either way, Naz showed respect to pac by stopping his concert and giving a moment of silence. that takes a big man. I'm 2pac 100, but that was cool of this dude.
why is it so hard to believe nas is over the beef? its been over 20 years, I genuinely believe nas respects pac and he thinks of him as an amazing artist. i love nas for that
Why do people find it hard to believe Nas and Pac squashed their beef. The whole beef was just a misunderstanding. Nas never took shots at 2pac, but 2pac thought he did. Hell even Young Noble said that Nas and 2pac squashed their beef.
Because he's lying. 2pac wanted blood, it wasnt some simple misunderstsnding. Nas was one of my favorite rappers but he is completely full of sht and sold out.
LD51 Young Noble even said that Pac and Nas squashed their beef with each other a few days before Pac was shot. Hell even Snoop Dogg said in one interview that Nas had a bunch of guys with him when he squashed that shit with Pac. You telling me Nas held both of them at gunpoint to lie for him? Come on, man.
What? Snoop is a coward, he turned his back on Pac when he needed him the most. Thats not opinion, thats a fact. As for Noble, Pac said before he died ALL his friends and family turned their back on him, he said himself he cant trust NOBODY. So why the fck would I listen to anything any of these fck boys say postmortem?
nas took a couple shots at tupac after he died which was some coward shit him and mob deep made a song together u can RUclips it or Google it was like a part 2 to that one shit mob deep has and they was like thug life is mine
nas tried to copy pacs style and he also used 2pacs beats, that's one of the reason why pac got mad, so then pac made troublesome 96 and ripped nas apart
jordan arellano lol didn’t notice this was 5 years ago damn! And you still reacting? Big props to you, you still listen to these 2 legends or did you turn into a muble fan that listen to sixnine/lil pump
Legend Arti I mean I still have classics always in rotation that’ll never change, but I’ve also got an ear out for more modern rap that stands out and makes waves. Currently I think Denzel Curry is one of the hardest out right now and at times is a really solid lyricist. Also J.I.D is can go at Eminem levels of fast spitting lines with a lot of charisma kinda like Wayne’s older stuff, again another great lyricist. Just some recommendations of more contemporary rappers that I think stand out among the crowd and do their own thing.
It´s not every day you get to interview a living legend... Not saying he HAD to be all on his nutsack, but giving props where it´s due is something that comes with talking to a dude like Nas.
Fact: Nas is a better lyricist than 2Pac. (creative bars) Fact: 2pac made more meaningful songs than Nas. (This is close now. Pac died at 25yrs old Nas is 40+) Fact: Nas influenced many artist of that time. (even influenced pac to write "me and my girlfriend" which influenced jayz to write the remake with Beyonce years later) Fact: 2pac has NOW influenced more artist than Nas. (The younger artist) Fact: They both loved/love black people and our progression as a community. Fact: We love them both. ✌
+Chris Dodges the first "fact" is opinionated. the second "fact" is also opinionated. But one true fact is, we are all seemingly blind to the truth, even those of us who seem to think we know it. We are really under a control system, and we will never take control of our own path. We will let these people lead us to hell.
Now? I was listening to you cause you sounded smart, but 2pac deff influenced more people if not he still did. Never underestimate the young hip hop youth.
I'm so impressed by Nas , he's so calm and cool , seems to never get upset, almost like Bob Marley . He even had the vision to see that something was going on with the great Tupac . I guess God gives all messengers a different role . Blessed to Pac and Nas
There's 3 younger pastors who claim they dreamed Tupac is not in heaven, nor is. DMX Or others like Kobi. It's strange they all saw the same thing God told me war is pending In the USA, and I want Those black youngsters to get Saved. They know nothing and God says they will die with Lack of knowledge. Please believe the book.
Pac & Nas are both Poets, which means they reign supreme over many other Rappers. There's a difference! Pac & Nas are True Writers (Poets); meaning, they can Poet about anything. However, a rapper can only rap about money, hoes, and clothes and their topics are extremely limited. Biggie was talented, but he was NOT a Poet, he was a Rapper. Nas & Pac are may favorite poets, but Pac in my opinion was a better Poet because of his status and the many many songs he made covering a wider range of topics. salute to all. Son of Kush
+Michael A. Kush I agree! Add Mos Def to that list of poets, as well as Canibus (who is on another level, cosmically, philosophically, politically, experimentally, and with deep levels of literary discernment and understanding, as well as highly intellectually). I could name others, but will leave it right there. Good thoughts, Michael!
