops shot the kid, the cops shot the kid, the cops shot...

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

Who got a link to the OG stream rip?

Im pretty sure that's a PR move that is good for Nas (aswell for jay). Dudes making comparisions anyway...

plus I know jay missed a heartbeat when nas rapped "This ain't knowledge" @ not for radio

Was kinda iffy on this based on the livestream. But now listening to it in earphones and in the whip, this album is flames.
