After every 2/3 or so plays of the album, I have a favourite track. At the moment it's Accident Murderers and Daughters.

:what:

I refuse to believe Nas with a live band is wack.

I saw Talib Kweli perform gutter rainbows with a drummer, keyboardist and something else random like a saxaphonist or something and it was one of the sickest concerts I've ever been to. The asian keyboardist was off the fukking chain.

I'm not saying live bands are wack per se, but when some tattoed emo bytch with an electric guitar is raping Life's a bytch to the point where you only recognise it when the hook kicks in, you know something is wrong.

The only track I don't really like is "Summer on Smash." Though if we had to choose which of the first two singles he'd put on the actual copy, I'd personally choose "Nasty" over "The Don" (it's still dope though).

"Black Bond" is mad dope, but it doesn't fit the overall theme of the album, so I could understand why he made it a deluxe bonus track. "Roses" is dope too, but it kind of nullifies "Bye Baby", so I understand why it is a bonus track. "Where's the Love" and "Trust", however, I don't get. Either of them could have replaced "Summer on Smash" and made the album that much better.

:wow:

I pull a string on the lamp that shyt darkens
I'm living in an elegant Moroccan apartment
Proletarian chicks sparking
Convo weak and I don't really care for her jargon
Balcony is windy
Looking at the stars and
I be in the Henny, woozy in the head, wobbling
Gucci pillow on the bed, while she giving noggin
Listening and tripping off the Maxwell album
Thinking I should leave to a European island
Bristol and Spain, bring a book about styling
Dinner serenaded with a violin
But shorty not qualified to be took to that kind of outing
Gotta be a fly bytch to hang around that fly shyt
Fine dining Olive Garden, naw bytch Nas is
In the real deal, food spots on the constant
Pick the right wine, a Chianti to wash it
Lifestyle encompasses top-notch watches
Rolexes anonymous shyt I'm copping
Ask her has she been around duffle bags full of that fukk you cash
Get off the jet with me in heels
I'll cup your ass
Looking in my eyes
Saying Nas you're one lucky b*stard
Grip your clutch, you'll get finger fukked in the passenger
I hit the dutch, blow smoke out, music and laughter
See us in the coupe flying past you

The visuals :wow:
