The Nas Thread

[Don Dada]

Discuss Nas albums, legacy, features, songs, his busniss and more. You think he will make more albums?

What if this was on Stillmatic.




Came from the streets we the voice of the youth
America's nightmare was given a mic booth
Nike boots, leathers and jean, jewelry, cribs and cars
Rappers not dependin' on your nine to five jobs
Entertainment, this is our world, this is our language
Different regions speakin' east and west gang shyt
You got your positive shyt like, Common Sense
But even he had drama with the Don Mega Cube
Acknowledge the words get twisted at times it's rules
What you think is different from the block whenever we feud
fukk your pictures and your plaques, your tours and autographs
Don't trust bytches and nikkas who tell you your all of that
'Cause, they'll be in your enemies face, sayin' it's safe
To run in your release party sprayin' the place
Or catch you when you least on point, puttin' your keys in the door
Behind you with your seeds in KB Toys store
Maybe the words get disrespectful now your nikkas check you
"You 'gon let that nikka play you, you know we 'gon rep you"
Next mornin' every news channel and front page
Headlines another rapper was slayed, this is Star Wars

NAS RETURNS TO QUEENSBRIDGE PROJECTS AHEAD OF 'ILLMATIC' 30TH ANNIVERSARY: 'HUMBLE ORIGINS'​

Not gonna lie.
NaS is my favorite Emcee of all time.
KiLLah Priest is my 2nd favorite Emcee.

I like them because i come from the same school of philosophical thought they incorporate into their rhymes.

For me Nas was floating around top 3 until that KD and Magic run. Then he was cemented as the undisputed GOAT.

I'm sure he'll be back even if it's not with Hit Boy. Seems like the key all along was for him to have 1 solid producer for his albums.

For the record

It Was Written > Illmatic

Nastradamus > I Am
