[Deltron]

lol at Nas releasing a 20 yr old compilation tape. how about releasing some new shyt? Nasir was horrible. no wonder he releasing old shyt, cuz hes trash now

 

[CourtesyFlush]

This shyt is really showing me how rough Nasir was, those beats just weren't meant for Nas. He's on his A game here

 

[Ziggiy]

Is there a list of when these songs are from?
I think vernon family is HHID, beautiful life from LIG

Correct and Correct

Lost Freestyle is also from LIG

You Mean the World is from HHID

Who Are You and War Against Love is from Untitled

The Art Of It and Queensbridge Politics are original Lost Tapes specific tracks

Why is Kid Capri all in Nas’ comments? I hope it’s not shade. He posted the same thing on 2 of Nas’ posts.

Because he's clout chasing

 

[Cladyclad]

Nas lyrics on here ain’t wow me. They just good. Not elite at all

 

[No Homo]

jarreau of rap is straight piff. some of yall need to clean the wax out of your ears. for one the beat is crazy and nas killed it. 2 its jazz and hiphop fusion. nas is the best

So this where Nas got the hook for It Never Ends?

Of course. Prodigy/Alchemist collab “New York shyt” flipped those lines as well.

The Making of Nas' 'It Was Written'

Nas: We worked on “If I Ruled the World” for probably two months.

Poke: Nas did a couple of those verses over because it just didn’t work for the concept of the record. Some of the lines didn’t work with some of the records that we were doing, across the board. But sometimes it was just magic and everything worked.

As an artist, sometimes you get tunnel-vision and you don’t see every other aspect. Nas would always ask, “What do you think about this? What do you think about that?” and we would give him our real opinion, like, “Nah, I don’t think that verse will work” or “I don’t think that line works."

This is not what u made it seem like.

 

[King Poetic]

First 5 songs so far, I give Nas 4 solid mics

About to listen to the rest

 

[Tasha And]

Halfway through. shyt is dope so far.
