This beat is played out but nas makes it tolerable. good track but these stans are on some next level dikk sucking. i thought the drake stans were getting out of hand and nas's minions put em to shame.

This is the funniest part of it all. It wasn't like this was a big debate she was engaged in, she was basically in Jay-Z-Defense-Task-Force-Mode arguing with some random no-name on twitter and her go-to move was basically "Nas got Ghostwriters!"
I don't doubt she's been privy to a lot of insider stuff basically being a paid writer for Jay-Z and she was on the Jay Electronica train as well, but she overplayed her hand here in a meaningless moment.
Nas is in full troll mode rocking over a beat Jay Elec rocked over, hollering the 2 gravy trains Dream was on. He didn't even name Dream or her friends or say anything outside of "i don't got ghoswriters", yet checking their twitters, he got all up in their feelings.
The fact they acting like straight birds over him using an old Dilla beat only proves his point they're just looking for a reason to criticize him. They're not even realizing he's purposefully using a beat Jay Elec rocked over to highlight this ghostwriting point.
Nas should troll even more and shoot a quick video for this with Jay Elec in it on some
shyt.
I FINALLY figured out why this beat was so damn familiar!
TBH, someone should b erapping over EVERY track off donuts. It's phenomenal.
Not sure if its been mentioned by Big Pooh, Joe Scudda, and Chaundon used this instrumental a few years back for "Plastic Cups" track...
......but yeah...Nas killed it..
Did he ever work with Dilla while he was alive?

you can tell those ghostwriting rumors pissed him off
Actually, Nas was put up to rock over this and release it by the founder of Decon Records (now known as Mass Appeal Records). it wasn't Nas idea, cuz all he do is stay high all day.
I mean, he so disconnected from what's going on in the game, that after months of people thinking Droog was him, he ain't even know who he was until he got asked a question in an interview by homie at MTV. Like, even if you not paying attention, you supposed to have people on your team pay attention for you. But now he wants to get back on his 'underground', 'grimey' shyt and make music "like these guys [run the jewels]". okay.
Nas has recorded to a handful of Dilla beats during the ****** album days, at the behest of Jay Elec, but never released em. Yes, Jay told me and many others of us in the 'circle' back then that as well. This isn't some master/grand design to troll dream hampton, myself, or anyone else that have publicly stated he's used writers at the very least, this one time in his career. Because, as many of you have said, who am I and who is dream to even warrant a response from him on a proper song? If what we said held no weight at all, he'd have continued to never address it.
But here we are getting not so sublim'd on a simply adequate outing.
shyt ain't wack, it's just 'okay'.
Who else besides hov, bleek, mega, cam, and 50 has nas dissed on record. i don't listen close enough anymore to keep up (checked out somewhere btwn streets disciple and ******). interesting he'd dedicate so much as a bar, much less a verse and a half to dream and myself. you know, with it being untrue and all
anyway, Nas is my personal GOAT. no rapper (when he's had perfect production anyway) has molded my view on what rap should sound like at it's apex more than him, from his voice, to his topics, to his bars, and no album outside of illmatic exemplifies that better for me either. he just ain't doin' that no more.

Cool to get your perspective. I guess we'll just see it differently much like most art/content is interpreted and consumed differently with only the original artist knowing the actual intent.
You'll take it as adequate, okay, and a boring re-tread of a song your guy Jay-Elec already did a track on. That seems legit especially since your tangentially tied to people involved.
Personally, I'm just happy Nas & his team used his brand and goodwill built up within hip-hop to put this track out with proper Dilla attribution (on the single art and shoutout in the song) opening up the Dilla name to an even wider audience. In this modern era of Mustard/Mike Will on the beat and Drake/Young Thug/RHQ dominating the collective "popular mainstream" ... Nas just put Dilla's name on a track that's #1 on a pretty big site (although I wish he embraced Soundcloud instead of audiomack)
Whether this was intentional or just a secondary-random-trickle-down effect, I don't mind it one bit.

nas reputation is based on his lyrical acumen. what they did was foul. if he aint fight for what he worked his whole life for, then nothing worth fighting for. no one respect took the accusations seriously. the usual twitter gossip hounds did, that was it.

u're a dissaffected ex nas fan?. and are in the "circle"? now it all makes sense. the slander etc.
the goalposts keep moving though. went from damn near a whole album that was ghostwritten to now just this one song that you are basing the accusations on?

What Nas does all day is attend meetings pertaining to his several businesses, spends time with his family (children) & friends, he may have dinner at his sports bar in Hollywood or he might charter a plan to take a mini vacation. He has way more interesting ventures than "getting high all day." Of course he is able to do this with leisure when he not on one of his successful tours.
Question: How are the very people that made the accusation of "ghost writing" so perked up and making this a diss song about them? Nas respects all & fears none...he has love for his haters/enemies.
P.S. Peter had nothing at all to do with Nas making "The Season" because Nas has a very ambitious management team (EMAGEN) that is extremely savy/wise.
was never in Nas circle, but was with Jay Elec since day 2 or 3 and am a decent sized part of the reason anyone even knows who he is.
from jump, i've maintained it was only about QGTM for me. no need to move a goal post if your story is true. I don't know what dream heard.
no one doubts nas can rhyme. but what's rhyming when you run out of material, and gotta call in the reup? Nas lazy. it is what it is.
@Life is Good
lol. oh, not a lot of time for writing rhymes.
Actually, I think the legions of Nas' faithful have made it about dream and to a lesser extent me. ain't nobody perked up and jumping in front of no truck for props or chasin no ambulance. i just been lurkin on here since that legendary 'the nod' post got shared on OKP, saw my initials, and decided to post. i can't control how people are reacting to nas finally acknowledge the 'shared writing responsibilities' being brought to light over 2 years ago. no need to play stupid.
so ambitious it took em 10 years to grab a dilla beat and debut it at a run the jewels event.
yo...stfu and enjoy the song you fukking fakkits...wtf
