OUT NOW Nas & DJ Premier - Light-Years

Added to Calendar: 12-12-25

I like the flow on “Pause tapes” but Honestly, for me this shit don’t pick up until “Nasty, Esco Nasir”…

These basic ass beats, no layers. Nas carried this shit..
 
I like 3rd childhood!

“Grew up around heroin addicts before that crack shit
Crack was light compared to what the smack did
Y'all played with marbles, we played with dope fiend needles we found
Injected worms when the rain brought 'em up from the ground”


~Nas~

Songs I fuck with:

Pause Tapes
Nasty, Esco Nasir
Shine Together
3rd Childhood

I see what they tried to do on the joint with AZ but it wasn’t executed thoroughly because the beat was trash!

Hopefully this was Nas way of telling niggas to be careful what they ask for. These beats sabotaged the album.

I’m not saying Hit Boy did anything for Nas’ career, but he definitely brung Nas up to date as far as production is concerned…







 
I see the album getting shitted on on Twitter, but even ABW ain't fuckin with it?? :yikes1:
 
Is it time for Preemo to hang it up?

I’m sending this to him

I only spot checked a few songs and they was aight.

The Nas and AZ joint is flames.

That said, I'll come back with my review once I listen from beginning to end.

That said this shit was never gonna meet my expectations
 
NY State of Mine 3 and Junkie beats need to be shot and buried. The lyrics of course are God tier but the beats are not it

First listen but I'll have to run it back one more time before I can give a real review.

I'm fucking with it tho
 
This album is 20+ years too late imo. I've never really been excited for a Nas / Premo collab and this album confirms why. I just wish I would've been wrong. I'll let it marinate over the weekend to give it a chance, but as of now this ain't it (especially after listening to Conway's album).

I anticipate that with each subsequent listen, your opinion will decrease at a steady rate.
:hahaha:

I doubt it. That's why I made my post about the hype. I lowered my hype for the record months ago because this isn't the 90's so I'm not going to expect that 90's feel.

For me my first listen I really fucked with the album. Is it going to be on the levels of Illmatic or It Was Written of course not
