@@vjones2828she's a nod to the past we study lady day, sarah ,dinah and ella because of her the young people do pay attention ❤ sampling Nat was amazing #jazz.
What cracks me up is how many people gave jay z so much credit for baring his soul or making personal grown up songs, but Nas has been doing for years!
That last part where Nat King Cole sings his original verse from Unforgettable, and his daughter Natalie is playing it on the piano, that truly epitomizes how unforgettable those 2 legends are. Nas really captured that image of classic golden style with this song
When this came out I was wearing baggy clothes listening to Wayne , Soulja boy and all that other stuff . I remember playing this and not really thinking much of it .Now that I'm older I can really appreciate this. It's timeless.
Presidential rap. I've been saying this is what the king rappers should be on. Not that *DRANK* *DRANK* I'M A BOSS COZ I BE DRAKIN. STOP. A real boss does not clown around like that.
"Colliding with big names(Jay z) that coulda made your career stop... all that and ur man is still here and um still hot " That line just gives me chills. GOAT.
Love Natalie’s scene at the end… she sung the original song with her dad the originator behind her on the green screen like Nas had Queensbridge behind him on the green screen as tribute 👍🏼
Nataile cole was so beautiful i am so glad that nas was the only one rapper that gave ms Nataile cole her flowers before she passed away in 2015 ms Nataile cole had the most beautiful eyes in world
my fav nas song.......wow cant believe it didn't even get 1 mill hit............ guess people are so used to garbage that they cant recognize a good thang. .....love me some nas.
I was listening to Nat King Cole, and I was clawing through my head to figure out 'what's the rap song my dad used to listen to that sampled this?' I finally found it.
Im sure I'm not the only one who feels this...... This music or better yet this era of music and these times were truly golden. I was a late teenager when some of the greatest hits and artists of hiphop existed. The nostalgia runs so deep. I am now 32 years old and I can't even explain what I would give to go back to these days, where music brought people together and you'd meet your significant other through physical interaction and proper communication. But I think the most painful part of listening to old school music is that.........these days will NEVER come back and there is no rewind nor reply button to our lives. So to all of us that lived the best times of your lives during this era. Cheers and God bless!
Albums take me back to them high school days. Exactly what you said is what I still feel when I re listen to these. I’m glad I finally got to experience New York during the winter season, that was my dream in high school 😂🤙🏾
Nas has been my dude since day 1. Him and Chrisette Michelle did it up, on this song. Great collabo..... It makes you think of someone who brought, and continues to bring JOY into your life. We need more rap songs like this!!!
Such a beautiful song.. It takes me back to the illmatic album and era... It takes me back to the 90s... Such a perfect name for this song (can't forget about you)
I love me some Nas, he is so deep that is why he is one of my favorite rappers ever. I still get goose bumps listening to this song and I love the "unforgettable" sample.
That's awesome. Two fantastic artists, so different and sublime in their own right, real ambassadors of music. Listening to both of their music will truly enlighten you. I wish you luck in your further endeavours of discovering geniuses like Nas and NKC.
I'll miss Natalie Cole. Growing up, I thought she was a family member. She and Lou Rawls. :) Thank you for this beautiful collaboration, Nas and Chrisette Michelle.
Nicole Franklin I know and it's such a shame that we lost her so soon and she was a beautiful lady who had the voice of an angel so may her spirit surround us all as she rest in peace.
Still 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥 still 🎧 in 2020 & beyond. This video, the lyrics, & oh yeah the beat. I ❤ it. This by far one of many fav they nailed it Nas, Chrisette Michele, Rip 🙏 Natalie Cole, & her father legend Nat King Cole.
This is a dope song. The first verse is pretty touching. Especially the part about kicking back when you're old. It's almost like he is an old man, wrapping up his career and feelings in the first verse
Looking back at this.. what a goddamn fool I was more than 10 years ago. I didn't really know Nas, nor did I know about Chrisette Michelle. I recently bought Illmatic on vinyl and this video was the beginning of my love for Nas' music. Respect!
Didn't realize so many years has passed. Still dope today. One thing about Nas is his music ages well. It's like he thinks long-term with his artistry.
And I don't wanna keep bringing up the greater times but I'm a dreamer, nostalgic in the state of mind...'Man, they don't make em' like they used to' is what the old heads used to say.
My favorite song on the album, the instrumental sampled from Nat King Cole is so classy and soothing, it makes me feel at peace. And Chrisette’s voice, so vintage and beautiful !
![Nas ft. Amy Winehouse - Cherry Wine (Explicit) [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/6903zFUIxoU/mqdefault.jpg)
This song is never on schedule, but always on time.
This song is a masterpiece.
It’s the Natalie Cole wink at the end for me ❤

