Albums Nas - The Lost Tapes 2 (Discussion Thread)

[prophecypro]

Who the fukk told him it was a good idea to release this and as the first full track

 

[prophecypro]

hilarious that thats the most effort he's put into his flow/delivery in about the last 10 years and it was for that bullshyt.
i get what he's trying to do but this should have stayed in the vault.

tell us you're dropping Lost Tapes 2, get everyone excited and drop what sounds like a parody.
shyt sounds like it belongs on some cartoon.



Nas could mush their mother out the way in the supermarket, she falls, cracks a hip and they'd find a way to make an excuse for Nas.

Disagree with that cause he was focused and flowing throughout the Life is Good era and even in 2016.

But yeah this was a suicidal move to do and put this on an album even if its just a compilation

 

[prophecypro]

He gotta get a better team around him, i know esco a legend but somebody should have told him not to ever release this , and how the fukk is this what they chose as the first single?

I mean I thought his new team was pretty good since he got with them a decade ago and they cultivated Life is Good, but given he didnt release anything after for 6 years, maybe we need to take second look at G Code and them

 

[prophecypro]

Exactly. Like if it was a jazz ep or some shyt id probably rock with it more but this gon be an instant skip for me otherwise

You know Im gonna go head and argue if he made a experimental Jazz Ep and this was on it, it would still be bad.

Nas is my all time favorite but this is a mess. I couldn’t make it past 30 seconds

Not a good look when your first official release/"single" is getting completely flamed by fans, and on twitter. Just saying...clearly a lot of tracks on the album that would have been better to release to garner buzz a week before release. Last thing you want to do is release a track that's worse than anything on the previous LT album...

Hey breh, all publicity is good publicity getting free advertisement for the drop

Also maybe we misunderstood. Maybe these tapes were lost for a reason

Track wasn’t that bad but definitely not a first drop and definitely has to be on a concept album. And I don’t think this will be one...

 

[Surreal]

Wow this is lovely to me

 

[valet]

Im convinced Kanye cinvinced him to release this song

 

[prophecypro]

Literally the only thing I can say about this is, at least he dropped now so it wouldnt distract it from the rest of the album and dominate the convo as like the second track

Thats it

 

[Big Mark]

NOW DO CATS UNDERSTAND WHY BIG MARK AND OTHER BREHS BEEN SAYING WHY THEY WANT RISE & FALL AND MY WORST ENEMY AND OTHER JOINTS WE'VE HAD FOR YEARS

LOLOLOL

Lol

 

[SoulController]

no seriously tho...whats going on ? why is this so bad?

 

[Mortal1]

Jarreau Rap

 

[FreshAIG]

I can’t get jiggy with this shyt.

 

[Sinister]

I literally see nothing wrong with the track.

 

[BiggWebb79]

Should've stayed lost

Maybe it'll fit better with the tracks before and after it