Derrick Tyson I was definitely going to add Canibus to the list. His poetry is extraordinary, so is Mos Def. I used to read Canibus lyrics over and over and it was crazy how he could rap about metaphysics, science, nature, and street all combined in one song; again proving he is a true poet. Mos Def is also one so I agree with you bro!
2pac and nas were both poets so pac rapped about life and the struggles.and nas raps about life and does biographies and history also pac raps a little history.both 2 of the greatest lyricist of all time.
You clearly don't listen to Nas. He raps about way more street shit than Tupac ever did. Tupac was all bravado and thuggery bit it was mostly from his perspective about how he felt. Nas raps about the hood.
Nas is the biggest in story-telling / imaginative speaker in a period of time that this was not common like a painter on a canvas like a realityprogramme with words before there where reality programme’s on television. The best (underrated) lyricist in my opnion is still Black Thought.
@@lichtdoosI agree. 2pacalypse Now release in 1991 years before Illmatic with some of the most hard hitting and prolific, explicitly emotional stories in music history till this day, though.
@@walbizures9002 impressive and all but Nas was 16 years old crafting debatably the best rap album ever. Not a single Pac album touches Illmatic and Nas in general is certainly at least on par with Pac in terms of storytelling ability. Pac could only imagine being able to make I Gave You Power
Nas should do a autobiography like Prodigy did he could talk it from his point of view that will be fire I want to hear all the Tupac stories Mobb Deep stories Queensbridge stories
I have never been a big Nas fan but I have respected his gift and I respect how he handled the question about Pac. he could have came any way with it but he kept it calm and casual. That's G right there!!
I can only imagine what nas and pac would’ve created in the studio together if pac was alive today. Two poetic geniuses. Just take a moment of silence and imagine......😌🤦🏽♂️
I met Tupac here in Oakland before the deathrow days i yelled out ...tupac....he came over gave a pound and talked for a minute....he was hella cool man...i never thought he would become hip hop royalty....Rip homey
I grew up in the Midwest with all Westcoast & Midwest hip hop as a child & preteen , I didn't listen to any NY or east coast rap back then but I always would see NaS first 4 album covers in stores on the racks & its exactly what got me to actually want to start listening to his music back in 01' & I instantly bought his 5th album "Stillmatic" the week it was first released in stores & I instantly loved that album & loved it's album cover just as much even though it was different than the 4 album covers before it💯 I swear that album was the best 14$ I ever spent in my entire life but i never new I was blindly buying a actual certified masterpiece at that point in time cuz it was just released & plus I was only about 14 years old at that time but just like NaS said he is , I also always been obsessed with album covers & it's also what would end up making me talk myself into blindly buying a new album CD even if I never heard any songs from it yet💯
2pac is the ONLY rap artist that stands a chance to still be remembered in 100 years... that takes IMPACT, and Pac had more impact during his short life than any other rap artist in history, including Nas...
Nas is the most underrated and forgotten best hip hop artist of all time. I grew up on him and mobb deep. It was written is one of the best if not the best album of all time. He paved the way for all alot of ppl who are still recognized in the game. It's a shame hes not in a better spotlight seeing how hes done so much for the hip hop business.
Serch's" Back 2 the grill again " or Main Source's "Live at the BBQ ". 16 Year old boy who just flipped lyricysm and flo to a new dimension and he changed rap forever.
This interviewer was excellent. These radio interviews are usually so formulaic and inauthentic in their questions due to time constraints, but the dude really made the most with his time and is a true fan and the conversation flowed. Props
He’s a fucking legend. He’s been doing his job for ever. Y’all just don’t get it. He’s even in GTA. Y’all don’t know shit. He’s one of the best interviewers around.