I agree everything beat n lyrics
@@vjones2828 Natalie Cole did great here at the end of the video I understand she's gone sometimes I cry because she's someone who made great music 😊
Chrisette's voice is golden as evidenced by her collaborations. The ending in the video still gives me chills...perfect. RIP Natalie Cole
Definitely. She made songs with Nas, Jay Z, and Ghostface Killah.
The end of the song & the end of the video to match the song is like to the point I can’t even imagine or explain it
Rip Nat also
Who says nas ain't the GOAT? This piece is priceless
He aint the goat
@@oleschool2241 You the sheep. Stupidest Hater Ever Emerged Period

Rite on

Seriously!
What cracks me up is how many people gave jay z so much credit for baring his soul or making personal grown up songs, but Nas has been doing for years!
I was buzzilled by that too.... Like what the fuck!!!
Jay has been out longer than Nas.
@@thembabloemfontein4807 Jay Z has been out longer than Nas, like what the fuck!!!
Shockzone I love both of these cats. But Jay has been out since Big Daddy Kane, believe it or not.
@@HypnoticHollywood he didn't really start become popping till the 90s though
Chrisette Michelle has such a beautiful voice I loved that old sound
Absolutely

“There comes a time in your life when you wanna relax, probably when you’re old perhaps”
Easily one of the most underrated songs by nas and in hip hop in general.
This is actually a fantastic song. No bullshit. Absolute style, class, truth. Absolute classic.
Presidential rap. I've been saying this is what the king rappers should be on.
Not that *DRANK* *DRANK* I'M A BOSS COZ I BE DRAKIN.
STOP. A real boss does not clown around like that.
+RD RD Sure buddy.
Revit Iligo yep
Not a single cuss word in this track. 💯
Without doubt one of my fave tunes fullstop. Always put me in a positive rappin' along to this.
"Colliding with big names(Jay z) that coulda made your career stop... all that and ur man is still here and um still hot " That line just gives me chills. GOAT.
He probably talking about pac and biggie too
@@tilwanna808150 cent too
This joint just shows how NAS is and forever will be miles ahead of any MC when it comes to lyrics, metaphors and story telling.
check MF DOOM but yes Nas is great too
@@Chimpfinga DOOM is great the best wordsmith I would say but he doesn’t has the varieties and diversity Nas has...
I forgot how dope these verses were .. I almost felt a tear drop 🥲
Love Natalie’s scene at the end… she sung the original song with her dad the originator behind her on the green screen like Nas had Queensbridge behind him on the green screen as tribute 👍🏼
Nas got some real meaningful lyrics, and Chrisette Michelle's voice is just beautiful. 5 Stars...
That time flew by, this used to be my shit, such a intelligent song, nas hands down a legend
Nataile cole was so beautiful i am so glad that nas was the only one rapper that gave ms Nataile cole her flowers before she passed away in 2015 ms Nataile cole had the most beautiful eyes in world
Somewhere down the road,this will be my retirement song. Timeless classic
DEFINITELY!
omg you too. I said that for me!
Such a classy song
"Somethings are forever and somethings are not" Nas is the man and this track is HOT
+TheDiamondMafia

Right on
Absolutely correct

It's hard to pick a favorite Nas song but this one is high on the list.
It's at a mil now
First and only time I’ve heard “with whom” used in hip hop. Nas is a distinguished gentleman! 💯😎
I was listening to Nat King Cole, and I was clawing through my head to figure out 'what's the rap song my dad used to listen to that sampled this?'
I finally found it.
Saw this on fuse and couldn't find it for years. Finally just listen to every song on every album. It was for the best I guess haha
RIP Natalie. I bumped this cut so many times.
Me too!

Beautiful voice , timeless , they sound great together,
I agree because Nas is amazing with his lyricism.

This song makes me wish I was a child again to relive those golden moments. Beautiful times.
It’s safe to say that this is one of the greatest songs and song concepts ever in hip hop.
Salute to the GOAT
NAS is Nostalgic, Awesome and Sensational!
Nas has been my dude since day 1. Him and Chrisette Michelle did it up, on this song. Great collabo..... It makes you think of someone who brought, and continues to bring JOY into your life. We need more rap songs like this!!!

