Nas once again rapping his ass off but I found Hit-Boy's production to be a bit of a letdown
this go round after he set the bar so high on the last two King's Diseases and the first
Magic. Still pretty good though. Also Jesus 50's appearance was embarrassing. I knew Nas
would eat him for lunch on a track but that was laughable. No wonder why he left rap to
produce TV shows. |

"Nas Hype Cycle:
- Nas album drops
- People claim that Nas has finally returned to form and that the release is his best
since
Illmatic
- Those same people listen to it more than twice
- They promptly move onto something else and forget it ever came out"
It's more the opposite, where people listen to a new Nas album once and go "Meh, it's not
Illmatic." - which is kind of a silly thing to expect at this point, as Illmatic came
out during a different era, the golden age of hip-hop, and when he was a young, hungry
rapper and not a wealthy celeb in his late 40's. With that being said, not many rappers,
if any, from that golden era are still putting out albums that are as stellar as this new
one. |
