He grew with a lot of music playing at home so its pretty obvious he would have alot of those music talents getting honed subconsciously. Of course all this would been meaningless if he didnt have the talent in the first place.

This is a little too much for me too digest, but I get the overall point. Basically, he verbalizes what we already know; Nas is doing a whole lot more with his rhyme schemes than most if not all rappers.
He really is a born natural at this thing we call rapping.

my bad on callin ya bruh
Man I wish that Nas "cared" about being mainstream and what not cause he could use Summer on Smash and/or You Wouldn't Understand as singles and carry this album until late in the year.
bye baby is one of the most popular/universal songs on the album. i know females who dont fukk with nas like that who love the song and love the album.so that goes against your "being mainstream" talk.
summer on smash would have had to drop in june..summers over in a month! & you wouldnt understand is not a single in 2012.
Everyone knows traditional singles in hip hop are street single(not an official single)/club single/heartfelt single/deep single/uptempo single.
more than likely the last single will be cherry wine or the mary j joint which i can live with.

Just read an interview with Blue & Exile on HipHop DX, Nas name brought up a few times in the piece but this bit gave me joke. Re: Life is Good:
DX: Blu, what still surprises you about Hip Hop?
Blu: That Nas is still the illest, bro. That shyt is mad surprising. After all these years; after Rick Ross, Drake, Jay Electronica, all these nikkas - that [Life Is Good] came out and he's still the illest. That's the most surprising shyt ever.
DX: Word up. Are you guys going to get into the studio together? Have you guys been talking?
Blu: Hell nah. I seen that nikka in the club and he didn't even want to see me and shyt. I was like, "Nas, I'll eat you up right now." He was like, "Dude..." Talked to his security. Escorted me out of the area and shyt.
DX: [Laughs] Are you serious?
Blu: Yeah! I was like, "Nas, I'll eat you up right now. Let's get in the studio." He was like [to security], "Get this dude out of here." So, I'm gonna work on how I approach him next time. [Laughs]

album gets better with every listen 
what a story Blu.Nas always getting into awkward situations in clubs.
You got Grace Jones licking drinks off his arms.
Snipes calling him a scientist and wanting to slap box with the Gawd
Nore throwing a flowerpot at him.