NAS a real one It takes a real dude to understand the brother feeling or his mind state at that time just to wonder it's a good thing -NAS To be humble to be positive all for that.
I agree what Nas is saying. I saw Behind The Music documentary with him and he talk to 2Pac about dissed him back and forth. Nas did talk to Pac at the 1996 MTV VMAs before he died. Pac said "I'm sorry I dissed on my records and I will deleted it". Nas said, "How you gonna do that"? And 2Pac said "Come meet me in Vegas". Afterwards, meeting with 2Pac in Las Vegas was never happen. So after Pac/Biggie died, Nas was the hip hop hero who changed people's lives forever.
***** To be honest, Nas is my favorite artist in my times along with Cube, Scarface, Big L, AZ. He changed my live and become my inspirational hero ever since. I can see what's your opinion about it but I got to keep him on my 'MC's of All Time' list. Illmatic is still the greatest album of all time in hip hop. Period! I believe that Nas didn't lost his edge so far. He does have something to rap about. No complaints. Otherwise, Nas is the greatest!!
Be serious , Nas is just flesh and can change no man but Approach Christ Jesus for himself if he is that smart. You must keep yourself from Not being. Un comfortable after Time here. Christ talks about the pit and it's scary , and I want blacks to escape that. They have been thru too much here with that Slave rooted world. They need Comfort. I saw all these White people sleeping on City busses when I stepped On, meaning they will feel A hard time and have no where to go , all will. Suffer who Jesus leaves here. Iran ain't scared they have Weapons , I saw it in a dream And no one will rap ever again. They won't want too.. China will take the stage, And Russia will ride with them. Where they fail is when they try to beat Israel out, it can't be Done! That is God's throne room. Whites would not leave The movies and I asked this person who was hard to see why they wood not go home, and they said they have no places, the school lunch Halls were full of lost people. Christ will not turn anyone away who calls him for help.
The thing is that tupac was wayyyy ahead of his time, in a 4/5 year period he just made everything that put him as GOAT status, nas is a straight G full of credits by all him have done, but pac was just unique, voice, lyrics and even the production around him was better (mopreme is god, but johnny j and Daz and dr dre were like the owners of the game) i will respect nas till the day i die, also will respect pac even after my death LOVE YA NAS LOVE YA PAC❤️
snoopdog talked about this in an interview. he was mobbin with PAC when they saw nas rolling deep with straight killers. when PAC walked up to nas all of em where ready to go reaching for there guns but nas winked at em and shook hands with PAC. respect to nas
@@juanangel7002 Tupac told nas that he made a song dissing biggie and when it released to not say anything about it and nas said he had no problems and they shook hands and that was that
Facts. He had a shitload of dirt on biggie some of which he didn't speak on explicitly in his songs. Biggie couldn't say shit cos he knew the truth and Pac was it
@@lubui2583 I love both rappers but Biggie was just so subliminal and that's why everyone gives Pac so much praise because he says shit simple and plan "Fuck Biggie" "I fucked biggie's wife" ppl listening to rap during that time was a bunch of young ppl tryna be gangsta so they loved hearing raw at yo face straight up shit how they heard it in the streets, ain't nobody dissing subliminally in the streets you got beef with someone you saying they name and telling them straight up and that's what Pac was doing and biggie wasn't saying nothing but subliminals only ppl who studies lyrics can catch , that's why ppl ride Pac because he came at you raw , no wordplay just fuck you type shit say what's really on your mind, but pac can get clever let's not forget he was a poet and got on tracks with Big daddy kane himself and kool G Rap labeled Pac the Marvin Gaye of rap and kicked it with Pac
@@lubui2583 , Bruh! Pac has way more material than big, til this day! He stayed in the studio. Big partied way too much. Shiiiiid, he only got 2 1/2 albums. #Overrated #NoGoat
They were going to do a song together and squash the hype, imagine that, Nas and Pac on the same track. Imagine a whole album with just the two of them teamed up, Gods of the throne
skyrone Scipio yes he did.. Lol...Nas Can you tell us/wait..Nas may u ask you/wait..Nas when did you record/ wait..Nas where can I?.. Right.. What do you really want to know😕
2pac had a lot of respect for Nas. I mean if you listen to Nas's song, "I Gave You Power"(on Nas's 2nd album from '96), and then you listen to 2pac's song, "Me and My Girlfriend(on Makaveli album from '96) you can see some similarities.
