been said it's been all downhill since 01.
Nah. That Jay Electronica album don’t count that’s not Hov album.Bro. THIS is what I’m saying. nikkas talkin bout this and that. Talkin bout Jay. The same nikka who just sold the same amount of albums as Nas’ Lost Tapes 2. nikkas need to get over the fact that Nas and Jay ain’t really being fukked wit heavy on the streets like that no more. Both these nikkas ain’t relevant like that. Outside of shyt that don’t got nothing to do with music.

We sung “I Can” at my 5th grade graduation.Nas stans are in their feelings in this thread
Anyway, I'm 28 and is a Nas fan and can name more than three songs of his... However I think I'm the exception, not the norm. Nas is my most listened to artist on spotify I was in the 5th Grade when "I Can" dropped and I loved that song as a kid.
A lot of younger rappers are influenced by 50 though, Pop Smoke was one of them.
Young ppl thinking that 50 is better than Nas isn't as far fetched as the Coli may think.
190M views went Platinum from 2016...
On Don Q and A-Boogie street single that got played in NYC area...
Single with Uncle Murda, Cas, 69 at 60M views...
On Young M.A. Ouuu remix...
On Tory Lanez album cut...
Nas at a point in his career that he make music for his core fans. He lost his reverence in the streets and with the youth a long long time ago.
50 has stayed relevant through Power, social media, is more of an OG figure for the new generation that can be tapped for features and advice, and his hits still get streamed heavily and was the soundtrack to the childhood of the 25 and under demographic, a lot of his songs have also been flipped in the new generation.
Wtf do jay z have to do with this shyt lol
I’m from Detroit and every time jay come here it’s a big deal. Nas not so much. Jay come to do little ceaser arena by himself while Nas doin the same venues as a joe Budden podcast.
Yes it more older cats at a Hov concert but it be tons of younger cats there. Jay is the exception brother
That’s bullshyt. U forgot about The Carters? Which didn’t do shyt either? Ok.Nah. That Jay Electronica album don’t count that’s not Hov album.
Last time Jay had a proper solo album cycle was 4:44 and he did numbers.
Story of OJ did numbers. Family Feud was getting remixed a lot. That album had nikkas talking about a lot of shyt it opened up conversations in the culture. The videos went crazy. On the lead up he had Drug Dealers Anonymous and I Got The Keys as features.
Him and Nas not in the same boat.
if jay drop a album Friday it’s doing atleast 200k
Nas is always at Chene Park Theater when he comes to Detroit. capacity about 7,000...
NmWhoever Preme son was talking to is a bozo.
Just because 50 had GRODT doesn’t mean he had more hits than Ja.
I’m glad some younger dudes is giving Ja his props tho.
I can post a bunch of Nas features too fam fukk is u sayin bro?
u forgot about THIS?? In which he performed at the Grammy’s and this is just this year.
Or this?
Wtf are talking about lol
That’s my point he only do theaters. chene is where old acts or up & coming acts go to perform in Detroit.
I’m talking about solo album. Jay last solo album was 4:44. 4:44 was critically acclaimed and commercially successful.That’s bullshyt. U forgot about The Carters? Which didn’t do shyt either? Ok.
