Off his new album: 'Your top three, I'm not number one, how could you post that?' and I completely agree. The more you listen to him, soon you'll have him as the GOAT. The guy is not just an old head, dude spittin harder than anyone in the game and just as relevant now as he was in 94. Released an 8/10 and 9/10 albums this year alone. MFer active for 30 years and 17 albums under his belt.
Nas definitely breaks my top 3 best of all time . The man's been consistently putting out hits since he was 17 years old and has had at least 5 albums that went to the US number 1. He's managed to walk the line between commercial success and artistic credibility for over 3 decades. He's a legend. Period.
"Much success to ya, even if you wish me the opposite. Sooner or later we'll all see who the prophet is" - that is legit the best line I've ever heard in music.
Back when Nas still had a chipped tooth! Try telling 19 year old Nas then that his music would be studied at Harvard 30 years later. And then have a fellowship at that University with his name attached to it. Living Legend!
This takes me back. I remember hearing and recording this off the radio before it got wide release. Played it after Christmas break for my dudes in DC and they flipped
Just had to refresh this comment section. Love what you do here, youngin. Your knowledge and respect of true lyricism makes you a real one, with an old soul. Don't get it twisted. Everybody wasn't dope back in the day, but the difference was most emcees had a real respect for their craft. They worked hard at being a dope lyricist, just for the sake of being the best. Nas is definitely in my top 3, and the more I think about it, he might just be my #1. Who else has been as dope as him for as long as him? You might wanna peep Black Thought too. He's another superior emcee with a large catalog and a lot of years in the game.
Who top 5 depends on the era for some. Original ERA 1.Melly Mel 2.Grand Master Caz 3.Spoonie Gee 4.Schoolly D 5. Kool Moe Dee (of The Treacherous Three) Honorable mention Just - Ice & Kool Kieth of Ultramagnetic MCs Pre Golden Era -who set the tone here for modern day MCs and artist 1. Rakim 2. KRS-One 3.Kool G Rap 4. Big Daddy Kane 5. LL Cool J Honorable Mention Slick Rick the Ruler The Golden Era 1. NAS 2. Biggie 3. Ice Cube 4. 2 PAC 5. Scarface Honorable Mention JAY Z Rass Kass Ghost face Killah Raekwon da Chef And early 2000’s Black Thought..Immortal Technique…Papoose… Eminem… Tech n9ne … Beanie Sigel … Jadakiss… Project Pat so many Juggernauts But overall I would say NAS Is my favorite All-time
You're wrong. It doesn't matter the era. In every testament of life there's a child who transcendent beyond the sky and shine over the mass . That child is considered the greatest to ever do it on what he does . No matter the generation before and after. Michael Jackson Michael Jordan Bruce Lee Bob Marley Mike Tyson Pele' And in this case ( hip hop ) Nas .
man that OG 90s NY hip hop goes perfectly with basketball. idky it just does bruh. like if im playin ball in the park and this song just came on outta nowhere id start playin better lol
Keep doin ya thing young playa. Im from NY.... Nas was like our best kept secret until around 98...then he really started to blow. I was a lil kid tho at the time...maybe 8th grade. Still knew Nas was the greatest
The Greatest its like seeing Brady get his 7th Super Bowl ring. Its like what else do they have to do, to keep reminding you how great they are in my opinion. Salute to you king n God Bless Everyone 🙏
It’s all a matter of taste. I totally understand anybody who got B.I.G., Pac, Jay, Rakim or Em as number one. However ANY rapper will tell you, Nas is the golden child. This song for me is like the most perfect song in his career.
Hate Me Now,One Mic,I Can(The Videos) 🔥🔥🔥His Song Rewind & Undying Love And You Definitely Most Definitely Have To React To I Gave You Power An Absolute Classic
He #1 period!. Flow,intellect,storytelling,crime boss rap, consciousness, his voice, his dress style, lyrics studied at Harvard,..gtfoh ..nobody discography got his...NOBODY
His catalog is to the point now where he's out of reach for anyone in my opinion. In the last decade his album output in terms of quality this far into his career nearly 30 years is untouchable
Flow deep deep deep lyrics original most creative concept song writer in the History of MUSIC not just hip hop can drop commercially dope songs is the ONLY MC who can for the line of underground and mainstream is from the most legendary and important hood in our culture look at his musical roots with his father who is one of the greatest Jazz musicians ever. Nas wasn’t just born for music spoken word creativity and poetry he was born to be a legend. I tell ppl this all the time the thing everyone fails is to truly capture who his true contemporaries are. Nas just happens to partake in rap music but to me his true comparison is Langston Hughes Charles Dickens Edgar Allen Poe Shakespeare Donald Goins and many of the greatest writers poets and literaries of our time. For me personally he is the greatest writer poet and artist that ever existed
Listen this man said sooner or later we all see who the prophet is 20 plus years, now we sure see why that pronouncement was made. Check out his catalogue with his droppings in the last years sure you know you know G.O.A.T
Check out , The Life We Chose and Quick to Back Down, both Nas jams...and before him and j called each other out by name they both had a jam called , come and get me. After that , knew they was bout to go to war.
Nas number one for me.... intellectual..his flow..his style...his soul...