Nas a true MC. Real MCs listen to music different. His head was bobbing to the beat the entire time. You can even see him mouthing to himself in the beginning. His head spinning on rhymes.
I dunno why some people find it so hard to believe that Nas squashed it with Pac. Like why not? It's not like 2pac and Nas had a REAL STREET beef or anything to that degree. Of course, he's willing to let it go. The beef was only stirred up through word of mouth, rumors, and hearsay. Nas "hardly" goes after rappers first. A line like "fake thug, no love, you get the slugs" from Nas's The Message doesn't even sound like he was talking about 2pac. Why, because the word, thug?? Remember, 2pac did popularize the use of the term, thug, back in the days so artists were bound to use it in their lyrics. It was all just a confusion. Remember too, 2pac had a lot of beef at the time, so paranoia was the cause. Also, he was maturing more in his last days, beginning to break away from grimy ass Death Row and what not.
nas lied and there is plenty of proof to say. so you're research on both side of stories and outsiders looking in and know nas is a liar and very good at pretending. to say nas is better than 2Pac. makes me think rap been dead since Pac left to Cuba. r.I.p. hip hop 1996 is the year
+Kazerous_World lol okay bro. This is my opinion, you have yours. Don't assume I've got my info "ALL" from outsiders. And in fact, if I agree with you, aren't you an outsider as well?? Who knows Nas personally in the comment section to call him a liar? 2pac is a legend no doubt but damn nigga, he's not rap music. He's just a man. Chill out. And I never said Nas was better than Pac or vice versa so I have no idea why you brought that up. But even if I did, why in the hell do you need my opinion to validate and confirm who you think is the best? Sounds like you're Pac dickriding toooo damn much on some Stan shit.
+Tyler Krym different story. listen to the first story and then follow up on the beefs of pacs and how this happened and to the point how and what came about on that day. you'll know who b.s. and who was paid to bs
Apart from being among the greatest rappers to ever live it's not hard to tell the man smart and street wise his life history and longevity in the game fully explains it.
The first minute and a half of this video is everything I have ever wanted in my life wanted to tell Nas. Man so much love to the radio host he told nas what I always wish he could hear from a fan in that first minute and a half.
Nas's version of this story is close to Hussein Fatal's version except for one thing. Fatal said Nas only had 3 homeboys with him and Pac was like 50 deep with guns and stuff. Nas is saying they were both deep. Somebody is lying lol...
Darius H Nasia didn't want every body to know he was Lite, BC if it would've set off, it wouldn't be a winner.. FATALITY.. WORD.. WHO? LET THE FANS DECIDE😵
I like this young king he really pay attention to his father his father was deep and had a lot of knowlege and wisdom that he pass on too his son.Sometimes we may think our elders dont know what they are talking about but history repeats itself the game is just played different.
Why is Snoop Dogg’s version completely different from Nas’s version? 🤔 I watched “Snoop Dogg: Tupac confronts NAS in New York” on RUclips then I watched this one
+pimpmastaa101 pac never had beef with nas. in fact, when he was working on "all eyes on me" , the outsidas approach pac on working with nas. they were huge fans. and that is correct in some way. pac loved it was written. i can't say he was listening to it the day he was in vegas but it has been documented that he loved that album. this is why i never liked pac during that whole era when he was with death row. that wasn't him. in fact, that night he was in vegas, he was supposed to do a song with nas. yes, after the night, him and nas were gonna be in the studio working on a record together
Nas could’ve had Tupac killed anytime he was on the East Coast in the early 90’s. He easily had a hundred loyal gunnas around him at all times. He didn’t need to make beef, where there wasn’t any. And that’s something the West Coast didn’t understand till a couple years later. Nas is a living legend from an era of rap that all of us, all ages, can appreciate. Respect

I met Tupac here in Oakland before the deathrow days i yelled out ...tupac....he came over gave a pound and talked for a minute....he was hella cool man...i never thought he would become hip hop royalty....Rip homey
Nas is one of the most underrated lyricists. He's a very intelligent and respectable dude.
