Never liked this song. I love Nas but ppl overrate IWW…it’s classic but not flawless classic like illmatic. There’s more than one skipable song On it.

It was the 90s. nikkas was trying too hard to sound tough.

Reminds me of the shook ones video. If you cut the audio off and look at it both of them look a little sus because they was trying so hard to look tough. With that said Rip P.

Song was fire..

Chorus is zesty when u think back on it tho lol.

What stand out to me about the Intro was that it was long asf and seemed like they were talking over each other lol "get paid " (dre)

Idk why that part stands out to me.

“nikkaz just up in here hittin some of this chronic nikka”
:lolbron:

One of the best comments on one of the best Coli threads of all time.

To be honest when I bought this album as a kid, I didn't think much of the Dre collab. I was a big fan of Dre but the collab went over my head.

Later I was like damn, two big tymers.

Then time passes and The Coli showed it for what it was and I can never hear it the same.

I don't like too much R'n'B in hip hop, unless it's Blue Raspberry from Wu.

This joint was apocalyptic. Didn't fit the album nicely.

I guess lesson learned. Cause Dre did better after.

love it was written (not as much as illmatic obviously) but whoever mixed this should be shot

why is Nas so low in the mix? maybe dre really WAS smoking with nas in the beginning

dr dre is renowned for his mixing so i dunno. maybe nas wanted it that way
