Can’t lie this is kind of true

How? Cuz of The Story Of OJ? The funniest thing about that record is that it was everything Jay has been saying his whole career, and the song was not for black people in general--it was for drug dealers and low-key big money cats who, instead of using dirty money with good intentions, waste it at Magic City or on dumb shyt that depreciates in value. Everything else is either about his family or the things he generally talks about.

Nah. I like this Nasir album alot but Jay is the better artist. Nas is great with his lyrics but he just works around/with the production and just does his thing on the beats. Jay just seems to have more artistic vision for his projects as a whole and thinks through everything.

if anything, it widened in Jay's favor.

this new Nas album will be pretty forgettable in terms of his career...its just a good project nothing more nothing less.
theres no classic songs on here. Adam & Eve is quality but Nas got plenty of these.

Jay was spitting way better on 4:44 than Nas on Nasir.

not their tightest albums technically..both sound clumsy on their latest releases (Jay did 4:44 with a cold though)
Nas has certain ways of approaching the beat no matter the beat and it clashes..Hov played around a little more.

it is what is it is.

I've noticed that Nas stans are the most insecure stans in all of hip-hop. Everything Nas does they have to compare him to Hov.

I wonder why.


Probably because jigga fans are obsessed with rewriting history with false narratives(just like jay is). I'd think the nobs fans would be more annoyed by that more than any other group
