And nas came back on what is one of the worst beats ever but even that couldn't derail the ass beating he put down on waxThey forget to mention Kanye produced Takeover which almost ended Nas's career
Nas - NASIR (Discussion Thread)
- Thread starter Dylmatic
- Start date
he actually adressed it one of the songs told them to write their lil blogs he could give a fukk
that's all they are getting.

RIP MR. SMOKE
I'm shocked there's nas fans saying this is his best album since stillmatic. This shyt isnt remotely close to lost tapes. I'd even take god son over this. Nothing on here is fukking with mastermind, book of rhymes, heaven, or revolutionary warfare.
I understand it's been a long time but theres no way anybody can listen to god son and tell me nas is still at that level. His flow on white label and cops is lazy as hell. Dude falls off beat multiple times and its hard to listen to. Just dont think kanye did nas justice here at all. Nas needs to get with producers who are still in their prime. Kanye just doesn't have it anymore.
Nas is still in my top 5 all time and that will never change. I'm not hating on anybody who loves this album. But be honest with yourselves. Nas is clearly not the same rapper he was even 10 years ago.

Damn as a grown nikka with acne. That ish is etherous .
Zo better leave that man alone .
When the media slings mud, we use it to build huts
Irrefutable facts, merciful, beautiful black
Beloved brother, you fail to embarrass him, harassin' him
To my life, your life pales in comparison
So go write whatever blog, messiness is not ever the god
Do what's necessary, I'm never worried
Listen vultures, I've been shackled by Western culture

I just think you overreacting. imo this is somewhat of a rushed project, this isn't what he's been working on the last 6 years. And to say he's not the same rapper he was 10 years ago just sounds foolish because the last 3 projects (Untitled/DR/LIG) we're all pretty good.

Apparently the flow critique is a thing...
Nas' flow has always been 'jazzy' .
The first verse on 'Nas Is like' is very unorthodox structure/flow wise. It almost doesnt make sense but it sounds good to me.

Maybe its the Stan in me. But i don’t hear this supposed issue with the flow on the album. I mean if it were like the first two verses of that Future collab he put out a few months ago i could see the argument.
But Nas was rapping his ASS off on this Nasir joint. His flow on Bonjour and Adam & Eve was perfection

Is he talking about Nas or Jay?
Cops shot the kid. Get Scorcese on the phone. We need visuals. 
Yeah, I don't get the broad critique. I have issues with maybe 4 or 5 lines MAX. These two especially:
Nas was out of pocket on NY STATE OF MIND.
PREMIER purposefully left in Nas saying "I don't know how to start this" because he said he'd never seen anyone catch the beat in a way Nas did.
He's always had that Jazz thing where he rhymes over unorthodox beats but also rhymes in unorthodox ways.
I'm def not saying Nas never sounds lazy, but like @Ziggiy said that's not what I'm hearing on this album. He has that Ghostface thing going where he's an experienced Mc who sounds comfortable as fukk and steps it up/down when HE feels like it.
He has a line like "I don't buy beats I sell verses" or sth, I feel like he's alluding to this critique niccaz have on him. Again it's also why I said a few pages back he's one of the rapdaddies of the slowflow crew (Roc Marci/Ka/Meyhem..).

two things, kanye had a better verse than nas on cops and adam & eve is the song of the year.

Why should he be tho?
I get where u coming from but why should we expect rappers to be the same person they were years ago
