Official Nas Thread

[Ukbrotha]

I was there lastnight at the O2.

It was incredible. Shame Method man wasnt there he would have torn the roof off because the crowd were clamouring for him.

RZA did great doing the intros. Wu played the classics and did them well. I've seen Nas quite a few times so I knew what to expect but I havent seen him since the Kings disease run so it was interesting to see how he incorporated those tracks in. 30 definitely rang off hard.

The illmatic tracks always get a good reception as did Made you look, Get Down and if I ruled the world.

Nas closed the show with the first verse of One mic with Wu on stage with him which was a nice touch. but he held down his set solo and did great.

pissed i couldn't go in the end. was it a Wu heavy fan base? i always worry with Wu concerts here in UK/ Europe that lot of the fans are the types who love Wu but don't really fukk with other hip hop greats

and was there any special guest? i remember the promos mentioning this

So when I arrived I felt the energy of a Wu heavy crowd but during the concert and the ovation Nas received when he came through for Verbal intercourse and his set there was definitely a lot of Nas fans too.

No other guests.

Ghostface did give a shout of to Burna boy but he didnt come on stage or perform.

Yeah Burna and Daniel Kaluuya were in the crowd

 

[Ziggiy]

Yeah Burna and Daniel Kaluuya were in the crowd

Daniel Kaluuya always comes off as a solid brother. No surprise he’s a Nas/Wu fan

 

[HNIC973]

Wu also joined Nas at the Camden afterparty

It's ugly outside, it's muggy, it's money outside
105 Fahrenheit, thunderous skies
The clouds shape a clown face above where you reside
Under his eye, a teardrop got the ugliest cry

Pacino life, G a roll, casino dice
At the Mirage, Vegas strip, neon lights
Gamblers, puffin' cigars, couples and stars
Flashin' cameras, dealers, shufflin' cards

Yo, release what's in me
Besides the Henny, it's eyes that's seen plenty
Fiends get skinny as if Queens was a Craig Jenny
Instead of diet plans, it's crack, 200 grams
I pump a G-pack, peepin' for where the D's at

Got me thinking what's some of your favorite bars Nas starts songs with? besides obvious ones like NYSOM Take it in Blood Nas is Like ect

No Ideas Original is Nas top verse intro..

If nikkas could look inside my mind, you'll find
Where bodies are buried, first look past the hotties who dimes
Go to the center, enter with caution, past the brain cell graveyard
Where weed's responsible for memory loss
Let's witness, the horrific, the stench'll make you nauseous
See what I seen every day I live with this torture

Just sticking to Magic I like the opening lines for Hollywood Gangster and Dedication a lot.

40-16 as well Nas was rhyming like a unsigned artist throughout Magic
