I definitely feel you Dxnzo 13 years ago when I was 16 this changed my life. While everyone was snapping I was listening to Nas and I’d show my friends but they just wanted to wear tall tees and dance 😂😂
Nas doesn't have a flow IMO. He's got lyrics though. Big and Jay Z have flow. Pac had the ability to capture an emotion on record and make you feel it. Just compare the feelings you get when you listen to I Gave you Power by Nas vs Me and My girlfriend by 2Pac. Both songs about a gun but both give off a different energy.
Nas structure is randomly thought out. In this skill, even Big L surpasses it it's just that he wasn't given time to mature it. I prefer a dude to be a master of a skill in the craft than a jack of all trades like Nas is. That's why Pac and Biggie are more memorable and even Jay Z are in more top 5s than Nas will ever be.
The creativity of lyrics and ideas from this man is unimaginable. He's only part of a handful of artists that can create such a vivd picture with his words. the only other rapper that comes to mind is stann smith and maybe kendrick. the fact that he just won his first grammy is mind numbing. We will appreciate this man when he's no longer able to release music but I rather give him his flowers now while he can smell them. Thanks for everything Nas.

as a New Yorker , he's def in my top THREE. Highly underrated . and this will never NOT BE a classic
I love him too, but definitely not underrated.. he is often rated as the best ever :D he is rated pretty accurate
Underrated ? No . He’s top tier . Without question . Gen z can suck a D .
I see a pretty girl from NYC..
Is he now top 1 after this historic run?
@@williammfoula1914 Nas is the best to ever do it. 🐐 If Biggie and Pac lived longer that may have changed
Nas is like…my favorite rapper
"Let my cash invest in stock"
Now the OG out here pulling in multi-millions

Looking at 200 million
It’s funny because nas bas been saying this for a long time so essentially he 20 years later is making millions

I was born in 2006, I missed many artists in their prime and that old-school shit. that won't stop the love I got for it.
You cant miss what's already immortalized, no matter what year you were born

Nas is Half Man Half Amazing.
Like a Afrocentric Asian
He is Vince Carter
No doubt
Damn we need music like this again
I grew up on this type of music
Listen meek Mill championship album
J.cole is the current nas to me after only listening to nas I didnt feel like no one can be compared until j.cole came in
yo go listen to lute, he sticks to the real old school style of rap. He needs some more recognition though.
Daron Dubose just checked him out he’s kinda dope 👍🏽
Pure lyricism. We didn't know it at the time but rappers like Nas are the Shakespeares of our generation.
I don't think we really realise how talented DJ Premier is. Much respect.
Nah, we know what Premier can do ;)
Really?
Preemo is one of the greatest, I been knowing this forever
Dig he do this beat?
@@adamlakis9378 yes
Say what? Premo is the greatest of all time bro
Lyrics: 10/10
Beat: 10/10
Classic: 1000/10
He was a legend this man sounded like a 25 year old as a 19-20 year old and his lyrical ability was godly
For Sure..!
He wasn’t a legend , He IS A LEGEND
Well actually he was 25 here tho
Won't lie... NAS was ahead of his time!!!! Even way back then!!
No wonder jay z had to come for him
BEST DUOS! ruclips.net/video/4N1iTrrwN1A/видео.html
Truly the goat
Im korean. Nas is legend here too.

One Love
P type
no autotune.
no flexing.
no half naked girls.
just a true hip hop piece of art, by one of the greatest to ever do it.
Real talk
Yup
He flexed his chain and money. Just saying
@@rico.p he said on reach out you see the shit i wear you have to live that life then rock it after. A reminder he came from poverty and made his own fortune he’s proud of. No more hustling.
@@lethalassassin1754 I love Nas, all I did was state how he does flex when the guy said he doesn’t
This is the essence of hip-hop.
A punch line on every verse, not a single nonsense was spoken
The perfect hip hop song
