The most underrated line in this whole classic is........ "Like a tree fallin' in the middle of the forest Nobody heard your shit drop, it's really garbage...."
dave reached out to nas he said in an interview that he really looks at him like a mentor/big brother so he didnt mind him rappin most of the track cuz he knows he's cold.
That's dope Mallam Slim. It should mean something though Like WOLF: Worldwide Originator of Lyrical Finesse Or something better that's just what I got of the top but should be proprietary to Nas so it's not easy for wack rappers to steal. Wish we could copyright it also and give it to him. This man has given us so much...maybe I'm taking it to far..idk?!?!
This the kind of song that makes you feel you just wanna close your eyes and teleport to an unknown word where there’s peace,tranquility and without all the BS that’s happening all over the world

If You Never Gave Up On Nas Even When They Said TakeOver Would End His Career and You Had His Back Even Before He Dropped The Ether Like This Comment.... How Many Hard Body Nas Fans Here
@BigSocksProduction Lol Mumble Rumble Junk still wining and playing on y'all Radio Stations. Real Rap never left, it just evolve into something my Mom would say " Take out that fucking stupid music in my head " 😂
This comment is so stupid I wanna smack the fuvk outta you. Never mind that Nas gave Dave the track. Once the internet gets a hold of a narrative, y’all will run that shit into the ground
IMO,it’s him and Eminem that are neck to neck for that 🐐 status.I have a lot of respect for Rakim,B.I.G.,Jada,Jay-Z,Luda,Pun,Sean P. and etc. but at the end of the day,the King of NY hip-hop is Esco!He’s getting older now but he’s still sticking to that same blueprint from “Illmatic” and doesn’t ever have to feel pressured about staying relevant with the younger gen. by changing his style and flow but showing to the youngins that he’s the Michael Jordan of rap,period!! He keeps evolving and showing no signs of hitting a plateau where he can’t continue anymore.Feel blessed knowing that we have someone like him behind the mic if you’re a true fan of hip-hop!!
I'm on 3 I think. Hip hop actually got me into reading books. Music can only drop so much knowledge till you need to buy a book directly on the topics. Then hip hop gets even better.
“Your comfort is my concern. You could burn it, if you feel it” Man , I love this hip hop shit...the imagery is real on this , I see esco talking to east on passing the legendary torch
Part of being a Nas fan is feeling like the man is living some part of his life on your behalf through such kind of his music. I am mourning my mama. And this is the only therapy that is working
Everybody saying they glad Nas back, like where the hell y’all been is the question. Esco never fell off, y’all must of been sleep 🤦🏿♂️ Lost Tapes pure heat
Nas is spittin' Geico commercials, Lol, the best to ever do it. # G.O.A.T # fallin tree in the forest, no body heard your shi$, it was really garbage!! straight fire. respect Dave East
Damn who knew Nas and Dave was gonna compliment each other like that, but shyt Nas always gotta take it to a whole other dimension, teach you and still be wanting all smoke 🚬at the same damn time
"Like a tree falling in the middle of the forest, nobody heard your shit drop it's really garbage". This line right here is the reason why I get writer's block, it's the reason why I'm afraid of dropping an album, I don't want it to go unannounced.
Take it easy Nas is coming is fucking heat. I understand what you mean tho. It all depends where you are in life. Every song has a purpose and meaning and something u can relate to with Esco
Yo big bro...!? Im from the ice pick era Lightskinned terror... Thought i could Sell this dope Until my life get betta... Hieroglyphs tatted on us So its hard to miss us... #DaveTheFuture!!!
“How come rappers you claimin' I got my style from, Never pile one-tenth of my mint, No diss to them” One of my favorite lines, Nas vocab is just different
30 years later NAS still spitting mad bars
It's not even funny how effortless his flow is on this song.
He’s just a different breed fam
25 but yeah
For real man he been fuking shit up for soooo long it’s almost like crazy to think it’s been that long
TREEGO TOP TOP live at the BBQ came out in 1991 so is almost 30
A friendship is built over time and trust too, but trust is a contract that constantly needs to be renewed for peace and solitude..🤙
Nas is the actual goat
Nas humble on the low..he know ain't too many fuckin with him..
NAS, When this man dies, they gon realize he was and always the greatest, he's just humble.
Absolutely
I’m glad people recognize that about him, he is not running around calling himself the greatest or finessing people to put him on top of their list
Factssss
Well said he is the best fullstop! He influenced so many, the greatest of all time Godson all he need is 1 mic! And us to listen!
@AlFa N TumaNi they will learn
"Like a tree fallin in the middle of the forest, nobody heard your shit yourl really garbage." So fresh
That’s my favorite part I swear bro
Nas said Im that ancient astronaut from the Dogon tribe!! The Dogon are Ancient African people that have a profound knowledge of the solar system.
GTD784 I’m about to look into that
Law of one, they contacted sirian entities form the Sirius galaxy
Yep the Dogon are the only people who could see the dark star and all the constellations with their necked eye
Dope shit feel electro static

