exactly bro

Will you be doing other albums?

Love y'all!

@@samrose3205 probably not, after all, Nas is signed with Mass Appeal.

REVOLUTIONARY

2KGrind09 word. His lyricism and imagery is fierce

Facts. My first time in New York was just 2 weeks ago and it's exactly as Nas described it to be. Exactly as I pictured it be. Nas made me love NYC and I plan to live there someday. One Love 💯

@Marvin Bennett WuTang as well... kool G rap is another, of course Rakim is it! Itz so many....but Nas it was so different but yet vivid. Perfect gumbo

@Marvin Bennett I live @ E 183rd & the grand concourse.☺

Falcon 84 Rick Ruben too

No doubt! Premo alone is on three Hip Hop classic debut albums. Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt and Ready to Die. That must feel amazing

J Dilla

@Technews Madlib, 9th Wonder, Rami Salaam...

@Technews gza aint a producer. He one of the goat MCs tho. I agree with the rest of what youre saying. Dilla stands lonely at the top when it comes to beats and I absolutely consider all of these legends to be incredible producers.

You just made me Time Travel with the bass boos @Verbfomarizona

Hell yeah! I share your exact same story, brutha! I did the exact same!

Verbfromarizona Hip Hop/Boom Bap/Beats/FOR SALE...WORD. It was like hearing something that was a theological breakdown of that concrete jungle Nas found his way out of. So descriptive...subjective AND objective at the same time. I’m an old nerdy white dude, but Nas conveyed and constructed life on those blocks so schematically and precisely...that one can almost smell the air and feel the tension. In my top 3 of all time.

Gotta throw Q Tip in there too. “One Love” was bananas not to mention his own work with Tribe plus his work on Mobb Deep’s The Infamous (“Gove Up The Goods”, Temperature’s Rising”, Drink Away The Pain”). Also his remix of Nas’s “The World Is Yours”.

Yup. That album was insane

"I thought you was gonna play w my frog"😂.....I love that movie

Damn, your handle brought back some memories!

Word to mother

Masego Flames that line is crazy considering he named his daughter Destiny

Indeed it is galore!

I laugh when people say "x new rapper is a lyricist", especially when they say they're in the vein of Nas. It's such bullshit.

April 19 sadly remind me of guru death though

That sound was deep when I first heard it in the early eighties,hip hop culture forever 2019 an beyond

What software you use??

Jacoby Smith I use Ableton

So Do I

koji sam ja,baj d vej,iz svog dzepa platio,da bero jelinicu,jer smo puni ko brod

@@skoveche2k Hahaha Mamić u elementu

With all due respect just out of curiosity. Who did you think was doing the hook?

@@sinematic06 I thought it was just some random dude Nas was running with. Never looked into it

Joey Brickz oh ok have you ever seen the video?

The T La Rock joint was my absolute favorite song from age 8. Then the Nas joint hit when I was 17... Man, i grew up in an amazing era...

tompparaideri no they can't

they never could get back on this level i believe but if they tapped into that mindset they could make something 90s classic tier

808 I know Premier is still just as good as he was in 94, So is Q-Tip just listen to the latest Tribe album. Nas has made killer songs lately, Pete could rise to the occasion. They shouldn’t replicate illmatic but i’m pretty sure it would be one of the best hip-hop albums ever made. Wu-Tang Clan could do the same to if RZA would go back to the grimey sound and every member was really on board.

JL BREMER worrrrrrrrrd Sept2nd son !

Exactly what I was thinking. funny how people say nothing for years talking about collaborations glowingly then suddenly they're hard-done by...

Well I'm a lyrical artists who have been looking for a excellent producer for years. I want to bring back boom bap and storytelling...seriously..if you're serious..reach out to me

@@martinstaton1240 same here, let's work. I'm really looking to make a few dope tracks. Subscribe to my channel when you get a chance and check out the beat I have called Jezebel and let me know if you are interested in dropping a story to that

martin staton Where can I hear your stuff brother?

Well Cappah...i have nothing up. Because of the doubt I carried from others saying that I'm not good. Because I love storytelling and the ones that judged me love this hip hop of nowadays. I'm 34 ... I love 90s and late 80s hip hop..sad thing is they are my age..but I will give you something that I'm writing..hope you like this. "Surface surrounded by culture vultures its astounding How one can make music feel hounded Im pounding my fist in disbelief that this very thing exists The this is "mockery" made sovereignty until its bliss Exit out well men and women Children prevail Targeted cause markets in open chose whose to fail So fall back dont fall on All of my people stay strong Cause nowadays rights are switched and called wrongs We do sing the same song But cling unto Difference of view Yours be the money Mines be the true Only a few get it while whispers towards the ignorance Becomes amplified and sampled as a mimic "Who are you kidding" as one responded My response back was "we are creating monsters" I pondered Tooken for granted on this daily planet Respect I do demand it Victory in health form not weak and famined And you can cannit with" the think I can't" I only build maturity not foolery within every rank So no thanks towards your handouts I truly know what im about God put me on earth to be a standout" Get back with me and you tell me what you think

Prolific Beatz where you located?
