HOW THE BEEF STARTED WITH JAYZ AND NAS Jay was trying to link up with Nas for some tracks on his first album, Nas ignored him JayZ sampled Nas' The world is yours’ for Dead Presidents Memphis Bleek (Jay's protege) started throwing jabs at Nas in the late 90s Jay dissed Nas during a performance at Summer Jam Nas- H To The OMO JayZ- Takeover Nas- Ether JayZ- Supa Ugly Nas- Last Real Nigga Alive They make up a few years later and release songs together There are a lot more details but you can just google the full thing
+mrm64 production on Represent will always be my favourite! Lyrically not the best, but that beat is bananas.. 2nd favourite can't be picked that shit is straight flawless and timeless
the mispronunciation of names is cringe worthy. the attempt to pronounce kelis made me stop the video right there. thanks for the effort but if your gonna continue to do hip hop facts type videoS, be a fan atleast.
Corrections 1 Its Marley Marl not “Mar” 2 Rakim is pronounced Ra' KIM not Rakeem 3 Its Akinyele (pronounced Ah kin nelly) not akinyell 4 Its Joe Fatal not Fatal 5 It's live (rhymes with hive) at the bbq not "live" at the bbq 6 It isn't 16 bars that Nas has on this song it's 26 bars 7 Jay Z and Nas publicly known rap beef didn’t begin the same year Biggie died (1997), it came out in the open in 2001, But it had been going on likely since Nas threw the first jab in 99. 8. Kelis is pronounced Kell leese not Kellis.
Andrew Paul Because people who don't know good music (Majority of people) value club bangers rather than skilled lyricism. That's why the West Coast dominated the Early 90s, and why people favor Jay over others and majority of people (who once again don't know anything about music) don't know anything about Canibus, Big L, Rakim, KRS-One etc.
Some of you didn't know this but Nas also dissed Eminem back in the early 2000s when Eminem decided to be a part of a beef between Jay-Z and Nas in 2001 it lasted about 7 or 8 years from 1997-2004 or 2005.
He was actually born in Brooklyn and moved to the Queensbridge projects in Queens at a young age. So he reps Queens because he grew up there, but was born in Brooklyn
You caught a bunch of mistakes lol. I'm wondering when he showed a picture of Fatal from the Outlawz was that the right Fatal? I'm going to check if that's the same fatal.
+CLAWZ CLAWZ Oh, you mean talking about all of his charity organizations, works in the black community, and his influence in regards to being one of the favorite rappers of more than a few of today's current hottest rappers? Yea...that would be dope.
Syncere Bethea dude, I know nas is still famous. but he is not as famous as he was. all the things you just said would go in the video I recommended. For example, dr dre after they were famous. After he made all those famous albums. he sponsored beats. even though dr dre is still very famous, he is not as famous as he was.
Wise Dmc yeah that's what I've heard, all the neighborhoods have been gentrified, Bronx and Manhattan too I guess idk actually I never been to NY myself Lol
OMG OMG PLEASE DO BIG L BIG L IS WHO MADE JAYZ NAS WAS SHOOK OF BIG L BIG L IS THE BEST RAPPER BIG L IS A FUCKING GENIUS JAYZ WAS JELLY OF BIG L PLS BIG L MY FREN
The best rapper ever to touch the mic.
The best rapper to ever touch the mic is Trinidad James... NO question..
J. Silva Capital STEEZ.
Capital Steez what? Lol
you said the best to touch the mic. in my personal opinion STEEZ is the GOAT.
steelo is dope but nowhere near nas
And everybody agrees Illmatic is the best album of all time you should've said that too
truuuuuuuu
Definitely
No its not.
+Mitchell Lawrence
what is then?
+50 percent There ain't one. And if there were .... This wouldn't be it.
Before I watch this, I just want to say that Nas deserves a 2 hour documentary of this. But anyway.....Popcorn!!!
CaDymuZik you should check out "Time Is Illmatic" a doc about illmatic.
He deserves a biopic
Time is illmatic. That’s what you all need
Take this L for "Rakeem"
Lmao
+niggalo smh and "Cormega." But mainly Rakim lol
Smh
nuhseer
rukeem
cermega
lol
+niggalo Lmaaaoo nigga said "Live @ the BarBQ" like it was a project's name
Shitting on people's name, it ain't hard to tell.
He don't excel
Nas is better than Jay Z
Let's make that sound more factual by saying "MORE LYRICAL" than Jay-Z.
no, he is better in every aspect, fuck jay z
FaKeKryniK Every aspect as far as??
teewhaay everything a rapper needs? do you need everything with a spoon?
FaKeKryniK You mean as far as just rapping??
HOW THE BEEF STARTED WITH JAYZ AND NAS
Jay was trying to link up with Nas for some tracks on his first album, Nas ignored him
JayZ sampled Nas' The world is yours’ for Dead Presidents
Memphis Bleek (Jay's protege) started throwing jabs at Nas in the late 90s
Jay dissed Nas during a performance at Summer Jam
Nas- H To The OMO
JayZ- Takeover
Nas- Ether
JayZ- Supa Ugly
Nas- Last Real Nigga Alive
They make up a few years later and release songs together
There are a lot more details but you can just google the full thing
Thanks
Prisual Jay Z's song Blueprint 2 also touches on issues concerning Nas so that should be on your list. You people need to do proper research.
Prisual I love you
I'm from Queens NY. I knew all this shit already, but for the sake authenticity and proper research, good job homie.
Jason King I was born on long Island N.Y but I was raised in Brooklyn homie.
He just mispronounces everybody name
EVERY DAMN TIME....lol... It's aggravating as hell but I can't front a lot of his research is pretty solid
"Marley Mar"
Ikr its Kelis and Aaaaamerie
he a white dude
Nas is hella slepted on. My friends and i listen 2 classic hip hop and outta all of em only 2 of us kno who Nasty Nas is
I respect that. Young dudes, even in NYC, don't appreciate the classics they was probably conceived to. Smfh
Teach the others about NaS. They could use some of his wisdom in their lives I think.
Honestly Nas was the best to ever do it in hip hop and his lyricism for his age then was wayyy ahead for his time
Illmatic changed my view on hip hop forever. Such a classic album. "Life's a B" "World is Yours" "NY State of Mind" can't pick a fav :'s
+mrm64 production on Represent will always be my favourite! Lyrically not the best, but that beat is bananas.. 2nd favourite can't be picked that shit is straight flawless and timeless
surprised he didn't say "Jazzy" instead of "Jay-Z"
Hahaha
If jay wasn’t a household name I’m sure that’s the only reason
This wasn't a before Nas was famous, it's a Nas biography. Still damn good but not titled correctly
+Jay Moor all he just did was recite what is already out there.
The greatest to ever do it.

