In this VladTV exclusive, Godfrey converse about Nas’ beat selection. They both agree that he isn’t the best beat picker although they’re a fan of his music. The two also talk about Busta Rhymes making timeless music including his “Look at Me Now” verse.
Lastly, Godfrey shares his opinion about 2Pac and Biggie, saying that Biggie is a better lyricist than Pac.
Watch the interview above.
Vlad: I have an interesting history with nas
Also Vlad: I’ve never actually met nas
🤦🏽♂️
That's why I love this channel, he keeps contradicting himself and sneak dissing but the responses are always gold
He has a history with Nas as a FAN not as a personal relationship.......
Lmao as soon as it starts
Also states ive took a picture with him.
"I've taken a picture with him, but I've never met him"
Vlad "I've never met Nas but I've took a picture with him " lol WTF
livelifenasty threw me off too lol. Maybe took a group photo without meeting him??
livelifenasty photoshops a helluva drug
Vlad says a lot just to get rep. If Nas did accept an interview however, He'll wank like he said nothing negative about him .
I love to hear Godfrey, Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle talke about HIP HOP!
Chris Rock and Aries Spears talk from a perspective as if they are rappers
Word that would be dope!
Vlad Talking points:
-Nas is the worst beat-picker
-When people get killed, they were usually high
-Tupac
-I have several guns
don't forget
L O R D J A M A R I N T E R V I E W S
-I have friends in the streets
- bigging himself up
- homosexuality
Ice cube wasn’t a real gangster
He took losses on street investments
Most of all Nas beats are great for storytelling not for club shit
purefire21 made you look, hate me now , if I rule were massive club joints in the 90s and 00s tho
purefire21 you can have dope beats and they not be for the club
Facts but Pharoahe Monch right there or in the lead 100%
And he can't pick singles, how was his song with Aaliyah NOT a single? New World? NOT a single! Rule? NOT a single! One More Dance? NOT a single! Jadakiss suffers from this problem too.
Sean Taylor disagree, what happened with Pharohe was he made Simon Says and that song was a SUPREME BANGER, up there with Whoah, In the Club, Lean Back all that shit. But then he got SUPER SUED for sampling Godzilla and never got a shot like that again
Godfrey asked the important question what type of relationship do u have with Nas if you never met him
Derek Matthews lol it makes u wonder if he been lyin bout most the relationships he say he has with people.
Godfrey needs his own podcast for Hip Hop
Damn, GODCAST is taken!!
Guess Eminem didn't test the last album in that Ford Focus cause that album 💩💩💩💩💩
He must have sold that Focus in 03.
HAHAHAHAHA.
literally the new Em album came and just left like that. no one is talking about it already
HATE is a sign of ENVY except OFFENDED that shit go hard
You're right my guy. Fuck that sumbitch!
Again with the Nas thing? Hahaha what the hell..
Vlad can't go one interview without mentioning either homosexuality or Nas! Hilarious!
Zbigniew Volkov or slim Jesus
Simon Hill not true he haven't mentioned slim jesus in years
Or Ice cube
Or how shocked he was to find out Ice Cube wasn’t really a gangster
Zbigniew Volkov.. Or that Boosie interview
I like Godfrey outlook on hip-hop
Man, this argument is old already.
RIICE BEAR so is yo reply
Vlad still pissed that Nas won’t come by for an interview 😂
awesomieRee123 its never old until you heard EVERYONE'S opinion
And here you are
@@geraldjohnson9352 Cook, nigga
A coworker once told me Nas’s beat selections are like trying to watch a really good movie, with a captivating story and writing, stellar cast and great acting.. while a ratchet, loud mouthed, obnoxious female is yelling at her babydaddy on speakerphone with all 4 of her kids crying and throwing shit in the movie theater. The most accurate analogy I’ve heard thus far 😂
This dude knows his hip-hop. Busta was famous for closing
Body language “fuck yo opinion vlad” 4:22
Huey X u
He got those long ass Arsenio Hall fingers...lol
Journo's opinions matter no more.
“Stillmatic” “I am” and. “The lost tapes”had fire beats on it
I just want my baby yuppp!