Nas is number 1. 🐐 New album Magic is a masterpiece. 🔥🔥
Album reaction dropping soon
I love when young dudes find and appreciate that BOOM BAP I grew up on.
"Like Greeks in Egypt learning something deep from their teachers" - one of the best lines of all time 🤯
Always spits some truth to power in his music. The true 🐐
"Much success to ya, even if you wish me the opposite. Sooner or later we'll all see who the prophet is" - that is legit the best line I've ever heard in music.
Nas Take it in blood
Nas Gotta Luv it
🔥🔥
For me nas is has been and always will be number one!
Ultimate lyricist!
Back when Nas still had a chipped tooth! Try telling 19 year old Nas then that his music would be studied at Harvard 30 years later. And then have a fellowship at that University with his name attached to it. Living Legend!
Nas is #1...👑
The track that got me to Nas is the message, after that I've listening to Nas thru and thru.....none like him, there will never be any
Nas and Premier, the perfect combo.
That's what great parenting looks like. His parents poured their strength and knowledge in him. This is the product.
earth, wind and fire. rims and tires bulletproof glass inside is the realest driver.
Nas is the G.O.A.T point-blank 💯
I'm now new Nas born again, he's my new #1
DJ Premier on the beat.... can't go wrong with Premier

DEFINITELY THE G.O.A.T

Nas always murders the second verse

It’s all a matter of taste. I totally understand anybody who got B.I.G., Pac, Jay, Rakim or Em as number one. However ANY rapper will tell you, Nas is the golden child. This song for me is like the most perfect song in his career.

I must of wrote at least 20 different verses to this beat. 🤣
Nas #1🐐
The first verse is top 3 verses in hip-hop history
Nas - Get Down and/or Nas - Memory Lane ;)
Get down..so underrated

THE GREATEST MC/LYRICIST OF ALL TIME, Nasir Jones! #NASTYTHENICEST 👑🐏

Nas definitely top 5
KRS ONE,NAS,Wu Tang Clan,Gang Starr,A Tribe Called Quest...are always in my phone ready to rock

Nas the goat
Nasty Nas
Nas a true goat
He #1 period!. Flow,intellect,storytelling,crime boss rap, consciousness, his voice, his dress style, lyrics studied at Harvard,..gtfoh ..nobody discography got his...NOBODY
Capital murder case for this beat..wow... Nas flow and delivery is something else..omg
The beat is DJ Premier.
Nas small world
Hands down (you gat to be fool if his not in your #1)
Nas and Premo need stop playing and do a whole Lp together...Prem on the Scratch mag cover been talkin bout dat forever now...
The beat is not from Rakim. DJ Primere composed the beat. Rakim is an 80s artist that inspired Nas.
This my ish right here🤘🏿🔥🔥🔥
Nas is No. 1
Nas was in the last 2k I played
Nas my top 1# of all times
You already know. Nas is like... the greatest!
Premier worked with both. NaS isn’t Rakim though, but he’s damn good.
His catalog is to the point now where he's out of reach for anyone in my opinion. In the last decade his album output in terms of quality this far into his career nearly 30 years is untouchable
It's been insane the quality he's putting out
Nas is top 3.
1.Rakem
2.Nas
3.Biggie
Nas is a special rapper, he is different.
Nas is number 1
Number 1 got to be. Who else put out classic records for 20 years he the only one .
