Albums Nas - The Lost Tapes 2 (Discussion Thread)

[spliz]

aside from him slightly draggin his feet on "im gona have to leave ya" and kanye intro on everything being too long

albums is flawless to me (i prefer the unmastered version tho)

it was the best out of kanyes group and the 7 sins theme was FIRE





i agree i think this is better than kings disease which my lil brother disliked

he thinks you can create a masterpiece using LT2, KD and Nasir and this is his;

1) lost
2) qb politics
3) art of it
4) the cure
5) queens wolf
6) blue benz
7) war on love
8) car 85
9) adam eve
10) 10 points
11) simple things
12) full circle

It Never End’s could be added too.

I can see preferring this over KD too. KD feels more like a real album obviously but this might have more standout songs. Both are great though.

 

[The Dust King]

It Never End’s could be added too.

he wasnt a fan

thought it was light

No Beautiful Life?

his position was similar to another posters position on here

i herd this nas song alredy he talked about this stuff etc

Ran this album back this morning and can’t BELIEVE this shyt was hated on. The response to this is why i’m happy Nas doesn’t listen to anyone who bytches about wanting certain sounds and producers on his “true” albums. The man had RZA, Alchemist, Pharrell, and PETE ROCK give him heat and nikkas still complained.


Nas rapped his ass off on these songs

Bro I’m not even gonna hold u I think Nas may even have a better album than King’s Disease in LT2 if u do the tracklist the right way.

 

[Big Dick]

The Art Of It is an amazing cut. Nas floating on a great beat and absolutely killing it. Vernon Fam was dope, he killed the verses on Tinasia too.

100% c/s, I still don’t understand how fans can call this mid. This shyt was fukkin dope. I saw one review sayin Nas was trying to rap too good on it like oh my bad, sorry a rapper actually is trying to kill it while you guys are doling our praise to hacks who don’t even write their music.

No Bad Energy
Vernon Family Youtube Version

Queens Wolf
It Never Ends
QB Politics
Beautiful Life

To each his own. LT2 was a fantastic album, one of my faves to drop in the last 5 years. But I still don't see the hype around Kings Disease. It def ain't seeing LT2, not even close, but whatever.

 

[TBdaGhost]

shyt been in rotation since it dropped

LT2 > Bandana
Only album on par with it that year was Marcielago unless I’m forgetting something.
