ayo fukk that nikka cole.

the artist shared how he was essentially “hurt” by Kelis’ lengthy list of accusations against Nas, who recently shared his side of his custody battle and failed marriage with the singer.


“It feels weird because I f**k with Nas, but I just have to be honest. I came up seeing too much f**ked-up shyt for that to be acceptable,” he said. “I don’t care who it is. I don’t f**k with people abusing women, and I don’t f**k with people not taking care of their kids.”

N.Y. State of Mind
Multi-platinum hip hop artist Nas has a global reputation as one of the greatest emcees and lyricists in his contemporary art form. But what about within the history–and canon–of American poetry? Learn alongside host Elisa New as Nas, music executive Steve Stoute, scholar Salamishah Tillet, and a chorus of hip hop heads, rappers, and fans break down the breakbeats and rhymes–and explore the searing vision–of Nas’s iconic track “N.Y. State of Mind.” In this episode, New and guests herald the transformation of America’s long tradition of urban verse by hip hop artists, and they affirm Nas as the standard bearer for contemporary poetry of the street.

I see how him and Ben Horowitz clicked.
I didn't expect for Ben to be so in tuned
with dudes pen lol His perspective of the song
throughout was very on point.

I have a theory. The song below was originally the Swizz joint previewed at the Life Is Good listening party. I think he ended up giving the beat to Wayne for C5. This was the description of the song from the listening party described it as reminiscent of "Special Delivery", well the Wayne song, "Uproar" definitely sounds like "Special Delivery" and it is produced by Swizz:



I know Swizz previewed the supposed leftover Nas joint last year at the battle, but that beat doesn't sound like what was described at Nas's listening session. It has the chorus that was described, but I think Wayne's "Uproar" was initially the song Nas and Swizz performed at the Life Is Good listening session.

Mods can we replace the pic in the OP. The OP is stinking up the thread and it isn't even funny. In fact, its disgusting.

"This album’s greatest gift may be redemption. Not predominantly for West, but specifically, and most importantly, for his collaboration with Nas. It’s the prerogative of Esco stans and creatures of the moment to disagree, but any objective fan with respectable rap taste is aware that, on Nasir, Esco sounded more geriatric than illmatic. There’s good news, though: On Poison’s “Echo,” the Half-Man Half-Amazing sidesteps a deciduous fate and rises like a Phoenix Sun from the free-throw line. No bulls**t––Queensbridge’s King backstrokes through waves of melodic instrumentation for three––that’s right, three––cinematic verses that will scrunch faces and inspire palm emojis with brilliance like “Been an observatory of murder stories since I was a shorty.” It trumps every song on Nasir. Credited to Mr. Dean, the focus can stray away from divorce court and custody blame games and return to the legacy of a scribe who once bragged about socking Jesus and breathing with a sniper’s breathe."
