Official Nas Thread

[mr.africa]

Still not convinced.

Anyways, this track came on randomly today.

I heard the beat and I ain't know what to write
First line should it be about the hoes or the ice?
Fo-fo's or Black Christ? Both flows'd be nice
Rap about big paper or the black man plight
At the studio console, asked my man to the right
What this verse sound like, should I freestyle or write?
He said, "Nas what the fans want is Illmatic still"
Looked at the pad and pen, fell, and jotted what I feel
Been like twelve years since a nikka first signed
Now I'm a free agent and I'm thinkin it's time
to build my very own Motown
Cause rappers be deprived, of executive 9 to 5's
And it hurts to see these companies be stealin the life
And I love to give my blood sweat and tears to the mic
So y'all copped the LP's and y'all fiends got dealt
I'm Jesse Jackson on the balcony when King got killed
I survived the livest nikkaz around
Last longer than more than half of you clowns
Look, I used to cook before I had the game took
Either way my change came like Sam Cooke

Ok, so y'all think Def Jam is gonna do with their Nas unreleased vault? Nas is as hot as he can be these last few years. I'm thinking they need to get some type of Nas compilation out, like their version of a Lost Tapes. Of course, with this, timing would be key. Never knew why they never did a concert album though. Curious.

I always really wanted Nas to do an MTV Unplugged album

Yoooo...what a freaking performance!
I think my favorite part was the ill transition from Get Down to the Stillmatic intro @ 51:00

The original version of Scarface feat. Nas In Between Us that i found in my collectionScarface made Nas rewrite his verse because Nas verse was going at Jay and he was cool with Jay who was also featured on the album on Guess Who's Back


I was leading the race and as a child pops blew his weed in my face
Results mixing ether with base, I been fukked over, left for dead , dissed & forgotten
Yo they hope that I be gone by now stiff & rotten
Try to piss on me, spit on me, shyt on my grave, talk about me laugh behind my back
But in my face yall some well wishing friendly acting envy hiding snakes
Hope your bytch fix your grub with her period blood
It takes more than what you got to kill me
I'm on the war path eternal external, a fifty sack fills me
The one you think hates you loves you, notices it's always the ones closet that will try to slug you
Art of deception oh glorious lord, I got stories to make your hairs stand, secrets between me and a dead man
Who died knowing we plan to cut another life short, slid a enemy throat, and cut his fukking swipe off
Place it in his grill, hatred is my world it is my mirror, blessings is the child who see the ghetto more clearer
For federal indictments, suprerme court subpenas, who was tight as we was?
You let shyt come between us

GREATEST OF ALL TIME brehs

Damn, can't wait to check this out. I'm in awe of how much unreleased music Mobb Deep and Nas have out there. Ghost used to be up there too, but he slowed down after the Pretty Toney album.