Bro he's almost universally considered one of the best rappers ever
@@schematicb5393 no he isn't.
@@schematicb5393 i sure hope not. This wannabe 2pac is not even close to the top
@@roccovb5377 bro said wannabe
I grew up in the Midwest with all Westcoast & Midwest hip hop as a child & preteen , I didn't listen to any NY or east coast rap back then but I always would see NaS first 4 album covers in stores on the racks & its exactly what got me to actually want to start listening to his music back in 01' & I instantly bought his 5th album "Stillmatic" the week it was first released in stores & I instantly loved that album & loved it's album cover just as much even though it was different than the 4 album covers before it💯 I swear that album was the best 14$ I ever spent in my entire life but i never new I was blindly buying a actual certified masterpiece at that point in time cuz it was just released & plus I was only about 14 years old at that time but just like NaS said he is , I also always been obsessed with album covers & it's also what would end up making me talk myself into blindly buying a new album CD even if I never heard any songs from it yet💯
nas first 3 albums were amazing.
nas, please release an autobiography, bro
he did its called time is illmatic but its more a documentary of the album
yeah, i know, but i mean a book, nahm'saying?
yea i would buy it if he made a book
True Og and pioneer in the game. Shouts out in to Nas.
enricco gabriel Nas has a documentary on illmatic
2pac is the ONLY rap artist that stands a chance to still be remembered in 100 years... that takes IMPACT, and Pac had more impact during his short life than any other rap artist in history, including Nas...
Facts, but Eminem and Nas have a shot too, alongside Jay Z.
Pac will always be face of hip hop and much more but mad lyrical ability is undeniable
Nas is the most underrated and forgotten best hip hop artist of all time. I grew up on him and mobb deep. It was written is one of the best if not the best album of all time. He paved the way for all alot of ppl who are still recognized in the game. It's a shame hes not in a better spotlight seeing how hes done so much for the hip hop business.
He's not underrated. People consistently put him in their top 5-10 all time greatest rappers. And Illmatic is ALWAYS ranked as a all time great album.
@@jonathanblaze1648 you missed the point. Read my comment again my boy maybe you'll understand it better. Sometimes you can't fix stupid
@@jonathanblaze1648Under rated? 🤔
Ive been a Nas supporter n #1fan since Halftime from the movie Zebrahead in '91..
He stay dropping jewels, i so love him
Serch's" Back 2 the grill again " or Main Source's "Live at the BBQ ". 16 Year old boy who just flipped lyricysm and flo to a new dimension and he changed rap forever.
I love how he finds the rhythm of when people are speaking to him
Man... Dj, no disrespect man, but you talk a lot. You need to give your guests the floor man. #justsaying
This interviewer was excellent. These radio interviews are usually so formulaic and inauthentic in their questions due to time constraints, but the dude really made the most with his time and is a true fan and the conversation flowed. Props
This interviewer is the worst..... Let Nas speak.... Stop asking a question and answering it for him.....
Ikr
He’s a fucking legend. He’s been doing his job for ever. Y’all just don’t get it. He’s even in GTA. Y’all don’t know shit. He’s one of the best interviewers around.
@@Sergio-fu7mv his inner fanboy just went off a lil too much tho
Finally, someone feels the way I felt about the Nas Lost Tapes, that album is incredible
Nas looks the same in 1999, 2006 and 2019.
NAS a real one It takes a real dude to understand the brother feeling or his mind state at that time just to wonder it's a good thing -NAS To be humble to be positive all for that.
I agree what Nas is saying. I saw Behind The Music documentary with him and he talk to 2Pac about dissed him back and forth. Nas did talk to Pac at the 1996 MTV VMAs before he died. Pac said "I'm sorry I dissed on my records and I will deleted it".
Nas said, "How you gonna do that"?
And 2Pac said "Come meet me in Vegas".
Afterwards, meeting with 2Pac in Las Vegas was never happen.
So after Pac/Biggie died, Nas was the hip hop hero who changed people's lives forever.
