This interview perfectly exudes why this man is the greatest of all time. This album is so powerful and so overlooked. The GOAT and it's not even close
He was always who he was, Hip-Hop’s greatest ambassador, Hip-Hop’s greatest spokesperson and Hip-Hop’s greatest artist. Always was the one that took the risk for the culture. Nas = Genius. Beautiful in 2008, so prophetic in 2022
This is why I love nas , his music is pure and as he rightfully said in one of his interviews his music is to spark ideas , get the wheels in motion , make you think , reflect , educate . Greatest of all time . Club bangers is for Jayz (Hawaiian Sophie) not this brother

No bullshit
Crazy how he states "Life is Good" before that album dropped. Insane.

Valid
I love how Tavis said that his brothers loved that nas shouted him out on 1 of tracks lol
NAS IS A PROPHET. ONE LOVE KING.
He is the quenticencial of what art is.
*quintessential*
@@Eastpointe thanks
Nas is a prophet. That is indeed where Nigeria got that name from.
It was coined from 2 words “nigger (negro) area”
One of my favorite Nas albums. I wish I heard more from him like that.
BTW - Great content
The G.O.A.T.
I'm from Zimbabwe but shout out to Nigeria, that mention from Nas is profound

Why the footage quality looks like it's from 1998 rather than 2008.
Nasir Jones is just a God-special soul!
Hero
Dope interview
I concur... He is very conscious of his existence...
This album was Illmatic II. He moved from Queensbridge to America
This comment is underrated
The first lost tapes is the closest Nas is ever going to get to an illmatic 2, I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.......
That record was the truth my brother aka my nigga 💯
Crazy how these two have been targeted by campaigns to cancel them
Bingo
Frfr 💯
