They both did their things...they did them. You love Nas for painting pictures with words and just saying shyt that sounds dope...you got that. You love Jay-Z for his wordplay and entendres and his prestige/coolness on the mic, you got that. Idk why yall have to make it a competition...but I will partake, lol. l think it's a preference thing, off the first few listens I prefer Jay-Z's verse only because I am a wordplay, double/triple meaning type of fan at this point in my hip hop fandom...and even beyond that he was saying some hard shyt. But even saying that its madd close, it's a 51% to 49% thing, Nas was dope on here...I could probably end up liking his verse more than Jay-z's the more I listen.

The video itself is kind of ass tho, madd underwhelming and boring, it actually makes the song feel more blah than it is.

my sentiments exactly. I think Nas had the hardest bar in the whole song as well as the weakest bar (fukk that lawnmower bar lol) while hov was killing it with the wordplay but lackadaisical with the delivery/flow (if you wannna say thats his cool laid back flow then whatever lol i can see it sounding lazy to some)

Song is MUCH better than the actual video.


They both ripped it but Nas got the standout verse with the cryptocurrency line. You can tell he’s SUPER hyped off that shyt :russ:




So with this joint, Black Republican, Success and I Do It For Hip Hop i’m convinced Nas and Jay could lock in and actually make a really dope collab album if they so desired
Not really their track record is mid

Stylistic opposites and it always feels forced and overly grandiose

Everywhere...You never there.
Shyt was mid . Both kinda mailed it in . Trying too hard to appear cool and nonchalant . The energy and vibe just isn’t there and never really has been there with them . They just don’t mesh well at all .

If Nas don’t fukkin stop playing and give us that AZ collab!!!! :damn:



Keep doin this dumb shyt . And Nas flow still sounds off . :patrice:

Bunch of over critiquing in here...

All the bullshyt that comes out daily now and this trash?


Yall see the names and one section just take sides or just dismiss Nas and Jay as a whole just to be a get wit..

Some of the names I see doing it in here is shocking. This why they could never do a joint project. Yall respect trash rappers and the repetitive shyt, but heaven forbid two legends make a record together and it be a solid song

Yall really some lames

That was light but still fire, lol. Salute to all my fellow IF'ers...I made my window so small now (20 hours fasting, 4 hour eat window) that I'm basically doing the OMAD diet now. shyt is actually amazing for muscle gain, believe it or not.

No you’re just a biased Nas stan that worships everything he releases. This isn’t a good song.

Jim would murder Nas and Jay on this in 2021

Crazy ain’t it

Lazy generic verses these nikkas wrote in 5 minutes :russ:

That’s laughable to say lol at Jim being able to ever think of a line as good as ‘You killed Christ and create another religion, unexpectedly’
