Strong end to the album huh? That's exactly how it's gon be..end up smooth but real strong...if u move the don up, like before or after SOS, it would flow much better IMO...and Nas could potentially end the album with 8-9 straight 4.5/5 mics songs

Off snippets? (bare in mind it's difficult)

Stay
Bye Baby
Queens Story
Cherry Wine
Roses (I don't know, just sounds dope to me)


Songs so far?

Locomotive (You have to hear the whole song)
Daughters (It's a classic record to me, never been done before)
Cherry Wine (Sounds just as good as the snippet)
Reach out (Nas best lyrical joint since I don't know... so many quoteables)
The Don (I'm West Indian, and love supercat so it ranks higher for me)
Accident Murderers (This should have been a concept song, with one party murdering the other by accident and hearing both sides of the story... as is it's pretty meh. Still doper than most of his last few albums joints)
Nasty (Nas is absolutely blacking out, but these are the beats that Salaam Remi gets dissed for...lol I'd probably like it better acapella.. or on the AM beat)

Couple observations here :
Why everybody praising 40 & not salaam for the bye baby beat? Is salaam bound to be biased against?? I also remember many people were shyttin on accident murderer beat at first coz it was labeled a salaam beat..and no more when it was corrected as a no Id production...smh

I hope you're right regarding bye baby because I actually thought it sounded weak in the snippet. The beat didn't seem too great and Nas' flow seemed a little sloppy (blasphemy, I know).

Thats real talk....album ends so smooth.

It would have been

You wouldnt understand
Back When
Stay
Cherry Wine
Bye Baby

I almost want to switch Cherry Wine as the last record cause the way he let Amy shine like that... felt like a tribute. :to:


"Everythings good, and everythings fine...Pour a lil cherry wine"
*sax playing in the background*
"Life is Good"
*add back in Amy's vocals*
"Life is Good"
*end of album*


Then u got Roses and Where's the Love at the end of the bonuses?...Got damn

:dead:
