Lol ain't you the one who if he had the chance would ask Nas if he like lemonade?

Nah that was me. Hell I got the idea from this issue lol
Stuck? I was musing and said it was just something I wondered. Its not like I said it over and over again like it was a burning wish to know lol
I remember you asking that shyt a few times. And we all perplexed
I honestly don’t remember saying it more than once. I remember it became a Nas Thread joke that we could all laugh along with but it wasn’t some burning obsession lol
Soul In Stereo ranked King’s Disease number 5 on the best albums of 2020 list (Act 2 was number 1)
5. Nas, King’s Disease

In the world of rap, it’s No Country for Middle-Aged Men. Hip-hop has always been a young man’s game, so in today’s fickle landscape it has to be frustrating for rap architects like Nas to find his way in this strange, new world. The past decade wasn’t so kind to Nasir – while I still say his Life is Good album is one of the best releases of the past decade (still standing as the last time I gave out a five-star review), later albums like Nasir and Lost Tapes II were met with more tepid reactions. That all changed with King’s Disease, equal parts return to lyrical form while, thanks to producer Hit-Boy, upgrading his instrumentals for a new era. Esco is sharp as ever, from his impeccable storytelling, reuniting with his old crew The Firm, and even forging strong new partnerships with younger artists like Anderson Paak. King’s Disease is a needed career win and affirmation that kings stay kings.

...Blunt Ashes
is such a chilling song of our rich entertainers but deprived history
Kill his brother Roger Troutman
then he kill himself that's the end of Zapp
I still believe that "Blunt Ashes" inspired TVOne's Unsung series. The whole premise of that show is "Blunt Ashes". The whole first season of the show is "Blunt Ashes". If I'm not mistaken, Phyllis Hyman, Donny Hathaway, and Florence Ballard were all on Season 1.