Lmao facts!
"oolah dara"
+loktoppoppins lmaooooooo
+loktoppoppins RAKEEM!
nismo510 trust me, i just dont understand.
Rakim, Cormega, Kelis, Amerie... all names butchered.
JRPiff212 Straight butchered!!!
right lol dude said Live at the BBQ like nas LIVED there lol when it should be pronounced like when you here the word ALIVE
Shareeva Corey Yep, I'm sure if Nas lived at the BBQ he'd be much bigger.
Today we are going to talk about Nose
Ruh-keem, uh-kim-yell
you need to put some respek on these names when you're pronouncing them. I'm not going to say it no moe!
rolly moe
Omg i thought I was the only one thank you!!!!
yeah he violated lol
Nas is a legend.
I loved “Stillmatic “ kept it on repeat 🔂
one word to describe nas: GOAT
The Mute if your calling Nas gay don't talk about your Dad
One of the best rappers of all time. waiting forever for this one.
Corrections
1 Its Marley Marl not “Mar”
2 Rakim is pronounced Ra' KIM not Rakeem
3 Its Akinyele (pronounced Ah kin nelly) not akinyell
4 Its Joe Fatal not Fatal
5 It's live (rhymes with hive) at the bbq not "live" at the bbq
6 It isn't 16 bars that Nas has on this song it's 26 bars
7 Jay Z and Nas publicly known rap beef didn’t begin the same year Biggie died (1997), it came out in the open in 2001, But it had been going on likely since Nas threw the first jab in 99.
8. Kelis is pronounced Kell leese not Kellis.
Exactly!!
Erfbgu 2 well jay thru the first shot at nas on hard knock life in 98 but everything else👌🏾
The Akinyele one 😂😂
Thanx for your Service
Dude but cmon give him credit he had to say all that
Do Wu-Tang clan!!!!!
Yass
There's no place to hide when I step inside
+Roberto de l-a Bistriţa How much time do you have. That's going to be a Hour video. LOL
Hell yeah. I wanna see Wu- Tang & Mc Guru
yea good idea
Nas is the g.o.a.t PERIOD
Jay Z most overrated rapper of all time.
Nas most underrated rapper of all time.
Kyle Langford kayne is the most overrated
Kyle Langford hes multiplatnum.. how can you say hes jnder rated lol multimillion dollar life with world renoun not good enougb for ya? :p
Andrew Paul Because people who don't know good music (Majority of people) value club bangers rather than skilled lyricism. That's why the West Coast dominated the Early 90s, and why people favor Jay over others and majority of people (who once again don't know anything about music) don't know anything about Canibus, Big L, Rakim, KRS-One etc.
black thought, mf doom, k-rino, az, e-40, masta ace, Keith Murray are underrated imo
Kyle Langford that's real
Please do Mobb Deep
NAS can be described in one word... GOAT
The nanny goat😂
Nas still going hard, a divine leader
Also he's fucking up everyone's name badly.
YEESSSS. MY FAVORITE RAPPER!!!
Yah boyy!
Fam

Some of you didn't know this but Nas also dissed Eminem back in the early 2000s when Eminem decided to be a part of a beef between Jay-Z and Nas in 2001 it lasted about 7 or 8 years from 1997-2004 or 2005.
This dude just butchered damn near everyones name. But He said it like he just knew he was right. BTW Nas was born in Brooklyn

Illmatic is still one of the best albums ever made.
My dad knows him from New York When they were children
He was actually born in Brooklyn and moved to the Queensbridge projects in Queens at a young age. So he reps Queens because he grew up there, but was born in Brooklyn
The best Rap Artist ever to Bless the MiC 🎤
A true legend
Rakim pronounced Rah-Kim. You can't live at the BBQ darling..... Kelis pronounced Kah- Lease. Please do more research.
You caught a bunch of mistakes lol. I'm wondering when he showed a picture of Fatal from the Outlawz was that the right Fatal? I'm going to check if that's the same fatal.
Nope he put a picture of Hussein Fatal instead of Joe Fatal lol.
He also said he went platinum off of singles Street Dreams and Head over Heels which wasn't a Nas single, that was Allure's song.
Honey he was all the way off on a lot. I appreciate his effort though :]
hey now ;]
"if you cant beat them, own them" Savage

NicScarfo Yeah I had to double check if Rakim was alive on Wikipedia because this has been a rough month for celebrities, lol
+CalPaxin the name ''Rakim'' is pronounced ''Rah-Keem'' in arabic so no he didn't.
Black A
See that's my point: ''anymore''. That is how you formally pronounce it. So the dude didn't butcher the name.
shame, the GOAT doesnt get any views.
