Flow was showing signs of shakiness on LIG.
March Madness and that other song with Future just added to the fears.
It goes past the flow now,which you could argue were just beats Nas couldn't handle,which he has a weakness over certain beats. But now it seems like the bars are just plain uninspired,unlike LIG.
Hopeful is not the right word for this album,this will be Nas biggest reach he has ever taken,and I don't mean that in a good way. I suggest real fans look away this time,integrity will be comprimised.