Makaveli SD Brother, Nas was way more intellectual in his own prime. So, Nas is still the greatest.
***** To be honest, Nas is my favorite artist in my times along with Cube, Scarface, Big L, AZ. He changed my live and become my inspirational hero ever since. I can see what's your opinion about it but I got to keep him on my 'MC's of All Time' list. Illmatic is still the greatest album of all time in hip hop. Period! I believe that Nas didn't lost his edge so far. He does have something to rap about. No complaints. Otherwise, Nas is the greatest!!
Be serious , Nas is just flesh and can change no man but
Approach Christ Jesus for himself if he is that smart.
You must keep yourself from
Not being. Un comfortable after
Time here.
Christ talks about the pit and it's scary , and I want blacks to escape that. They have been thru too much here with that
Slave rooted world. They need
Comfort. I saw all these
White people sleeping on
City busses when I stepped
On, meaning they will feel
A hard time and have no where to go , all will. Suffer who Jesus leaves here.
Iran ain't scared they have
Weapons , I saw it in a dream
And no one will rap ever again.
They won't want too..
China will take the stage,
And Russia will ride with them.
Where they fail is when they try to beat Israel out, it can't be
Done! That is God's throne room. Whites would not leave
The movies and I asked this person who was hard to see why they wood not go home, and they said they have no places, the school lunch
Halls were full of lost people.
Christ will not turn anyone away who calls him for help.
The thing is that tupac was wayyyy ahead of his time, in a 4/5 year period he just made everything that put him as GOAT status, nas is a straight G full of credits by all him have done, but pac was just unique, voice, lyrics and even the production around him was better (mopreme is god, but johnny j and Daz and dr dre were like the owners of the game) i will respect nas till the day i die, also will respect pac even after my death
LOVE YA NAS
LOVE YA PAC❤️
"It was Written" is my favorite Nas album. I love it, too.
pac on the mic was like jordan on the court, giving out home work.
snoopdog talked about this in an interview. he was mobbin with PAC when they saw nas rolling deep with straight killers. when PAC walked up to nas all of em where ready to go reaching for there guns but nas winked at em and shook hands with PAC. respect to nas
They both were deep. Pac had 50 jersey killers with him plus Mob Pirus from death row ,and they were all strapped. Snoop is an idiot.
Snoop wasn't even there. People have called his lying ass out for that.
@@juanangel7002 Tupac told nas that he made a song dissing biggie and when it released to not say anything about it and nas said he had no problems and they shook hands and that was that
Nas is the humble ass man and a solid mc
You can see Nas is a sharp dude just by looking in his eyes.
Sharp?
Yep
Best of all time ranked:
1. Tupac
2. Bone Thugs & Harmony
3. Nas
Tupac was a threat to everyone...everyone wanted BIG as king of HIP HOP and Tupac crushed Biggy effortlessly...he is the guy who everybody feared
Exactly
Facts. He had a shitload of dirt on biggie some of which he didn't speak on explicitly in his songs. Biggie couldn't say shit cos he knew the truth and Pac was it
he didn't crush big. pac could never be on bigs level lyrically.
@@lubui2583 I love both rappers but Biggie was just so subliminal and that's why everyone gives Pac so much praise because he says shit simple and plan "Fuck Biggie" "I fucked biggie's wife" ppl listening to rap during that time was a bunch of young ppl tryna be gangsta so they loved hearing raw at yo face straight up shit how they heard it in the streets, ain't nobody dissing subliminally in the streets you got beef with someone you saying they name and telling them straight up and that's what Pac was doing and biggie wasn't saying nothing but subliminals only ppl who studies lyrics can catch , that's why ppl ride Pac because he came at you raw , no wordplay just fuck you type shit say what's really on your mind, but pac can get clever let's not forget he was a poet and got on tracks with Big daddy kane himself and kool G Rap labeled Pac the Marvin Gaye of rap and kicked it with Pac
@@lubui2583 , Bruh! Pac has way more material than big, til this day! He stayed in the studio. Big partied way too much. Shiiiiid, he only got 2 1/2 albums.
