Your reaction when you heard Nas's Hate Me Now?

[L $ C]

one of the most important songs in Nas discography

he has endless classic records, but a hype hard club banger? not many , and none as good as this ..its a classic

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

First glimpse of "angry Nas" a character he would revisit on stillmatic.

It should have had some people on notice but they still fronted like his fire was out. They learned tho.

 

[Rozay Oro]

Nas got a lot nerve showing his chest and shyt but never in shape no homo lol

That shyt would help his image

 

[Trace]

I think I must have been 8 when I first heard this song and Nas for the first time.

 

[Heavy_Handz]

My honest opinion was that I thought he definitely sold out when he made that shyt. That was a clear commercial crossover attempt with its corny interpolation of this shyt

Couldn’t stand it when it dropped. I really liked the album I Am… though. He more than made up for it on that album

 

[Edub]

Thought it was dope, puffy dancin all in the video ruined it a bit for me tho….

 

[Big Boss]

This was when Puff was really untouchable

 

[Whips-n-Chains]

My thought was "Puffy attempts to ruin another song with his mere presence"

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

I don’t know if he premiered it, or if it was just the same night it had released

But funk master flex probably played it for like 45 minutes straight without ever getting past the first first verse and kept bringing it back

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

Thought it sucked... but i fell off the bandwagon after It was Written.

 

[Piff Perkins]

Somebody has to have recorded the Flex premier right?

 

[The Guru]

Puffy badlibs hurt the song something fierce.

 

[Canon]

"Nas is Like" to "Hate me now" boy was on fire especially with those leaks

 

[DOSDUMUNI]

I was like 10 years old I remember it playing on MTV and I would copy the poses and mannerisms in the video like I was a badass lmao

 

[prophecypro]

Track was everywhere in 99
