Yea no edits. That was crazy.

Youtube algorithm hurts pages when the take a week break. They took a month off. Numbers will go up especially when they start doing skits again
Those breaks they had at the beginning really fck views up

their snoop discography talk was bs too, cause he got fire albums post DS

Could the problem with Nas be that he makes bad songs on good beats?

Nas is a rapper of substance...he doesn't dumb down his lyrics to double his dollars...he makes conceptual songs and albums, he doesn't follow trends

Nas has made great songs since 03 and great albums (LIG, KD, KD2)

I've honestly not checked much for Nas much since 03.

The critique of his beat selection is on his previous work. It hasn't been mentioned as much since Stillmatic. But it was a widely held opinion that he picked bad beats.

I'm saying that maybe the beats weren't that bad, but the songs were.

Maybe another rapper could've done something with the beats for Big Girl or Dr. Knockboot.

his shyt w/ hit-boy has given him more broader (modern) appeal...but wouldn't say it revived his career, cause his career ain't need no reviving
I mean Nas's sales are practically non existant compared to 10 years ago

What you see with the sales is that they really tanked once he left Def Jam and started releasing on Mass Appeal

Nas discography - Wikipedia

From 300k to 50k for his indy stuff

What Hit-boy did is revive his career culturally, even though he's selling less