#Overrated
#NoGoat
I feel like pac squashed the beef so he could have nas join one nation
Facts because he even said he liked Nas but at the time he thought Nas was rolling with Bad Boy
+Aaron Lewis and he thought he dissed him in the message
I can't believe Jay and Nas haven't done any type of joint album together
There's a reason why Nas & Jay-z aren't dead.
Exactly bro lol
Why's that inform us
You're glowing
@@PHAY305 your simp'n
@@ftniceberg874 you unleash your nitwittedness on here to gain what...for clout? I wasn't even talking to you
i agree it was written was my most favorite album...lost tapes is one of my top fav albums as well
I got the upmost respect for nas compared to any other living rapper til this day...
They were going to do a song together and squash the hype, imagine that, Nas and Pac on the same track. Imagine a whole album with just the two of them teamed up, Gods of the throne
This interviewer is actually good ! He asks real ass questions!
This is not a Good interview, the hosts talks to much..
Imagine, Nas and Pac on the Same Track... 🔥🔥🔥
Thug Mansion
And imagine throw Vanilla ace
Didn't he ask Nas 1000 questions all at the same time? Maybe I am hearing things.
He did but he was so excited he never let the man finish!
awesome...
skyrone Scipio yes he did.. Lol...Nas Can you tell us/wait..Nas may u ask you/wait..Nas when did you record/ wait..Nas where can I?.. Right.. What do you really want to know😕
I swear im watching like "is this Julio G from Radio Los Santos?" Then it is haha.
Nas is real, I met Nas before, he is a cool dude, and a trend setter, g'd bless this brother
"If you want to get into the rap game...it's not easy." If only Nas knew 4 years in the future
Has he got music playing in those headphones lol
Gaz C Hahahhaahah yeah he can't stop moving, it even embarass me
Ikr! I already get butterflies with anxiety about the Half man half amazing 😂
It makes me nervous😂😂
Sounds like California love, if you listen to that beat
Hip hop movements, only rappers understand. Its a vibe💪💪
Anybody tupac ever dissed n is still living I bet they cherish the fact that they was even a name for him to Diss, they loved it💯👌🏾
Nas is incredible, the dude who is interviewing him is actually so talkitive like a fan
Yes he's mad annoying
2pac had a lot of respect for Nas. I mean if you listen to Nas's song, "I Gave You Power"(on Nas's 2nd album from '96), and then you listen to 2pac's song, "Me and My Girlfriend(on Makaveli album from '96) you can see some similarities.
Nas a true MC. Real MCs listen to music different. His head was bobbing to the beat the entire time. You can even see him mouthing to himself in the beginning. His head spinning on rhymes.
I dunno why some people find it so hard to believe that Nas squashed it with Pac. Like why not? It's not like 2pac and Nas had a REAL STREET beef or anything to that degree. Of course, he's willing to let it go. The beef was only stirred up through word of mouth, rumors, and hearsay. Nas "hardly" goes after rappers first. A line like "fake thug, no love, you get the slugs" from Nas's The Message doesn't even sound like he was talking about 2pac. Why, because the word, thug?? Remember, 2pac did popularize the use of the term, thug, back in the days so artists were bound to use it in their lyrics. It was all just a confusion. Remember too, 2pac had a lot of beef at the time, so paranoia was the cause. Also, he was maturing more in his last days, beginning to break away from grimy ass Death Row and what not.
nas lied and there is plenty of proof to say. so you're research on both side of stories and outsiders looking in and know nas is a liar and very good at pretending. to say nas is better than 2Pac. makes me think rap been dead since Pac left to Cuba. r.I.p. hip hop 1996 is the year
+Kazerous_World lol okay bro. This is my opinion, you have yours. Don't assume I've got my info "ALL" from outsiders. And in fact, if I agree with you, aren't you an outsider as well?? Who knows Nas personally in the comment section to call him a liar? 2pac is a legend no doubt but damn nigga, he's not rap music. He's just a man. Chill out. And I never said Nas was better than Pac or vice versa so I have no idea why you brought that up. But even if I did, why in the hell do you need my opinion to validate and confirm who you think is the best? Sounds like you're Pac dickriding toooo damn much on some Stan shit.
