This song is so fire and nas floated on an R&B collab once again

Yeah, I came across it when somebody posted that remix with Mariah and Joe in this thread. Someone should make a mixtapes of his best R&B collabs.

The one he did with Jhene Aiko last year was fire too. I feel like hardly any of the younger guys considered lyrical could bless these type of records like this. Drake is the first that comes to mind, but he rarely raps on his R&B collabs.

Yea I remember this joint. He bodied it. I thought all u guys heard it. I think I even posted it in here.

Probably did. Either I skimmed and forgot about it, or maybe just based on the thumb nail I figured it was a throwaway.

This might be a real challenge for Nas fans:

But I remember a couple of years ago skimming tv and watching the end of a show where in the end credits they had a snippet of a Nas song I had never heard before or even heard anyone talk about.

I dont know if I mentioned it here in the thread. I've even forgotten the show (I think it was the Chi or a show similar to the Chi that was probably a mini series cause it looked like one of them hood shows ) but I vaguely remember trying to look up the credits and I think it was maybe a Nas and Anthony Hamilton song but a new one not Worlds An Addiction or anything?

Anyone know this?


Edit: Okay I found the track name and show...but the song is still hard to find.

It was indeed a Nas and Anthony Hamilton song called Down So Long and it was on a short ass running show on Fox called Shots Fired which was out in 2017 (and its nothing like the Chi, Im bugging lol)

I cant find any traces of this song anywhere on the internet other than a shazam page that says people have shazamed and a single cover with Anthony on it that says its from the show. The links on the page dont have the track even the apple one

Props to @DJRhude!! He announced, via his Twitter, that he was re-releasing his mixtape The Found Tapes with bonus unreleased tracks. Newly remastered too! After he dropped the mixtape, I contacted him and asked for the NO DJ versions and he put them out too. FACTS!! DJRHUDE was the first one on the internet to drop NO DJ/CDQ full versions of:

YOUR MOUTH GOR YOU IN IT
YOU DONT KNOW ME
SEEDS OF HEAVEN
TALES FROM THE HOOD

I’m dying to find out what the unreleased bonus tracks are. I wonder if they are from the Sony era. This is a big deal to me because I’m still waiting to get No Dj/CDQ versions of WHEN THUGS DIE, ENEMY TOMORROW and a few more from the era

Thoughts? @shawntitan
@jensyao @JustCKing @Ziggiy
Love it!!!
I had thought recently about reaching out to him myself, to see if he had anything left in the stash, that he hadn’t yet released. Great news, really appreciate all his contributions

^ cleaned it up a bit, but it's still a snippet. youtube didn't copyright tag it, so it's not in its system

I could've sworn I saw pictures of it on ig. Do you mean you want him to post it specifically?
I saw a picture of the engineer from the album post his.. I haven't seen Nas or Hit-Boy grammy at all. If you've seen it could you post it if you don't mind.
