This is a 3.5 mic album. It'll stack up with the year's best. It's disappointing on the heels of LIG. I don't want this to be the last Nas album.
I didn't hear any issues with him being off beat. There were no tracks where he blacked out with the flow. Lyrically this is sharp.
The production is good...but not what it should have been. I imagine I'll play this quite a bit.

I hope the disappointing sales gives him leverage in negotiating clearing samples for the albums he will release independently through Mass Appeal. If that's the plan. I hope he releases music like crazy. Not dropping anything for six years, again, would be insane.
I’m bumping this up to 4 mics. shyt just flows perfectly and once it ends I want to play it again :psalute:

Yo, Not For Radio grew on me something crazy, it’s like one of my favs on the album now :wow:

That sample :ohlawd:
In all of Nas' albums, his intros have always been one of my favorite tracks. Not for Radio is pretty much like an intro with Puff ad libbing. Good tone setter.
It's my ringtone:trillmatic:
