Lets keep it 100 Nas fans

When you saw (Skatt Attack) in the tracklisting you lowkey got worried, right?

Nas experiments and has experience with creating music outside of what people expect. He is not just creating for his fans. He likes different sounds and is comfortable with sharing it. Everyone doesn’t have to like it or accept it.

This is an excuse that only works for Nas lol but i get it

Y’all can’t be enabling this man. Otherwise we woulda been getting shyt like this out back when

Brehs wanted Nas to be trapped, man. When you think about the criticisms IWW faced...it becomes clear a lot of dudes wanted Nas to just be OC. No disrespect to OC...but a dude with two albums people liked before he fell off the map, and even if he made a comeback (like OC did with the Apollo Brown album) those same old heads wouldn't support it.

Nas' career is far from perfect but he's done a great job of hitting at the right time. IWW saved his career and made him a star. I Am was a huge success (and he fed the streets with the unreleased joints). Stillmatic revived his image. Life Is Good helped define how a rapper SHOULD age gracefully. Yea having Illmatic in his back pocket was very important...but Nas wouldn't be NAS if it wasn't for the hits that came after that.

Cut the bullshyt. OC stayed putting out dope albums. He actually even made a semi jiggy record in Bon Appetit but it still had monster cuts from Buckwild on it.

Nas just made LOTS of garbage. Inexcusable trash that speak to a lost, shockingly dumb man. This Jarreau shyt is par for the course.

But hey, he may rap about shooting dice or wearing guess over a Pete Rock banger so the stans can pretend he’s still the man another year.

He’s rapping really well. The song is horrible tho. Sound like some shyt Eminem would make.

Didn’t read your post

Said the same shyt

Corny melody and following it flow wise


Very disappointed man

 

[Life is Good]

Dude and his team better smarten up on the music side.

LOL! Nas has been making music for damn near 30 yrs. Nas is music smart, highly developed & capable of expressing his art in different music forms: rhythm, pitch, melody, and timbre. In other words his love of music is not based on the typical hip hip sound. Nas is not new to this he is true to this. What one person doesn’t like another will treasure.

 

[Mike the Executioner]

This is like if "Summer on Smash" was the lead single for Life is Good.

I don't think we should jump the gun yet. It's The Lost Tapes II. Once we hear the other 15 tracks, we can forget this one is even on it.
