This is also on the tape from the Untitled sessions and leaked in 2011...it's decent. Better than that Backyardigans and Kanye My World track.
I remember some complaining that it had no drums but other than that its so much better than Jarreau of Rap on every level.

Lol I find it hilarious that nas releases this as the first song almost as if he’s trolling

Some real "marketing geniuses" over there at Mass Appeal. What a joke. After NASIR you would think his team would make this a smooth rollout. Instead, the only talk is about how bad the song is. I remember when the 3rd track on an album was guaranteed to be fire!! Smh.
The GOAT's album rollouts used to be
. Now they're cringeworthy.
I'm hoping the rest of the album is incredible in order to kinda make sense of this track as some sort of unique, experimental joint. (Ex: Kendrick's "Backseat freestyle")

It ain’t in no danger unless Push drop something

They should cut their ears off cuz that song is the epitome of classic Nas Escobar

Who Are You is excellent
This Jarreau shyt is goofy as fukk tho. Let’s all be honest if this was on Lost Tapes 1 you’d be pissed
I’m just upset that he sorta tarnished his own project like this. There wasn’t a single weak song on The Lost Tapes. There wasn’t even an “ehh” joint, 12 songs of straight fire
The song isn't as bad as the section in the Instagram clip makes it sound. I respect what Nas is trying to do. Maybe it would be cool if he created a different alter ego for the more experimental stuff?
Even if he put stuff out as "Nasir Jones", it would be nice to let us know if we should be expecting something artsy.

Maybe they knew this one was bad and just wanted to get it out of the wayI just want to hear the convo that resulted in a professional label and a rapper's team deciding this was the best song to use as a first single. I want to hear someone argue this was the best songs to preview the album, turn the page from Nasir, hype the tour, etc.
It's not terrible but brehs. How is your first release from LT2 worse than every song on LT1, by a wide margin. Your album is full of big producers but you drop the single with...Eddie Cole, at midnight. I just don't get it.
Album has to be better. That's all I'm focused on at this point...

The song ain't half bad, but I think it was a mistake to even release a single when your album is nothing but unreleased material anyways. Could had went with another song to further build anticipation
Should had just moved up the date a week early ant just dropped the whole album.

fukking idiots releasing experimental song as a single 
this shouldn't even made the album. Go experiment all you want but you need a safe track that you know fans will like it and buy the album. Not this bad experiment of a track.