Nigga deleted his second reply lol
+Curty Langston yeah because no point. when you get sad about opinion being shattered. it comes with the territory of discussion. but you know
+Tyler Krym different story. listen to the first story and then follow up on the beefs of pacs and how this happened and to the point how and what came about on that day. you'll know who b.s. and who was paid to bs
Apart from being among the greatest rappers to ever live it's not hard to tell the man smart and street wise his life history and longevity in the game fully explains it.
The lost tapes is a great album. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.
Ether humbled Jay-Z
For about 2 minutes....
The most respected and feared MC in the game 💪🏿👦🏿🗣👊🏿🙏🏿
The first minute and a half of this video is everything I have ever wanted in my life wanted to tell Nas. Man so much love to the radio host he told nas what I always wish he could hear from a fan in that first minute and a half.
Thank You God for making Nas ageless.
The lost tapes was originally a mix tape that came out right before Nastradamus.
Props for bringing up the Lost Tapes, GREAT ALBUM!!!!
And NAS, please get on that book playboy, we only have so long on this planet
Nas's version of this story is close to Hussein Fatal's version except for one thing. Fatal said Nas only had 3 homeboys with him and Pac was like 50 deep with guns and stuff. Nas is saying they were both deep. Somebody is lying lol...
Darius H Nasia didn't want every body to know he was Lite, BC if it would've set off, it wouldn't be a winner.. FATALITY.. WORD.. WHO? LET THE FANS DECIDE😵
I would've loved to see Pac and Nas do a track together.
“Thugz Mansion” on God’s Son
That was posthumous so it ain't really a joint
I like this young king he really pay attention to his father his father was deep and had a lot of knowlege and wisdom that he pass on too his son.Sometimes we may think our elders dont know what they are talking about but history repeats itself the game is just played different.
That's the dj on Los santos fm in GTA SA
no its not
PAC & Nas 🔥
Nas is my number one favorite rapper since I heard him in 1991 I was in high school. Hiphop forever
One of my fav interviews! It’s 2022 and he’s still at the top of his game! It’s crazy! His shit with snoop 🔥🔥🔥
Why is Snoop Dogg’s version completely different from Nas’s version? 🤔 I watched “Snoop Dogg: Tupac confronts NAS in New York” on RUclips then I watched this one
He met him more than once
Cause they always lying lol
Nas the greatest to ever touch the mic untouchable aint no debate.
Here's a little trivia for yall, When Pac went to Vegas he was listening to It Was Written.
Really?
+pimpmastaa101 pac never had beef with nas. in fact, when he was working on "all eyes on me" , the outsidas approach pac on working with nas. they were huge fans. and that is correct in some way. pac loved it was written. i can't say he was listening to it the day he was in vegas but it has been documented that he loved that album. this is why i never liked pac during that whole era when he was with death row. that wasn't him. in fact, that night he was in vegas, he was supposed to do a song with nas. yes, after the night, him and nas were gonna be in the studio working on a record together
He still looks like that 17 year old kid on the cover of illmatic
Dont you mean it was written? Nas has a child picture on illmatic
@@poetofthekill2571 lmao yes you're right. If I were any more stubborn I would stick to my original statement like "yeah that's what I meant"
@@Jsmitt716 im not coming at chu just for the next person who doesnt know
@@poetofthekill2571 I hear u, I wasnt thinking that u were I was just making a poorly crafted joke
Nas too calm .....He never gets old
Midnight watchin a random nas interview, guess it's better than watching Instagram memes
The real deal . Legend. GOAT. Other rappers just jealous
Nas could’ve had Tupac killed anytime he was on the East Coast in the early 90’s. He easily had a hundred loyal gunnas around him at all times. He didn’t need to make beef, where there wasn’t any. And that’s something the West Coast didn’t understand till a couple years later. Nas is a living legend from an era of rap that all of us, all ages, can appreciate. Respect
Dude is just on his nuts the whole interview
😂😂😂😂😂
LOVE YOU NAS! FOREVER REPRESENTING QUEENS! 🥂
Amazing! Never heard this interview before!! ✌🏾
Damn thats julio g from gta sa niqqa
