Go to the 2:30 mark, hear it from Ra himself.

Edit: won't paste the link. Just google "Rakim dislikes UBR"...bout halfway down the page is a vid interview w him on the subject. Interview was w hiphopDx.

yeah.. but he's wrong about Nas saying his kids names in the song. As far as his govt name... its been credited on every song he ever made. "W. Griffin"

He just being a dyck..

7/13/12-7/13/14 - That's right it's been 2 years since "Life Is Good", one of NaS's most personal albums. So did it hold up? I still love "Where's the Love" so much:



"BUT I SAVED YA SOME, ROLE THAT BLUNNNNNNNNTTTTT!!!", lol

Listened to LIG for the first time in a while today. Truly glorious :lawd: :ahh:

Hudson River, rent a boat, t-shirt with a dinner coat
A vintage Fila like I'm the ghost of Domencio
On any day getting throwed in a tinted vehicle
Like a old BK gangsta, but I'm the CEO

Of Nasty Nas Enterprise, mastermind, made men
My success symbolizes loyalty, great friends
Dedication, hard work, routine builds character
In a world full of snakes, rats and scavengers

Never make choices out of desperation, I think through it
Break through walls like Pink Floyd
And drink fluids of all kind of alcohol, y'all
Vineyards in France, yachts out in Cannes
:blessed::wow::whew:


nas was spitting hard the entire album!!!

Listening to the GAWDLY LIG right now:

To call them fake today is hate, real nikkas extinct
Pac left me inside a rap world with nikkas that wink
At other rappers, undercover nikkas spit every way
Won't be surprised if all their rides have federal plates
Let alone their wardrobes and Studio 4 flow
It was real when I appeared, it would've been some jaws broke
Nas, my real name, stage name, same thing
How could you let these lames claim king? I'm so ashamed, man
I light a L for Vernon, for nikkas who would burn in Hell
For Vernon; 10th Street, 12th Street, Nightmare on Elm Street
Pimps creep, delve deep inside the editorials
Of the ghetto queens, kings, stories true
Who possesses the testicular fortitude
To blow away myths that's a hindrance to all of you
You blame your own shortcomings on sex and race
The mafia, homosexuals and all the Jews
It's hogwash point of views, stereotypical
Anti-Semitic like the foul words Gibson spewed
And it's pathetic, I don't get the credit I deserve
That's why I hate doing interviews
But I don't sweat it, study long, study raw
My man Dion said "Nas over-think the songs he writing"
I'm not a wack performer standing near a corny hype man
I got the Donism in me, I'm here to enlighten