This song is so luxurious and nostalgic but yet so hard...
The emperor of ocean park made me listen to this again!!! Nas is the goat!!
"These streets hold my deepest days, this hood taught me golden ways.." Gotta love Chrisette Michelle's oldschool way of singing on this!
Not on schedule, but always on time... Best quote ever... (Sniffs)
Goosebumps at the end

Agreed!
I'm feeling everything about this song. Nas' lyrics, Chrisette's vocals, and Will I am's brilliant production
I REALLY almost felt a tear drop 😢....NAS killed this one!!!!!!!
chrisette has one of the best studio voices i've heard in ....forever. contemporary and classic... i hope it can translate into a great solo talent..
sadly it didn’t. smh 😢
Still hits , it really takes you back !
I remember back in middle school I would turn on MTV in the morning and see this music video. Oh the good old days...
My great grandma would be bobbing to this 💯
One of my all time favorite songs 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I always have to play this back about 4 times every time I need my Nas fix❤
no ad libs.. straight verses.. no overdubs... like rakim.
Nas universal poet nuff said.
I absolutely Love this song! Nothing but good vibes from it.
Beautiful and nostalgic.Memorable.Nas is one of Hip Hop,s greatest
Such a beautiful song.. It takes me back to the illmatic album and era... It takes me back to the 90s... Such a perfect name for this song (can't forget about you)

this dude never ceases to inspire..great song
Listening to this 11years later..it's never going to get old for me.. great song
It's crazy how some music is completely timeless compared to easy hits you see more and more getting produced nowadays. Great song indeed
Everything about this song is on point
Magnificent tune indeed
Love it,very classy N is definitely unforgettable.
Rite on
just one of my favorite songs, ever
The first song that introduced me to: Nas and Nat King Cole.
That's awesome. Two fantastic artists, so different and sublime in their own right, real ambassadors of music. Listening to both of their music will truly enlighten you. I wish you luck in your further endeavours of discovering geniuses like Nas and NKC.
That last verse is the truth!
heard this for the first time yesterday on the radio, and fell in love with the beat.
Some things are forever, some things are not. 🔥🔥
This is the moment I feel in love with Chrisette voice
I'll miss Natalie Cole. Growing up, I thought she was a family member. She and Lou Rawls. :) Thank you for this beautiful collaboration, Nas and Chrisette Michelle.
Nicole Franklin I know and it's such a shame that we lost her so soon and she was a beautiful lady who had the voice of an angel so may her spirit surround us all as she rest in peace.
Nicole Franklin That was cool what Natalie did to nas in the end .
Im exited for the person who will stumble across nas whole catalogue 150 years from now...
Concepts, Creativity, and of course, Lyrics. Reflection, Nostalgia, Deep Thought. Everything.
NAS… with a quiet banger!!!! You are killing them son❤
Nas always got them songs that makes you think 💯! This is one of my favorites by him
RIP Natalie. Underrated NaS joint. Perfect record.
timeless.. aww Natalie at the end gives me even more chills now.. rest in peace.
I know right I just started crying I forgot she appeared in the end of the video.
+Lateshia Childs yesss.. we've lost so many greats recently.. sad, indeed.
It's crazy I was just listening to Nat Cole in the car with my uber driver. Now I'm hearing this song. Such a classic song from the goat
Still 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥 still 🎧 in 2020 & beyond. This video, the lyrics, & oh yeah the beat. I ❤ it.
This by far one of many fav they nailed it Nas, Chrisette Michele, Rip 🙏 Natalie Cole, & her father legend Nat King Cole.
This is a dope song. The first verse is pretty touching. Especially the part about kicking back when you're old.
It's almost like he is an old man, wrapping up his career and feelings in the first verse
This song is so nostalgic in itself, in my opinion, this is probably one of Nas' best songs.
An absolute classic... he has some great songs but this one sticks out more than any other. Sick Song
"Heinous crimes help record sales more than creative lines."
Ain't that the truth.
Looking back at this.. what a goddamn fool I was more than 10 years ago. I didn't really know Nas, nor did I know about Chrisette Michelle. I recently bought Illmatic on vinyl and this video was the beginning of my love for Nas' music. Respect!
Man I almost felt a tear drop 💯
Nas is the greatest hip hop storyteller EVER after Slick Rick of course.
can't forget about Scarface
Nas is way better
@@Rolla650 its a tie
HumanNature1117 K rino too
Yes you are right after Slick Rick
King Nas
Wow I forgot about this song and I used to love it. Omg
Same girl up at 420am trying to remember the name of this song it was literally my favorite when it came out I was 13 time flys
two queens right there listening to Nas
Didn't realize so many years has passed. Still dope today. One thing about Nas is his music ages well. It's like he thinks long-term with his artistry.
Nas The Legend and Natalie "Queen" Cole
For me one of Nas best song and most underrated song 🎵
I love the hook the 20's feel she does this era justice!!
That's a beautiful song what an awesome collab ... this right here classic.
This song is perfect during the Christmas season
This is when I fell in love w/ Chrisette. Her voice is beautiful.
And I don't wanna keep bringing up the greater times but I'm a dreamer, nostalgic in the state of mind...'Man, they don't make em' like they used to' is what the old heads used to say.
goosebumps at the very end.
