Bruh....I'm sure there was a gang of more productive shyt to do than to drop this post. SD is str8 basura. You Know My Style and Where Yall At should have been the sound for that album. I was dissapointed when it came out.

Where y'all At was never for SD, it was for HHID

"In my ashtray, smoke signals from the haze
I stick my finger through it, the ring of smoke broke
That symbolize weak guys, pop the strong link off
The infrastructure caves in, amazin'
I ain't have to read The Art of War to slay men"

After his escapade with his bad chicks, Nas lazily sits in a couch smoking, while musing that the cloud of smoke broken compares to his single-handed victory against Jay-Z and Roc-A-Fella. Nas is saying slyly that the entire crew was in fact "weak" and that by popping the lone "strong link off" in Jay-Z that the entire label caved in, leading to Jay-Z's retirement that year in 04 and the break up of the entire Roc-A-Fella label. Nas foresaw all of this in early 2001, when, BEFORE Ether, he threatened to "Rip the FREEWAY, shoot threw MEMPHIS with Money bags/ stop in Philly order cheese steaks and eat BEANS fast/ Bring it back up top and remove the FAKE King of New York". Jay-Z did not heed his warning and instead chose to battle. Nas muses how amazing it was to bring down an entire label and that it proved so easy he didn't even need to read the art of war to prepare for slaughter.

War & Nazareth Savage are the only redeemable things about that album...garbage.

 

[NatiboyB]

this should be an appreciation thread I had love for this double disc. Save for a few songs the album was an 8/10.

 

[JayBaldacci]

nas was spitting on this joint. it's probably a top 4 nas album lyrically. but the production was just so bland.

 

[Roxx the King]

porduction was a lil boring. i agree as one disc it wouldve been stunning. but still one of my personal favorite from nas. shyt i like all nas's albums.

 

[Soymuscle Mike]

Great great album, Salaam Remi did his thing and Nas was beasting.

Only 2 or 3 tracks that aren't great, and those tracks are still dope

Great read, c/s fully. TS.

I remember listening to the cd like , nas going crazy saying whatever the fukk he wants!!! He usually does say whatever he wants, but this was the first LP where I felt like he pushed it further than ever. Until Untitled came out

If your still sleeping on SD you should go clean your ears and replay it. Granted some songs should of been removed, but not many. Overall the album is definitely better than I am or Nastradamus imo, which says a whole lot.

 

[blazn101]

Was a great read and i agree with you
this was grown man rap
maybe that is why i couldn't get into it at the time
but i still wish it had be on album.

 

[neomerge]

I gotta co-sign the OP. This cd is excellent and probably his most slept on album in his catalog. It's without a doubt better than HHID.

 

[Mandizi]

I haven't listened to SD in years.

One of two weakest albums along with Nastradamus.

It had some good songs tho.

Streets Disciple > Untitled > Nastradamus > Hip Hop is Dead

Untitled is damn near classic


SD is probably the most albums i've heard from a dope artist.
shyt might not be straight wack, but it's so damn boring.

Why doesn't anybody EVER mention "Reason" when talking about the best tracks on Street's Disciple I dont' think i ever seen anybody on the-coli/sohh recognize this track and acknowledge it for the soulful dopeness that it is, shyt boggles my mind