Lol to the profile pic. Lol
I just want my baby Lost tapes was that shit. The Found tapes had some fiya on it too.
Illmatic and It Was Written had dope beats on it as well. 'I Am' had trash beats
I am for me though have some not really nas type of beat like dr knockboot.stillmatic Hardest beatss still trying to do the one mic remix of my own with the sample of in the air tonight (i guess),ether hard too
He knows his hip hop!
The worst beat picker? Have they even listened to Nas. He has a few shit beats but he is nowhere close to being considered the worst.
Hzrds0 Worst of his caliber.... He's talking about of the "TOP TIER MC's"...
@@UrbanMaxxTV I'm still holding out hope that Nas will one day reunite the ILLMATIC production roster for one more go at it. A man can dream can't he?
Still dreaming by Nas and Kanye is my personal favorite track by Nas
1000gohead totally agree
One one one one two one two
I read a comment saying this video was coming yesterday 😂😂😂😂
NORTHENDKING14 lmaooo I sawr that too. Hilarious.
Tupac and Nas can make a hit out of any beat.
Baffles me how Vlad fails to see the irony in Hip Hop is Dead having the same beat as Theifs Theme...
Niggas need stop saying Illmatic is Nas’ best album. It Was Written is literally Illmatic but better lyrically and producing wise. Nas’ lyrical wordplay reached its peak in ‘96. No other incarnation of Nas can step up to ‘96 Nas. He was just a monster at that time.
‘Take It In Blood’ and ‘I Gave You Power’ shit on Illmatic’s entire track list.
Superior in what way? Lyrically? Nope. Production? Not even close.
Heck even Stillmatic can be considered better than Illmatic. Illmatic fanboys just need to stop lol.
I agree 💯
Climaxing I thought about it for a minute, but then realised there’s no way in the world. Illmatic is definitely better than IWW.
Nah, those two songs are the best ones on the album and a couple more but beat wise, it was garbage. Lyrically, it was better than illmatic...
Climaxing I always said that. It was written was better then illmatic
Nothing they said here is revolutionary. Just repeating twitter arguments.
majority of last album Life is Good had hot beats. lol "worst beat picker of all time" is goofy as hell exaggeration
Los Buitres. that was a good album but overall he's the worst beat picker
Honestly there’s so many worse beat pickers than Nas
8ball64 they not on nas level tho.production should not be a problem with 1 of the goats
Los Buitres. Word...the best album after Stillmatic
The Notorious Dumbass smh factz bro. Idk how I forgot that one lol.
Bus even went last on Hail Mary Remix.
John Brown Murdered Jeffrey!
John Brown he killed it
John Brown he did? It's been so long since I've heard that song
Tha Taurus Yeah. Go listen to it.
John Brown yes you can when your intention is to kill an imitator (Ja Rule)
Nas don't need a great beat, his rhymes are enough!
Sophisticated Ignorance 👌🏿
I could actually!
Thirsty Carlos not true. Hip Hop is the "collection" of lyrics and sound, not just lyrics, bruh. If that's the case, in what u're sayn, he can have the dumbest beat for every song but different poetic lyrics for the same dumb beat and it won't be a problem????? Shidddd...... IT'LL BE A PROBLEM, BRUH.
CJ GAMEON Yea but Vlad is trippin, Nas does rap on good beats
Bullshit ..Dope beats matter
I've never met nas....I took a pic with him once ..but ya we have never met 😂😂😂
Godfrey made the best point... Stick with Preemo! Nas hasn't worked with Preemo in 17 years...that's a travesty!
he said its like pink cookies in a plastic bag 😂😂😂
"It Was Written" > "Illmatic"
real talk
ronniemas1 Thank You!!!!
Been saying this since 07'
Nononono
Bruh, he had actual hits. told stories better and even had a conceptual track speaking from the POV of a gun. the end
Eminem picks far worse beats lol. His rhymes are great but he's picked some horrible beats.
Del'Ray Coles what rapper hasn't?
Biggie was a better freestyler pac better wit the pen
Pac was a better freestyler and a better writer, Biggie always spit written freestyles
pimpmastaa101 Biggie once said in an interview that he couldn't freestyle. So, you're telling the truth.
