Technically he was talking bout both Carmen and Kelis. Carmen had the tell all book but Kelis was the one trying to keep his son from him. Carmen never did that to the public’s knowledge

He was even speaking about his tax issues. Saying that his accountant was taking money. Which is what I was tryna tell people when his tax issues first came up. The song isnt in any way the same as Bye Baby. But fukk a HipHopDX review tho. They gave Street’s Disciple like a 4.5. Matter fact. Last year Behold A Dark Horse was in my peoples top 5 albums and they gave that a 3.9. While giving Rosebudd’s Revenge first installment 4.3. Even tho Behold A Dark Horse is the better project

But Nas wasn’t speaking on custody battles on Bye Baby. So another failed comparison. Also he spoke on his financial issues on the track something he didn’t do on Bye Baby. So the comparison is weak bullshyt.

Tanasia sounds like it could've been put on It Was Written. That's how fukking grimy and cold it sounds.

It really reminds me of Ironman beats

@Ziggiy Yo@ I'm sStill tweakin right now on the fact that Nas had/has so much quality in the vaults. By shear numbers, we know and knew he had quantity. We also can all compile a 12-16 track list of his known unreleased tracks that we think can rival the last 2 Lost Tapes installments but Nas is talking Lost Tapes 3 and 4? WTF. We all tripped before but I think I prefer getting 90% unheard tracks with a couple of known unreleased tracks on one of these projects. That way, I think we spend days analyzing the rhymes and absorbing the beats. This is what we do when he does a new album. It seems like he records nearly everything he writes, which is how you put in work. If it's shytty to Nas' high standards, its understandable but someone is going to like it and it will sell. I'm waiting on the interviews. I want to hear some short term plans too.

Sound like a punch in too. If you listen close you can hear the slight change in cadence and overall sound. Like he did one part of the song 1st then came back

I was gonna say this the other day. Something about his baby moms being a dumb whore or something maybe? It would rhyme at least

 

[MikeStamina]

I’ll say one thing Al Jarreau is way better than that bridging the gap shyt from streets disciple

The bold face lies you tell

YOU like it better....

Not sure if this was posted yet, and I'm not going through 200 pages

I listened to it a couple of times, and it’s very good. The first Lost Tapes had better cohesion. Beautiful Life and You Mean the World to Me are my favorite tracks.

Nas explains War Against Love track.

 

[Wall]

Am I the only one who can swear Who Are You was on their copy of Untitled and You Mean The World To Me was on HHID? I've been playing these joints forever.

Album still fire doe
