Amazing track, even more so when you know that it was produced by a 17-year-old who had won a contest to produce a song for Nas. This and Deja Vu should have been on an album!

nas said it right in still matic. 'last real nigga alive". people think a lyricist is ll in complex words and punchlines. to a degree the cleverness in how you deliver words is a display of lyrical ability but the word lyrical means emotionally connected or attached to life. Nas is the only lyricist left that actually defines what lyrical means. This is why he said hip hop is dead. because lyrics died long before he said it. One love 1606 Certified!!!

Nas + C Sick sampling Ultra Nate makes this track legendary. Two polar worlds reflected in the emcee and the beat. Then comes the intro....and a tale of the continuously examined dichotomy which he re-examines throughout his music- Being in between worlds. The lenses continue to flick: the Queens perspective vs the Manhattan perspective and then approaches it globally and then universally.

Because it’s who you are and where your going to choose to stay...it’s almost like you will feel misplaced despite of the Riches and luxurious. So my question is, ‘Is it really worth it?’ NAS 🤴😎❤️
