Albums Nas - The Lost Tapes 2 (Discussion Thread)

[Budda]

Wtf I need to lie for?

What did u learn from that song about Queens Politics? What did Nas address about the book and why he wished it wasn’t released? Why was P mural vandalized? Not to mention the random music history lessons

You a gossip queen ass nikka, you was expecting nas to snitch on wax basically.

Wait Toomp produced a song for Nas

Toomp produced on the N album. He said they recorded 4 songs that didn’t make the album.

 

[spliz]

U mad because 10 tweets complaining about beats lol

Like I said fam. Shut the fukk up.

 

[REAL6]

Perhaps you should go listen to some Drake then. Be warned, he uses Ghostwriters

Bwhahahaha Drake. I mean, if that's who you listen to, it's ok. But don't try and flip who you listen to (Drake) onto others.

What does this say cause I cant see it from my phone for whatever reason.

It's from the Tidal interview he just did. The highlighted portion below

-Says he’s known Havoc since kindergarten. Shoutouts Killer Black

-Says he’s inspired by Richard Pryor

-Says Vernon Family is 12 years old

-Says once you sign your first contract you become a businessman. Says he’s been a businessman since he was 17 years old. Says that if you listen to early Jay-Z records it was inevitable that he was going to become what he ended up becoming.

-Says that he feels like Russell Simmons or Eazy E should have been the first Hip Hop billionaires but they had to break down barriers so that Dr Dre and Jay-Z could get there.

-Calls Dre and Jay-Z his “guys” and that once he becomes a billionaire he’s going to party at their house

-Says that Wu-Tang Clan’s legacy is too “important” to mess up and he’s happy that Mass Appeal documentary was successful

-Says Mass Appeal is going to do Rick James story next.

I don’t have Tidal. Anyone have a link to the interview?

 

[waynep]

That's what I'm saying. I haven't seen the industry push on this album at all. Where's the morning radio shows talking about the release?

You would think this dude wasn't a legend
and just some regular Joe smh

Have ever heard memory lane or destroy and rebuild. Nas is too talented for such a simple track

They don’t know. Toomp is an ATL OG. He is very versatile and can do much more than trap music.

 

[MikeStamina]

Where are all the industry people at supporting this album?
Everybody is quiet acting like it's not out smh

Dude if you're a Nas fan you already won. Stop looking everywhere for vindication.
Nas n MA know this shyt ain't moving no crazy units. This is for the hardcore supporters.
Just be happy with the good quality music from ya mans that's been doing it since 91.
He's a goat, his pocket straight, n the ladies love him. He can't have E V E R Y T H I N G.
Relax. You winning

 

[Cuban Pete]

Queens politics was a beautiful salute 2 P
Didn't think his death would have brought out artistry like that from Nas but I remember when he passed Nas made like 8 separate posts about him with old pics on IG
