Trevor such a great interviewer. So rare to see a host actually listening to his guests, ask questions that doesn't belittle them and actually allows them to answer without interruption.
I absolutely love Nas and I think he is one of the greatest lyrical rappers to ever live, but being objective, you can't say Trevor doesn't ask some really amazing questions in these interviews.
That may be true, but at least Trevor is giving Nas the platform to reacquaint himself with loyalist like myself and introduce himself to the people of this generation who obviously don't know a thing about him. It works out
Great point Trevor made…Nas definitely struck a great balance between reminiscing on the past and giving advice for the future. AND he did it in a way that didn’t come off as condescending or preachy, which can be tough to do. He’s really embraced this mentor figure in hip hop and disproved the notion that it’s only a young man’s game
I grew up listening to Nas. He’s like a sage on the top of a mountain that comes down and gives you knowledge and then goes back on top of the mountain. This was said about him back in the 90s and he still true of him today he’s the gold standard
Finally!!! This man is getting his flowers. He should a been on all the shows and doing all the interviews in 1994 but it's cool, as long as he's alive to be celebrated I'm so happy for him and so proud to be from Queens right now. Nas is that guy... Loving this Nas renaissance we're in right now
Nas been doing interviews since the Illmatic days. Tons of his interviews here on RUclips, he’s just a lot more selective in recent years about whose platform he appears on.
I just find it overwhelming how Nas speaks to both Trevor and the audience and how he interacts with them and pays attention to them, it shows that he cares about others.
This is the most comfortable I’ve seen him on this type of platform. It’s awesome to see him this way. Like he let his guard down and is sharing a different side of himself. Great to see
Facts. . because most of his career he's been anti-establishment/anti media etc ... But now that he's an entrepreneur and getting involved in multiple things now, he knows he can't be that way anymore.. or at least not as much
So happy for Nas. Finally being celebrated and appreciated while still alive. 4 great albums in 2 years is a massive feat. HE IS A LEGEND and remains my favorite rap artiste.
Nas was very diplomatic in his answer to "where hip hop is going" and i find it admirable even though im not a fan of 90% of it. He is still setting a precedent in his genre at the highest level, but at 50 years old
Exactly.. every line makes more sense and I’m loving it the more… because Nas actually had Beyoncé before Jay z and he’s ready to expose the sh** out of them now
@@melissarossi2922 No he didn’t. Nas was never with Beyonce. Where did you hear that? She was underage at the time in the 90s plus she had a boyfriend way, way before she met Jay Z.
Nas is one of my favorite emcees of all time and is hip-hop's greatest storyteller of all time. "Rewind", "It Ain't Hard to Tell", "What Goes Around", "Loco-Motive", "Get Down", "One Mic", "Hate Me Now", "I Can" are songs which Nas literally paints a picture of his hometown and neighborhood with words. Dude is a hip-hop living legend!
Nas!!! Almost 50 but still passionate about creating music. Tell me what more would his fan want... Except for "Distant Relatives II" with Damian Marley. Much love from Kenya🇰🇪.
Wow, that would be amazing, if Nas and Damien were to release another one. Distant relatives is one of my favourite albums. Such a consistent awesome artist.
Wow! Trevor Noah is really living the dream. As a fellow South African I can't help but be inspired by his work. Shout out to Nas and Hit Boy, great trilogy with KD+ Magic.
Nas’s best album to date, possibly. Brought that 96-98 nostalgic era back better then anyone has to date with this one. Easily my favorite real hip hop album in ages. Kings Disease 3 🏅
1:55 That's for all who have been calling me a conspiracy theorist. See? Even Nas acknowledges it. Jay definitely knows what he's doing. The competition has never stopped.
No matter how big and how reconized this man gets, he never loses his humbleness and simplicity. Nas is wize because he is open minded to know he can get wizer every day. Salute to the GOAT the master and the king Nasir Jones 🙏🙏🙏
1. Nas- the goat 🐐🐐🐐 2. 2 Pac- A performance actor 3. Biggie- the fat kid who could rap and we loved 4. Jay Z- the one who could flow nice to impress girls
@@EDDIEROSSI77 the only status PAC enjoys now is a certain reverence that comes with death, especially a tragic one as his. When Nas dies, his status will go a notch further. But I love Pac!! His rap is a work of a performance artist, since he went to an arts school.
NAS IS THE GOAT and thats crazy to say... Im 43yrs old and Illmatic "changed my life" as they say. To have KDIII ruling right now is hella sureal...cant imagine what its like for Nas who is pushing 50!
Yoooo!! When Trevor ask him what was his favorite movie I said Beat Street before he said it. 🔥💪🏼 I’ve watched Beat Street like 100 time and don’t get tired at all of watching that classic HipHop movie. Respect ✊ to Nas
I so dig the fact he can talk about Jay-Z in a positive way and laugh at it. I wish this generation can learn from this. I am so glad I came from this time line and glad I was in one of his video " You Can Hate Me Now"
with this album he solidified that he is the goat, listening to it it took me back the rap era of late 90s/2000s, that classic nas NY feel. every track is amazing, no skipping on this album, the beats and the lyrics are incredible.
I’m considered Ole school and I caught his concert in Denver. I was out done at his concert. He’s off the chart. Love his person Mile high dive. I’m a loyal fan👍🎶
We barely see Nas doing interviews. I am so happy to see him smiling and thriving!
Big up Nas !
He hasn't aged too!

Facts!!!!
this four album run has been incredible
It's 6 now
I love how nas brings up hit boy in every platform he gets, man that's type of bond I need with my groupies
Although NAS is GOAT, I feel like HitBoy inspires him. He's giving Hit his flowers while he can smell them.
Nas is forever the street poet/historian of hip-hop. Just saw him in concert recently. Proud New Yorker.
How sicc was it?
That must've been absolutely amazing! I'm jealous over here...
Last time I saw NAS was with Mary on their tour. I love him. Going to Madison Square Garden in February.
I can't wait until he comes to MSG in February! I'm in there!
I think deep down Nas doesnt like spotlight at all...he is one of the biggest just to remain in the shadow in a way...Like a master Ninja...
I smiled the entire time. Its so rare to see Nas in an interview. I'm sorry I love this man❤
I understand 😊
