Does Black Republican hold up today?

[Swiffness!]

Underrated if anything. That Godfather Part 2 sample is insane and the way they chopped it up, fleshed it out with a piano and sine wave, and put it over that dope-ass drum pattern? Chef's kiss.

Will agree that Success is by far the better song tho. No I.D, Hov, and Nas all snapped on that

Still a really good song. I remember being a tiny bit disappointed at first when it dropped but it’s aged pretty well.

Hip hop is dead is a underrated album

 

[Breezy_Kilroy]

When Juelz said he was flyer than a ostrich I turned that joint smooth off

I'm sure Wayne verse was fire but Santana messed it up for me

 

[Nah Son]

Nas Jay collabs in general have been mostly disappointing over the years

Even this one was only good to me but not great

Success is the only one I can think of that was fire

 

[Nah Son]

And yeah the intro was awkward as hell lmao

Jay tryin his best to hype the shit up while Nas sounding like he aint even wanna be there

„What up homie“

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Then they used the sample from The Godfather too


They were really swinging for the fences here

 

[Don Dada]

Analyze this is the best track they made.

 

[OGDirtyD]

Def was not bumpin that shit down here much when it dropped. That shit was for the eastcoast heads at the time.

All Jay & Nas collabs have been somewhat disappointing to me. None of them have been bad. I just had higher expectations for a collab from these 2 GOATS.
