Albums Nas - The Lost Tapes 2 (Discussion Thread)

[ManBearPig]

God’s Son - 3.5/5
Nasir - 3.5/5
Stillmatic - 3.5/5
Nastradamus - 3/5

Basically everything other than the top 3 are various shades of average or inconsistent quality.

Breh you're saying Nasir is as good as Stillmatic. Stillmatic only a 3.5 outta 5??? Let alone God's Son

I know its all opinions but these are words from an idiot

Stillmatic had classic tracks on it, and also a bunch of trash. Nasir had about the same ratio of songs that I like to ones that I didn't as Stillmatic. Although if I took the best 7 tracks of Stillmatic, its a 5 star album and Nasir obviously isn't.

As I was writing the list I realized it doesn't matter, they all have some amazing highlights and also a bunch of shyt that I never listen to because they suck balls like 'Smokin'' or 'Rule'.

Street nikkas loved this shyt. To each it’s own I guess.

Nas in my top 5, but this album full of skippable album cuts. shyt you might nod your head to but never give another listen to.

I can't stop listening to it, it's got some of nas best ever tracks.

Smokin is dope.

An album with 2nd childhiid, you're the man, Stillmatic Intro, Ether, and What Goes Around cant get any lower than a 4/5

Some of y'all album ratingsI Am God Son Stillmatic anything less then 4 mics is blasphemy.The amount of classic tracks on those albums no way any of em below 4 mics(Stillmatic case at least 4.5 minimum).Coli is literally the twilight zone of musical opinions

I know I'm gonna get shyt on but I was pretty underwhelmed. Don't get me wrong Nas is rapping his ass off here, which is all I should pretty much ask for. But man some of these beats and hooks are atrocious. Too many slow songs. I know that Nas has matured and all but I at least need a Blaze A 50 type track!

Don't forget Destroy&rebuild Rewind Got yourself a Gun One Mic Every Ghetto(might be most underrated song in Nas entire catalog)

So is Rule, and tbh I feel the only reason people say Braveheart Party is trash is because Swizz produced it(I think it’s decent but I definitely don’t believe it’s trash)


Skatt Attack is trash and I would listen to Braveheart Party before that song any day

 

[Dat Migo]

Lame that he could not get Frank Ocean to re-record the hook.

 

[Ziggiy]

 

[prophecypro]

this really might be his most polarizing project yet, Im surprised at who loves or hates it

 

[Ball]

The future of hip-hop is in good hands

Then go play blaze a 50
Y'all always find ways to complicate shyt that's not complicated.
Nas working with producers y'all been begging for, but now the beats are atrocious. Smh
Just stick to the shyt you like. Leave Nas to cats that get it
