Official Nas Thread

You liked The Cross?

I'd much rather listen to Braveheart Party a million times before The Cross.

 

[Nostalgic]

As time passes Magic, KD 2 and KD 3 might go higher on my list. Those project need to withstand the test of time.

KD 1 will always be low on my list. The middle of that album really hurts that album.

Yall feel free to add your list.

I actually like the Cross though I DO prefer 9th Wonder’s remix over the OG. Its actually the ONLY beat from Gods Stepson that I think is superior to the OG.

Nas snapped on that last verse plus I think its one of his illest hooks. The Cross is an example of Nas taking a beat others couldn’t make “work” making it something above average.

You buggin about Braveheart Party. That song is 100% ass cheeks. The best thing that ever happened to Nas discography is Mary J Blige demanding that song be scrapped from existence.

Welp we gonna have to agree to disagree.

I didn't like The Cross at all.
(I never bothered to listen to Gods Stepson, never will)

Braveheart Party to me was that nice lil "Filler" track between The Flyest and Rule.

I've never understood the hate Braveheart Party and Oochie Wally gets.

Edit: Well, I can understand the hate Ochie Wally gets, Jay gave people the greenlight to hate that song.

GS that album didn't really hold me.

I didn't The Cross, Warriors Song, Hey Nas, Book Of Rhymes, Thugz Mansion ( I know I catch hate for that)

Loved Zone Out, Made You Look, Last Real Nygga Alive, I Can

I might need to go back and listen to it again but still that album didn't hold me.

I was with u until u said

I have no strong feelings towards The Cross but Book of Rhymes is my shyt!

What songs in particular in the middle of the album, replace me, 27 summers, all bad and till the war is won?

 

[HNIC973]

I'm going to be respectful as possible Nas & Swizz songs 3 of em could take the top spots for worst he ever made. Braveheart Party Summer on Smash no business on LIG, G.O.D S.O.N is fukking horrible the hook is terrible beat . Especially when you compare it to p*ssy kills & thugz mirror

I hated lil Durks verse on TTW,

27 Summer is cool.

**But to have three songs dedicated to women back to back to back really slowed that album down

The album kicks right back into gear once The Definition comes on.

*YES, I understand the original concept of KD1 was that it was supposed to be a Valentine's Day ep the reason why it has so many songs dedicated to women.

The Cross is my shyt.

I carry the cross, if Virgin Mary had an abortion
I'd still be carried in the chariot by stampeding horses
Had to bring it back to New York
I'm happy that the streets is back in New York
For you rappers, I carry the cross

The imagery in that song.

 

[u mad son?]

I was at the o2 show prior to this after party

Seeing Nas, Ghost & Rae on stage spitting bars together was one of those top 5 life moments that will be ingrained into my head forever.

The entire show was fukking unreal, I'd be happy if I never went to another show again after this.

New Hit-Boy album Surf or Drown 2 out

 

[HNIC973]

Something special about seeing icons being fans of each other. This is the hip hop shyt I grew up loving