@@pimpmastaa101 negative biggie was a way better lyricist.
@@lunarnature412 As I have gotten older, I have come to respect Pac's subject matter in his songs a great deal. Biggie's flow was more ill IMO though.
Method Man is the worst beat picker of all-time.
Unkle Al so then your calling Rza the worst beat producer of all time...u forgot about Tical album i see
Being a better lyricist is like being the better shooter in the nba. Curry better shooter then lebron but lebron is better then everything else. That’s how I look at it with pac n big
guwapDCFINEST great way to put it
Tbh I have Nas overall better than Pac and Big
1) Nas
2) 2pac
3) Jay Z
4) Biggie
5) Kendrick Lamar
Cala Bunga I feel you I just think Tupac was number one nas my second. Pac impact was like Jordan’s to basketball
Cala Bunga I like ur list people dont understand how each of kendrick's album tells a story. If u really think about it kendricks story telling skills are crazy look what he did on duckworth
There's multiple rappers with worse beat selections. Like Eminem.
Nas has rapped over 50+ dope ass beats if you include his unreleased material. His song selection for his albums is worse than his beat selection.
Eminems beats were dope af back in the day
L.A.B. thank U. Some1 besides me finally mentions the unreleased side of things... Dude has soooo many tracks out there... It's ridiculous...
I can easily name 20 non album songs I think are good beat n lyrically wise.... I don't think neegas really f w Nasty as much as they claim. Or have zero interest in Jazz. Cuz I heard the same about Kendrick's TPAB cd. Which I actually really liked beat wise.. Lol
L.A.B. nas and em are both trash beat pickers
L.A.B. Highly disagree, ems beats were hot af. He was produced by dre, which beats are you talking about??
I appreciate and listen to Nas for his poetical talent.
Part 13 of infinity
Y'all vibe so well, do more with him
Netflix should give Godfrey a special... Best Vlad interviews lately
Godfrey is the best guest to go on vlad hands down he’s energy is great
What people have to realize is that Illmatic was an experiment by the top producers in the city HANDPICKING Nas to be the face of their combined beats into one project.
Nas didn't orchestrate Illmatic,he just rapped over the beats.So when you see him rap over beats that are perceived to be horrible its due to the fact that he never had an ear for beats like his peers that are still active (Jay or Andre 3000,BlackThought etc).
Hov,Spitta,Ross,Jay Worthy and Freddie Gibbs have the best ears for beats. Dom Kennedy gets honorable mention
And 50 Cent
EastBayMoonWalker510 _ Cube, E 40, Snoop, Eazy, Too short, and DJ Quik are the best beat picker of all time imo new York beats have an expiration date on them. Facts
DICKRIN HATER first of all, Ice Cubes Producers were The Bomb Squad, as in Public Enemy's Producers, who are from New York...
Bruce Leeds They made them beats more West coast tho...
DICKRIDIN HATER ...STOP IT!! New York has Classic Producers and Timeless beats that's one! Two, how you gonna do a west coast list and not Have Dre, Cypress Hill, Xhibit and The Alchemist in it?
Just watched Godfrey stand up "Regular Black" 😂👌
If u have lyrics u don't need beats. Good rappers don't want the producer to outshine them. Nas is the goat
That makes no damn sense. Good beats make good rappers sound even better. The beats were part of the reason Illmatic was such a great album.
@@J2theK Agree with that bro, don't care how good a rapper's lyricism is, the beats needa sound dope or else it's a flop, Eminem rapped on some bad beats after he stopped working with Dre and his other old producers
I disagree 1000 percent
Biz Benoit They’re Crazy😆
You think Nas has consistently good beats?
Joe Basile what do you mean by "good beats?" If you want club bangers and radio hits then NO. But if you want Hip Hop tracks then Hells YES. Nas picks Hip Hop beats and then proceeds to elevate them. Plus he has super classic beats on multiple albums. I can give you a list if you want.