“Like a tree falling in the middle of the forest, nobody heard your shit drop, it’s really garbage “
The most underrated line in this whole classic is........
"Like a tree fallin' in the middle of the forest
Nobody heard your shit drop, it's really garbage...."
East knew Nas was on a whole other level on this shit. He almost just let him have the entire track. 🐐🐐
There's nothing Dave could do to top that tbh Esco was in his bag on this
I think this was originally a nasty track that he gave to Dave
Exactly!
Nas just showed why he is the greatest out of New York
dave reached out to nas he said in an interview that he really looks at him like a mentor/big brother so he didnt mind him rappin most of the track cuz he knows he's cold.
This the kind of music I look out for. Hip hop ain't dead, far from it....you just gotta know where to find it. This is it.
I been saying the same thing for the longest yo. Some cats just too lazy to dig.
I been sayin exactly what you just said word for word for years bro
Facts. Be tr yn tell ppl 🔥🔥
Du Souljah if you have to look for the good than that just shows how trash rap is
Hip Hop is dead. Youre listening to the one who signed the autopsy report.
Survival is gonna be the hardest album this year.
Robert Pimentel think youngboy nba already got that title
Hell yea Robert! I agree 💯💯💯💯
Wrizzle Papi it was alright young boy makes dope songs tho
Chris Durst 💯 yup Dave east got next
Without question.
Nas flow is flawless. 🔥🔥

This sound like Dave went back in time to rap with Nas in the 90s
💯🎯🎯🎯🎯that feeling
Aayyyeeee
He would fit right in the Wu gang with those flows

That's dope Mallam Slim. It should mean something though Like
WOLF: Worldwide Originator of Lyrical Finesse

Word

I was 12 and the year was 1994 and in 2019 the dude is still feeding my ears
Bee Tee no shit homie!!! This nigga gets mad smarter with his lyrics!

Nas sounded like a Godfather here fr! 🔥🔥🔥
This song feels more like Nas ft Dave East. Dave let the legend control most of the track much respect
It was Nas, s track,Dave East heard it and ask the OG for it, and he gave it to him.
I was saying he let the og get his shyt off
Somebody else recognized that...: wow "the meek will..."
Dave said nas picked one of his songs to spit on
Also said he wished he couldve changed his verse after hearing nas' verse
I think Nas gave this song to Dave East
Nas is the greatest M.C. EVER to grace a microphone!!!!!PERIOD..........
Nathan Howell imo its K RINO. Listen to his album The Maven.
hearing Nas voice gives me life... Don of NY.
hearing Nas on this beat is so nostalgic and that beat is too smooth. Definitely fell in love on the first listen.
Deeyana Valentina Exactly!!!
💯🔥
Where do I find females like you?
It's so nostalgic it brings tears to my eyes
Listening to East rapping with his Big Bro Nas.. is like vintage NY Hip Hop music to the ears🔥
Agreed
@f wambc it sound's like old Nas most everything to me sounds good coming out of NY. I rather hear this then the bs that's considered hot coming out now.. Vado been doing his thing to....
KooL KeitH it really is... hip-hop lives... 💣
@f wam yes it does bitch
they def flowing but this ain't what I want personally from East x Nas
Nas gave me chills with this verse🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nas cannot be compared to anyone on any list, he is on his Lane alone educating
Foreignn3dv yea nas got alot of influence and even cadence from rakim but nas might just be alittle better, probably could flip
@Foreignn3dv Absolutely Not
@Foreignn3dv He really is, would go Rakims evolution than his son. Nas musical background makes him a bit different with the soulful vibes.
I honestly think nipsey hussle would've been far greater if he was still here...
RIP NIP HUSSLE THA GREAT!!
Nas was Flowinggggg on this 1🔥🔥
He always does right I thought

It's Nas , one of the top 3 MC's of all time. what did you expect?
I was thinking the same thing. Like this is nas song
Nas is the 🐐
I was just thinking this
The song was set up by design for nas to get off cuz it’s nas, both got off tho!
Guys real hip hop is coming back, we are winning this...

Perfect track. I wish Dave East could choose beats for Nas. He sounds excellent on this.
Nas always flows on any beat

Nas gave him this record.. Dave did the smart thing & used it immediately
This comment is so stupid I wanna smack the fuvk outta you. Never mind that Nas gave Dave the track. Once the internet gets a hold of a narrative, y’all will run that shit into the ground
Nas has been doing a lot better since hit boi,since swiss beats etc.I think he figured it out with the producers.
If this doesn’t restore the feeling for you than I don’t know what will.
Nas can literally rap until he’s 80 years old prolly
Big fact

All facts #thugpoet #halfmanhalfamazing
And still keep looking like he's 40
Cuz he has a lot of content
This song is a mothafuckin masterpiece! These two always kill it when they collab 💯🙏

A friendship is built overtime and trust too
But trust is a contract it constantly needs to be renewed

That line sticks to the ribs sorta like:
A thug changes,
And love changes,
And best friends become strangers.
-Nas "The Message" on IWW
The longevity of Nas is amazing and he’s definitely top 3 that EVER was an MC

@@markfabro1550 I rock wit that list heavy. My top 3 in no particular order r Biggie, Nas, & Pun
Nas is top 1. The only one. The Neo of this music thing.
When Dave east said "Yoh big Bro" i felt it
Trust is contract that constantly needs to be renewed. Probably one of the truest things I’ve ever heard in my life
Another master class from NAS.. Dave gave it to his mentor unselfishly, gotta respect that.
East bringing that old nas back! Imagine those sessions in the studio.
I appreciate this new NAS
@Aaron9 As you mature you will appreciate it lol the younger me couldn't relate
@Aaron9 you gotta have a balance when you live negative u need positivity
@Aaron9 this was better than any joint on it though, vernon family best after it imo
Seymour Deniro It’s the old NAS his word play is the dopest
Damn !!!! I don't care what anybody say ain't nothing better than real NY hip hop

I got bars about being a Dogon Time Traveler too. I feel validated. These verses are upper echolon.
“Like a tree falling in the middle of the forest, nobody heard your shit drop it’s really garbage” 🔥 🔥 🔥
Dave East a beast and Nas is simply the GOAT
"Blast niggaz like a navy laser" ....🥶🥶🥶

Always a pleasure to hear Nas spit, love this song.
