Nas VIBE interview: JAY and EM both decline to hop on "daughters" remix

[HollywoodP]

Jay wanted Nas on Empire State of Mind...sometimes shyt dont work out...Oughta have Common and Ghostface on it.

 

[Hannibal Fox]

that beat wouldn't fit either of them

they would sound over some soulful shyt like that, we all saw how much Jay struggled on The Joy

 

[2CT]

you right, but that that was 10 years ago

imagine European Grey Poupon Hov on dem beats

 

[prophecypro]

Common would have fit on that too and he got a daughter.

 

[MewTwo]

What about Ice Cube? He has a daughter. Should be Nas ft. Common and Ice Cube.

 

[McPiff]

if im readin correct, he only wanted Em on the Daughters remix and Hov for other things but schedules wont let them. why nikkaz actin like Hov wont do a song about his daughter when he did one at the start of the year. and with the song topic i dont think Hov would fit it since his daughter was just born and lives with both parents. the song is about raisin a daughter as a single father while she growin from young girl to woman.i guess Hov could talk about it from a different perspective, but again doesnt seem like he was asked.

Exactly.

These mothafukkas CAN'T read.

 

[HollywoodP]

Common would have fit on that too and he got a daughter.

thats why I said it...Common and Ghostface...they both got daughters and they've both made dope shyt with No ID...and Nas.

 

[Sam Peel]

 

[RhymesWell]

Lil wayne would be a good fit....on this type of song he wouldn't have too much leeway to say anything ridiculous and a bunch of corny punchlines.

Wayne on this would've actually been possibly dope. I didn't really like the original so a remix version would've been pretty cool.

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

Yeah he already spoke on his daughter a bunch brehs. Hes really only interested in talking about murders he'll never commit and using stupid voices. You know, fresh stuff.

 

[ROFL_GUY]

He did have some new subject matter on Recovery but it was wack. He should stick to rapping about killing people and butt fukkin' hamsters and shyt.

[Verse 3 - Rapped]

Man, if I could sing, I'd keep singing this song to my daughter
If I could hit the notes, I'd blow something as long as my father
To show her how I feel about her, how proud I am that I got her
God, I'm a daddy, I'm so glad that her mum didn't abort

Now you probably get this picture from my public persona
That I'm a pistol-packing drug-addict who bags on his momma, (coli)

But I wanna just take this time out to be perfectly honest
Cuz there's a lot of shyt I keep bottled that hurts deep inside o' my soul,
And just know that I grow colder the older I grow

This boulder on my shoulder gets heavy and harder to hold
And this load is like the weight of the world
And I think my neck is breaking should I just give up,
Or try to live up to these expectations?

Now look, I love my daughter more than life in itself,
But I got a wife that's determined to make my life livin'hell

But I handle it well, given the circumstances I'm dealt
So many chances, man, it's too bad, coulda had someone else
But the years that I've wasted are nothing to the tears that I've tasted

So here's what I'm facin':
3 felonies, 6 years of probation
I've went to jail for this woman, I've been to bat for this woman
I've taken bats to peoples backs, bent over backwards for this woman
Man, I shoulda seen it comin', what'd I stick my penis up in?

Woulda ripped the pre-nup up if I'd seen what she was fukkin'
But fukk it, it's over, there's no more reason to cry no more
I got my baby, baby the only lady that I adore, Hailie

So sayonara, try tomorra, nice to know ya
My baby's travelled back to the arms of her rightful owner

And suddenly it seems that my shoulder blades have just shifted
It's like the greatest gift you can get
The weight has been lifted

Now it don't feel like the world's on my shoulders
Everyone's leanin' on me
Cuz my baby knows that her daddy's a soldier
Nothin' can take her from me

[Outro - Spoken]
Woo!
I told you I can't sing.
Oh well, I tried
Hailie, 'member when I said
If you ever need anything, daddy will be right there?
Well guess what?
Daddy's here.
And I ain't goin'nowhere baby
I love you! (kiss)


yeah EM has 0 suject matter......... AN NO ONE CAN RELATE TO THIS...


"do yall listen to music or just skim throught it"

 

[Data]

shut up Thaceo

 

[California]

That nikka Game could've gotten on that...The daughter requirement is met, he's held his own on soulful tracks featuring Esco (see Letter To The King, Why You Hate The Game), and he'd bring certain elements to the track that other contenders can't

 

[jaguar paw]

fukk it.