You don't have to give me a list, I own nearly his whole catalog. I don't listen to Nas for beats anyway, his story telling and lyricism make up for any production shortcomings. Plus, I think he makes it work for the most part in the way he rides a beat. But, if I'm trying to be fair, he has a LOT of bad production. Doesn't mean he doesn't also have a lot of moments, but if you consider how long his career has been, of course he'd at least have a decent amount of good production scattered. This is all opinion, if you disagree that's fine. No, I don't mean club banger production, that shit annoys me anyway. I mean poorly mixed; lazily sampled, oddly stacked, awkward rhythms, unpolished, borderline amateur production. Yes, you could throw a bunch of Premo; Havoc, and Remi beats at me that are good if not great, but the usual team he has behind the boards I just find don't really give his lyricism the background or justice that it needs/deserves.
Joe Basile I own his entire catalog as well and I would really like for you to give me a few examples that fall into what you outlined regarding beats being poorly mixed, lazily sampled, oddly stacked etc. I won't sit here and say that I don't think Nas has had complete misses with regards to song quality but I simply don't attribute that to him consistently having below average production. The people who I usually hear say that are people who want to hear mainstream radio or club songs given Nas stature in the game. You're right, we have a right to our opinions...but that doesn't mean we can't have a conversation. The Nas tracks that I've thought were bad mostly had to do with a poor hooks, inconsistent rhyme delivery or just Nas completely reaching conceptually. Again, not to say he hasn't had subpar production in some instances but to say he has "consistently" subpar production? Nah, I can't agree with that on face value. His beats are pure Hip Hop. That said, I do agree that there have been instances where some of his more brilliant album material could've been elevated by street sweeper production.
Both of them need to listen to "It Was Written," "Stillmatic," "Street's Disciple," "God's Son" and "Life is Good."
His first few albums just had the raw gritty and jazzy New York sound
do more Godfrey, love to hear this guy
I like wen they have lyric debates lol to see how good they memory is with punchlines
Damn, excuse my ignorance..... I had no idea Godfrey had Hip Hop knowledge like that. And well articulated opinions unlike vlad(Nas hater). Awesome interview (thanks to the guest).
Yo, I wasn't ready the the Mt.Dew can LOL. Godfrey switch from Sprite.
Vlad keep Godfrey Coming would love to see Lord Jarmar and Godfrey together. They both should be regulars individually and together every so often... Always great interviews from these 2!!
Yall really dont get it. Nas is showin that he can rock over even bullshit beats. Thats what makes him Great! Dam vlad, catch up!!
What some of us want though, is the best of both worlds. Great lyrcism (Which NAS delivers all the time) WITH great production. When the latter isn't keeping up with the former, it makes the song sound like a missed opportunity for greatness.
Don't know this dude but he's 100% right about Nas and Busta. Lyrically these guys sit amongst the pantheon of Emcee gods. However the production has been weak over certain albums. It's sacrilege to let such verbal tapestry go to waste over some tin pan production.
Nas is a lyricist so i think for him its more about his lyrics then the beats.
You should do more interview with Godfrey I like his social commentary
No no no no no nas is not the worst beat picker of all time that title goes to method man not one classic solo album but a great artist
4:24 I love how Godfrey low key just flipped Vlad off 😂😂🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽
Buss went in on the never scared remix
No. Canibus is the worst beat picker of all time. Brilliant rhymes in his prime his production was baaad.
Shoutouts to my people with that Ford Focus
🚗💨💨
Nas is my favorite rapper of all time, but
I agree about his best picking at times.
Big Dean
As a Nas fan I'd have to respect ur perspective. But I just don't see how. Maybe cuz imma Jazz fan as well. It's heavily influenced thruout his stuff. Like a lot ppl dislike street's disciple. I feel it's his top 5 album beat wise, storytelling/lyrically.
Big Dean
Have U heard a lot of his "unreleased" stuff?
Solomon McCants
Big Girl Now. Shit. 1/4 of Nastradamus.
Eric Perry Thank You. Illmatic, Stillmatic and many of It was Written was the albums where the albums was tight with beats and production.
Big Dean
Why R U thanking me? I DISagreed w u off top. Lol did U read what I said?
Did typo (best) & meant (beat) on the main comment right?
