Rise & Fall is a great song. Every time i play it i listen to Amongst Kings right after. They seem similar in a way

Eerie type beats

Everytime i listen to Undying Love I listen to Amongst Limgs afterwards because Undying Love was supposed to be the end of Disc 1 and Amongst Kings was supposed to be the intro of disc 2

Do you include the after life skit in between? I heard that the Pray joint was supposed to come after among kings.

Idk about that, Pray is in between Big Things and KISSING on the cassette version of I Am


Amongst Kings ends the album on the advance copy of I Am

So Among Kings and the ski made it past the leak and actually made it to the advance copy. It deserves an official release. I'll take these right now and be totally happy with it as Lost Tapes 3, even through in never gonna give it up and When Thugs Die as a bonus. LOL

Yo, I’m a Nas Stan and I can’t believe I never heard this track before. :mindblown:

Even with the high expectations he has set, he somehow manages to catch me off guard and I can’t help but be in awe of what he can do with the pen sometimes.

Goat gon' goat breh !!! And some of his late 90s writing is the most impressive without a doubt
