Who’s better than him at this point?
And I’m not talking technically. He’s already got that. That’s basic information.
He’s everybody’s favorite rapper’s favorite rapper.
People 40 years old grew UP on Nas.
The younger generation doing they thing now don’t really fk with or respect the emcees that came before them.
Ask em about Nas tho. It’s BIG time respect.
Ask Drake, Kendrick, Lupe, J Cole.
He’s to them what Rakim, BDK, KRS and Slick was to us.
Ask these young a** drill rappers. They like “Oh s**t. Yeah I fk wit Nas.”
Sht is just so dope to me.
Mark my words. There’s gonna be a moment where Jay-Z is gonna admit that Nas is the better emcee. He ain’t gonna say Nas is better than BIG but he’s gonna admit that Nas is the greatest rapper alive.
Can’t wait. Queens baby.

I think it had to do more with Nas’ penchant for picking mediocre beats on a bunch of his mid career records. We can argue that. It’s valid. But I’m not letting somebody slide as far as the quality of Nas’ rhymes. The rhymes are NEVER the problem. And I think the dude brought it up like RIGHT before Nas blew the spot and dropped 3 albums all incredibly produced. “Shrugs”

I think his only real miss was the double album SD and it sucked. His boy Quan or whatever dropped the ball for real.
It comes down to who’s steering him. We all love the idea of a Primo album but Primo ain’t fresh no more. You want DJ Premier to spot Nas in 2023 while he’s this hot? Let’s stick with Hit. Keep running the ball like the NY Jets right now.
17 tracks on KD3 tho?
I think he’s coming back to fix that and redeem it all. With no guest features would be almost too perfect.
We will wait and see.

We will wait and see. Under normal circumstances I would NEVER admit to the Premier part, but this is a Nas event so yeah, you right Premiers not 10 for 10 anymore, but easily 5/10 and that could still potentially be the greatest f**king album of all time But soo many things has to align for that scenario to happen just right Do as you say and stick w Hit, he knows what hes doin

Chip on his shoulder Nas is as good as it gets as far as rap music goes.
Basically Jimi on the guitar.

And I love DJ Premier.
But Nas fans gotta get off that for a minute and let what he’s doing with Hit breath.
I think so much heat is coming so fast people are having a hard time just sitting back and digesting all of this from someone like Nas.

IMO, there’s no debating Nas’s lyrical skills on just about every level (content, rhyme schemes, story telling, emotion, etc). For me, all of his misses are on the production side. He’s dropped a lot of content that I just don’t care for the production. I’m not saying it’s trash, just not my cup of tea. For me, as a listener, the beat has to be at least decent to keep my attention and keep me interested. Sure, I can appreciate the lyrical side even on a sub par beat, but there’s absolutely no reply value there for me. AZ is another example of this and I feel he’s extremely underrated as a lyricist by most people because his production misses have been even more numerous.
Buck, you bring up an interesting point about a Preem and Nas album. I’d agree, Preemo may be a bit “stale” (I don’t necessarily like saying that, but for the sake of this argument), but even if that’s the case, his s**t always gets your head nodding. So that said, that project, maybe some “yeah, they’re there” beats would let Nas shine even more. I don’t know. I think it would be interesting to hear present day Nas over some Preemo beats. I think it could really let his lyrics take front and center stage.

Hitboy is giving him perfect beats tho.
He’s not overcrowding Nas at all but the beats are real complex. He got the drums. He got the beat changes. Scratches. It’s all there. He did what Primo SHOULD have done.

He did what Primo SHOULD have done. I definitely wouldn’t agree with that. I think Hit Boy is giving him more consistency on the production side, but I don’t really feel his style overall. Again, not trash talking or hating, just my personal preference. Whether I like the production or not, I do appreciate their chemistry. Hit Boy and Nas are clearly hitting it off and it’s dope to see a multi-decade vet dropping content at this type of clip.

I’m never gonna say I don’t wanna hear Nas over Primo tho.
Just let Nas and Hit cook right now.
Honestly I wasn’t feeling Hitboy’s production at first either. By KD2 I was like damn this is dope.
Then I was like aww sht he killing it when I heard Magic.
