Are you that way with music in general?
No not at all just when I turned it on I got halfway through and was bored with Kd2-to be fair I was driving and it wasn’t doing much for me att, I forgot to return.

I listen as close to release as I can and do finish multiple times in sequence, settings and shuffles. Nasir itself was fine, I just happened to replay one day and found a few other tracks besides the intro.

Yea revisited Lost Tapes 2 for the first time in awhile and imo it’s easily better than KD1. Feels like a compilation album for real but the production was great and Nas was killing mist the verses. Def a proper sequel to the OG.

The 718

He didn't say a single thing bad in that video. Just said he's competitive, thinks he's better than everybody and Nas winning motivated him. Y'all are fukking selective hearing drama queens when it comes to Freddie Gibbs :pachaha:

Never even mentioned the word snub either, which is why I despise clickbait.

I just listened to the Jungle Smoke Champs interview. Jungle sounds abrasive as fukk. I could see him getting in to a lot of shyt. I think I’ve only ever heard him on interviews along side Nas and I never realized how much Nas keeps him in line. like when they are together he seems to be able to see when Jungle is kind talking wild and he brings it back to keep things respectful. On his own I could see Jungle rubbing people the wrong way.

Lost tapes 2, KD1 and KD2 are all fire. Nasir was solid to me. I think Kanye and Nas should have locked in for a year or 2 and it would have been masterful.
Nasir was aight, but felt more like a sampler than an actual project. Nas and Kanye could have been a great match but Kanye clearly fumbled the ball by rushing. If they took time to really create a full project it probably would have been fire. But honestly I ain’t even mad cause I think without Nasir we probably would never had got Kings Disease. I feel in my gut like Nasir opened up the possibility for Hit-Boy to convince Nas to lock in for a whole project.
