I am a BIG time fan of both of these artists. And I don't understand the hate for either one to be honest.
When Jay drops an album, I know that I am going get (usually) solid wordplay, double meanings, and subliminals . But the main thing is that theme of progress and achievement. Some people look at it as bragging (and it probably is), but that appeals to me.
When Nas drops I expect some hits and misses. And you always gotta cross your fingers when it comes to production. But every album has those select verses that just stops you dead in your tracks and makes you realize why he really is the best rapper in the purest sense of the word. He's the only rapper that I would ever listen to despite the beat. He's that good.
Basically they are both living legends and we should just appreciate the fact that they still care enough to make great hip hop music.