GET GODFREY BACK ON HERE!
🗣I’m dead 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 GODFREY GOT ME WEAK ASF BRO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Busta killed that Hail Mary ja rule diss
This is a great conversation!!!!!! More of this!!!
Nas was a lyricist. Simple boom clap beats go beat when your spitting bars and telling a story.
Nas is like is top 5 beat ever in my opinion. He picked that.
Godfrey was putting in that plug with mountain dew new sponsorship bruh!!!!!
I miss Dread Head Busta Rhymes
Godfrey knows his rap shit no doubt! Lol I cringed heavily when vlad started reciting biggie's verse 😹😹
“We never met...” “we took a picture together once...” wtf is wrong with this dude? Lmfao
When nas and premo come together it’s 10/10
Damn when he brought up Pac... so sorely missed in the world..
You can always find clowns to join your circus Vlad
I agree with both guys. Nas picks some awful beats. Stillmatic album is a prime example. The Stillmatic intro might be one of the hardest songs Nas ever did, but it is only one verse, then comes Ether, then the beats just fall off. The flyest with AZ is dope, but you can't start an album off that strong and then just fall off until track 8 or 9.
Hahaha Vladimir trying to rap Biggie’s verse was 😂😂😂😂! Godfrey needs more airtime on more platforms.
It’s a known fact that Tupac didn’t rely on himself to pick beats. That’s a true producers role. A lyricist is not required to know the ins and outs of production. It’s a bonus if they do. Just like it’s a bonus if a rapper can also produce like DJ Quik for example.
Met both Godfrey and Nas at different times. Would love it if they met.
4:24 middle finger to dj vlad
If u think biggie was more lyrical than tupac your opinion on bars is irrelevant.
Jordan Bryant you don't understand lyricism. Biggie is definitely more lyrical. Pac can rhyme but he wasn't a spitter. He didn't use slick lines and crazy wordplay. He relied more on emotion.
Bruh oh my fucking god
How you gonna tell me the beats Nas raps on are wack
The beats he raps on are dope af
The old Busta is a fuckin beast
Vlad,Godfrey, and lord jamar sound like best friends who just had a reunion they need to do a 3 way interview
Ok time to drop the whole interview , enough is enough vlad
Vlad stick to interviewing. Nas ain't ever spit to a wack beat. So many joints that he can put out lost tapes. Too easy.
Vlad your the only one that compares versus. Just enjoy the fuckin song. No one gives a fuck about who got who
It's because he's a poet and a writer. Most artists pick the best first and then come up with the rhythm and rhymes to rock with the beat. Nas pulls out his rhyme book, and then picks the beat.
Godfrey speaks sense, he knows how to speak about HipHop with sense.
Nas song called Mastermind off that God Son album was banging tho it was produced by Alchemist
Comedians got real good memory
He is the greatest rapper of all time
But check Biggie on Where Brooklyn At? He was full speed ahead. I want Godfrey to do a Tupac impression.
It Was Written was Nas' best album BUT after that he allowed Diddy and Steve Stoute turn him into a mainstream rapper. He didn't redeem himself until God's Son but it was too late. He should have only solicited production from Dj Premiere, Salaam Remi, and/or the Rza.
I just want Vlad to lay out some examples to support his argument, he's been on this for a few years and I haven't heard one yet.
Nas isn't the worst beat picker but he did have a terrible spell in the late 90's with them shitty The Firm, I Am & Nastradamus albums. Yeah those albums did have some joints but overall they wasn't good. Hip Hop Is Dead & Streets Disciple had average production for the most part, nothing really wack on them from what i remember. Other than those his beat selection is great.
Disagree about I am being a shitty album
Nastridomous was classic.
Adam Phillip 2pac was a terrible beat picker and that's no direspect towards him as a artist
Vega lee wrong
DJ Willz he’s very wrong!
I feel like I am is super underrated
Godfrey said only dj premo do beats for nas and les too now that's classic
It was written is his best Full Album. Illmatic was 1 track away from being an E.P. and Distant Relatives with Damian Marley was A Classic
0:25 He REALLY wants Mountain Dew to call him LOL
