People really asking how this went X amount of pages without context. Push is talking about '96 Nas, which we all know wasn't on television in military jackets. This was a mich more flashy Nas and was highly influential on style. He was rapping more so avout the subjects these OG's would've been more into.

Even then, the whole military aesthetic was still huge in Hip Hop from Pac to Wu to Bone. That particular look wasn't associated with a style of rap. It was just fashion until No Limit made it part of their brand.

Then you had actual artists from Virginia publicly stating Nas as one if their favorite rappers.

That's not to say Push wasn't "shamed for liking Nas", it just comes off confusing.

This is why me and @Awesome Wells been saying the nikka Pusha is lying. And @Awesome Wells is far from a Nas stan. Cause it ain't about that.

It was actually posted a few pages back. nikkas think I'm defending Nas but I'm moreso calling Pusha a liar cause of the details of his story. Lol.

Just saw it.

Yea now I’m doubling down even more, yall are young nggas. You and @Awesome Wells Like gtfoh

Bc that’s just bizarre to harp on such an innocuous detail. :what:It gives you away bc when you actually live thru something you will misremember small details to truthful events. You aren’t remembering every line item like a research project.

However when you’re a youngin and you learn it thru Wikipedia, of course you’re a fukking nerd about every detail. ‘Um actually Ready to Die dropped on February 19th, not 20th’ :troll:

This here.

The thing is, a lot of these dudes on here talk about sh*t they weren't there for. '96 Nas wasn't rockin' no damn army jackets. LOL!! He was at his flashiest from '96-'98. He said underground heads got mad at him for rocking mad jewels and suits in '96. The whole situation with B.I.G. throwing a couple of lines at him, was about how he changed to being more flashy at that time.

That's just Hip Hop history. But the weirdos on here are such losers, you can't speak on facts and history without them getting in their feelings and calling you a stan. This is just everyday sh*t that we all knew back then. It ain't rocket science.

You're not. HAHA!

We know you hate anything Nas-related.

What I just posted was just facts, my guy. You know that.
Yall stuck on this him not wearing a jacket in 1996. If i see u with a hole in your shirt the first time i met u. Im gonna always see you as a dude that a hole in his shirt. So if that convo took place in 96 Pusha OG was still thinking about 1994

Very simple
