Smmfh.
I remember having debates in high school, college, barbershop etc about Nas.
We listened to him in our area.
This argument is tired.

 

[Lion_Heart]

Are we talking about popularity? Sales? Or both?

 

[5 Grand]

He released Stillmatic, Lost Tapes and God's Son in a 12 month span.

So 2001/02

 

[God_Body]

*reported*

 

[Sky Davis]

Nas was #1 for like 7 months in 2002

That’s it

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Another hating ass thread but to answer the question no one absolutely no one was fucking w 1996 Nas

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Oh 1994 Nas too

So that’s at least 2 years

Another hating ass thread but to answer the question no one absolutely no one was fucking w 1996 Nas

Nas wasn't the number 1 rapper in 1996. Stop it B.

 

[Lion_Heart]

Oh 1994 Nas too

So that’s at least 2 years

Neither was he in 1994.

 

[A-List]

Yo, these local jokers with the same shyt....lol...thinking a region holds more weight than the country or the world. With that said, I'll say for a couple months in mid summer/early fall 96

 

[Sky Davis]

Niggas get so bent out of shape for Nas lol

Goldie gonna have a burning N on his lawn later on tonight

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Nas wasn't the number 1 rapper in 1996. Stop it B.

We talking sales or MC Wise

Cause who was touching Nas pen in 96?

We are talking about popularity.

Very few was touching Nas' pen *pause* (Prodigy was giving him a run for his money) in 1996 but that was Pac's year and it's not even close.

 

[God_Body]

Popularity? Jay never was neither. Close thread.

 

[God_Body]

Jay fans always trying find that one up. Weirdos. Try to add up everything but bars to try to put Jay at one. He’s not. Nas is the GOAT, let this shit go.

 

[5th Letter]

He released Stillmatic, Lost Tapes and God's Son in a 12 month span.

So 2001/02

Correct answer

 

[5th Letter]

Nas had the sales, the hits and the critical acclaim and he had the moments. 2002 Nas was number 1

 

[Shawn JAY-Z Carter]

Nah

 

[Natural Born Sinners]

He released Stillmatic, Lost Tapes and God's Son in a 12 month span.

So 2001/02

That Nas run was crazy. Snatched the crown from Jay while he was at it too.
