OUT NOW Nas - Nasir Album Thread

[Elzo69Renaissance]

But this I ll say I think whoever mastered this shit slowed down the tempo of the album...shit just seems slower than it should be

 

[Sony Montana]

3.75/5

Works for me

 

[Loch121]

Niggas wanna hear jazz loops over 4 beat drum patterns with them 90s snares so bad

shit so do I,but I still like this album and there are boom bap elements

the intro is hard as shit.

One reason I'm frustrated with my own music in a way

I realize that ppl don't know what they want which makes it even harder to know what ppl want.

sidenote...fuck ppl

I do agree with this. That’s my only gripe so far

[BobOblah]

Lol at this coming from Mass Appeal

 

[Goldie]

The album's trash. Bout to add a poll to the thread.

 

[BobOblah]

Album worth the price of admission just off the first 2 songs.

 

[Word....Life]

I deliberately avoided listening to any YouTube videos or bs links AND this thread all day yesterday just to make sure that once this album dropped and I listened to it I wouldn’t be swayed by opinions...I’m listening to it now and I like some shit and I don’t like some shit...I expected more but I was also prepared for it to be waaay worse...I’ll give it a full days listen before I say it’s fire or trash but reality is it may turn out to be trash on fire...I really don’t know yet smh



Now wit that said....I’m fucking tired of these confusing ass albums yo...it’s taking too long for me to decide if they’re good or not...I remember when you could let an album ride and off 1st listen you KNEW if tha shit was a banger...niggaz out here doing full on equations to determine if they fuckin’ wit’ 20 mins of music or not...I blame Kanye for this artsy fartsy shit

Agreed all these dudes are expert producers now critiquing tempo and snaps and whatever the fuck, not just enjoying it for what it is

 

[Loch121]

I do,but I also have to keep in mind that an artist is really nothing w/out the ppl

You could be the illest ever,but if you can't get a somewhat large amount of ppl to agree,you're well ......you're me

but anyway,fuck my music and my issues.This Nas shit fire to me

 

[Preach2Teach]

Album sounds better to me today, still need to give it time before I give my review.

 

[Old Man Cain]

5 songs I fuck with heavy 2 throw aways.

Once you listen to it to for real it grows on you. The beats are ehhhh to good but two or three stink face beats would've made this shit better.

 

[nex gin]

“Never sold a record for the beat, it's my verses they purchase
Without production, I'm worthless but I'm more than the surface
Want me to sound like every song on the Top 40
I'm not for you, you not for me, you bore me”

 

[Word....Life]

Second play and first off track one wtf wrong wit Nas flow?? I heard it tha first listen but I thought I was bugging from my morning wake and bake... Nigga out here riding tha beat like Cormega and Talib Kweli smh...I blame Kanye smh

 

[Goldie]

Nas aint slick with those bars. Nigga the beat is damn near as important as the lyrics. You have a trash ear for beats, get an a&r in the fuckin room already.

Nobody is askin this nigga to rap over trap beats/top40 beats. Get premo/havoc/pete rock etc in the studio and stop fuckin around.


4 outta 7 songs are either avg or trash.

 

[Chicity]

We live! Tidal finally got off they ass b

Bout to walk my dog and see what space Nas and Ye was in

 

[Loch121]

Homey: Ay Dogg, let me holla at'cha man
Snoop: Wuz up home?
Homey: Word is on the streets, your beats gone be delicate
Since Dre did shake the spea's out, man
Snoop: Delicate? Beats?
So that's what makes me now?
Man, I don't give a fuck about no beat

 

[Word....Life]

Ion like Nas flow on tha 1st 3 tracks...summin off...I blame this shit being created in fucking Wyoming smh

No its not. i mean its universally accepted as truth so i can see why you say it but foh.. the lyrics is always the main course... unless you are a fast food rapper..
