There’s no major buzz for this

Nas stans just have a stranglehold on rap forums(this forum specifically)

Major buzz amongst long time core hip hop audiences you dikkface. Not people that pay attention to da baby n blue balls.
N of course your internet world only extends to the coli. So that makes you an expert.
At 0001 you will be listening looking for songs to hate on..smh

Hopefully this solidifies him as top 3 Rapper of all time.

This could be 45 minutes of needle scratching, Nas been top 3.

Another thing that kind of irks me, and I hope this album puts the argument to rest for sure. is that some people consider unreleased music to be of lesser quality. This is indeed possible in some cases, but not in necessarily in the case of Nas. Nas tries to have concepts albums like HHID, ****** and LIG, therefore, some high quality tracks just may not make the cut because they don't fit the concept. This could be t he case when the inevitable argument ensues... "he should've left that on the album". I do recall reading and article when Nas said he regretted leaving some work off of the ****** album. I am assuming it was "Who Are You" since it was initially listed on the ITunes track list and is now finally being officially released.

Nas said he feels that way about every album

So Diddy’s son, Def Jam, Ghostface, Nav, actresses, actors, Casey Veggies, Benny Boom, Havoc, Busta Rhymes, Lil Cease, Capone and Noreaga, AZ, Anthony Hamilton, Swizz, Laura Styles, Williethekid, Sza, Sky from Black Ink, Fab , and the list goes on and on are all just some Nas stans huh?

 

[Ziggiy]

Of course y'all NEVER want commercial nas
But always judge him with sales n plaques

*I look at anybody that thinks like this sideways

I want whichever fukking Nas that Nas wants to be. Thats why he’s my favorite artist, he can do it ALL and he don’t give a fukk what others have to say.

All these people in here whining about who Nas should and ahouldn’t work with don’t understand a TENTH of that it takes to remain musically relevant in the industry for damn near TWENTY FIVE YEARS. The only rappers who’ve done it are Nas and Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg.

I hope the Nas X Alc track is on some 2011/2012 Alchemist production, he was on a crazy wave then




Honestly happy to get not one but two Nas X Rza tracks
