I remember when nobody new nas , i knew
of him first from the barbecue song, and
back to the grill again song, i always
loved his style , he was nasty nas back
then. I also remember bet had a contest
on judging new videos ..kiss it or diss
it . They voted halftime diss it ... I
couldnt believe that,, it goes to show
it takes time for real talent to be
shown.
Nas is dropping an album with dj premier
after he drops his def jam album. It
will be out in febuary or march. One of
the greatest mc's ever hooking up with
the greatest producer (besides marley
marl and pete rock) dj premier. Can't
wait.
Rokee i feel ya. I remember sneaking out
to see nasty nas at home bass in '91. If
there was 100 people there that was a
lot. Onyx had the place overflowing a
week later. Can you believe that?!! me,
my whole crew knew this n*gga was nasty.
Long live the king!
Classic nas on this one -- he fell off
after this -- but brought some heat back
recently, especially with ether -- one
of the best bat
Finishing up -- ether was one of the
best battle rap songs ever; up there
with south bronk by bdp. Classic lyrics
on this halftime joint. "when i attack
there ain't an army that can strike
back". I think rokee's comment shows
that it's not that it takes time to
realize talent, but it's that most
people are followers and tip riders,
they're not gonna embrace something
until other people do.
Nas dropped illmatic in 94. Illmatic is
one of the greatest hip-hop albums of
all time. The lyrics is crazy and the
beats is sick. Nas has been one of the
greastest mc's since his classic album
illmatic. His last album hip-hop is dead
is also a classic. Hip-hop is back now
that jay-z and nas are doing big things.
Jay-z and nas should make a album
together because they are to lengends
and two of the greatest. If they would
make a album together it would be
straight fire.
I dont understand when people say
nas(true b boy of the highest calibur)
fell off after this album. His second
album was just as fly as the first one.
This was the 1st nas track that i ever
heard him rhymin all by himself. My
favorite nas track is who's world is
this remix by q tip from a tribe called
quest. Nas never ceases to amaze, from
both before and ever since this video.
New york baby!
Nasty nas was and is the illest. He
forced every mc to throw out there rhyme
book...and start writin at a whole new
level. He changed the game...tha
bbq....halftime..classics
Old school for real. Nas should look
back. Nobodysmiling should put up
nas represent video
Gr8est rapper alive, forget lil wayne
What people dont seem to understand is
that this here is hip hop......idk what
the hell we r bumpin in our radios
now-a-day.... Today ots all about the
money back then when hip hop was at its
strongest artists actually cared about
the quality of their music.....and there
r too many hustlas in the game if u a
hustla, hit the block and get out the
studio....but dont F*ck up hip hop
trying to make a quick buck
Halft time a nother example of the lucid
lyrical tongue, beholder nas
The greatest mc
Nas 1992 classic "halftime" produced by
the large professor
