What is this joint?


Web series I created, wrote, directed and starred in

Link to season 1 and first half of season 2

Watch Black on Both Sides on Seeka TV

Synopsis

Anansi Moor looks like the poster child for a post-racial America. He is intelligent, witty, and well-spoken—and just black enough to fill a diversity quota without being threatening. Yet behind his carefully curated song and dance is a game that grows ever more dangerous as the quest for justice drives tactics that will either free the caged bird—or scorch its wings.

Re-visited some songs on Distant Relatives and will not tolerate disrespect of "Promised Land". That song and "Dispear" are my most played songs on that album. Whole album felt like "One Mic"/"What Goes Around" Nas meets "Welcome To Jamrock" Damian.

That nas 3 run album is dope if you think about it. Untitled, Distant Relatives and Life is good.

Am i the ONLY one who wants to see Nas do a Tiny Desk concert?

Hell i’d take a reunion with him and Damien doijg a few Distant Relatives joints

I actually want him to do a small venue for the songs he NEVER does in shows. Now knowing Nas he probably doesn't remember the lyrics like that but a playlist like:

Silent Murder
We Will Survive
Street Dreams Remix
You're Da Man
Book of Rhymes
Drunk By Myself
Amongst Kings
Testify :lolbron:
STAY :ahh:
Trust
Etc

These kinda joints. Tiny Desk would be a good venue for this. Will never ever happen tho :mjcry:

I've been listening to "Victory" for days now, and I already listened to it twice today. Nas' verse was perfect. It had everything you could want from him. He took what would normally be a generic radio-friendly "I am a champion" song and made it special.

Someone else would have said something about being a fighter like Ali or Rocky and had some motivational advice about never giving up. But Nas went above that and showed you what a champion looked like. :wow:
