Of course...when it's f*cking Nas. Nas the best ever...Jay might have better beats and some doper songs for the clubs but lyrically Nas got em with Ilmatic. Jay was still rapping fast when Nas first came out.
We'll never get better hip-hop album... Not only debut album. The only debut album that can pretend to be in the conversation came out the same year and it was Ready to Die.
everyone knows Nas always been that dude. they choose to argue that just coz they love arguing thus it. other than everyone know Nas is an all time better rapper than all of them
Jay Electronica gets that type of respect from his peers. He is seen as an all time great MC even though he hasnt had mainstream success or acclaim. If you listen to his early work with Dilla and others , you will see why Tip, Nas, Puffy, Jay etc were hailing him as an all time great and he hadnt even put out an album yet. Dude is special
Great take and aside that he chooses to release music the way he does, he knows 99.99 percent of other rappers/artist cannot compete lyrically. Definitely a special talent.
Nas definitely is the best rapper when it comes to straight lyrics and delivery. He has been around forever and has the best hip hop album every respected in the hip hop community.
Two different rappers. Nas paints a vivid picture of how the world truly is from his experiences and his eyes while Jay Elec makes you wonder about the future, the meaning behind why we here and the unexplained.
@@OmarScruggs this dude is right. The only reason you think NaS is better is because of his whole catalogue. Jay Electronica is a teacher bro. I love Nas too but Jay is something special Kanye is just bitter because of his issues with Jay Z.
He explained all of this in great detail in every single interview for the past two decades Listen to #YE .,not just these clips. Type 2 letters...there ya go
Jay Elec doesn't have much footage of him online. There's a music vid or two, but honestly that didn't complement the short much. Like Jaelon said, it's a Nas x A$AP Rocky visual.

Bro Nas Literally Has A Song Called Adam And Eve - Rap Is Synonymous With The Bible And The Culture Of Religion PERIOD. Hence Why Erykah Badu (Jay Elects Babymama) Said HIPHOP IS BIGGER THAN RELIGION. Even If That’s “All” Jay Elect Did, It Wouldn’t Make Him Less Talented 🫢

Nas can actually finish projects. I love Jay Electronica , but you can't be the best without finishing an album. A Written Testimony is more of a Jay Z Collab project than anything . That said Electronica is an amazing live performer.
Finishing projects or albums has nothing to do with being great. You just have to be great. Jay Elect has like a hundred plus songs out there. Albums are a recent phenomenon in music created by record companies to increase profits and exploit artists. Before that people released singles. There are tons of rappers who release plenty albums that are straight garbage rappers
@@E-Jizza Do you have a list of the 100 songs. As far as I know, he has less than 50 even including features. I've seen him live and he's good, but he's no where close to Nas
He's actually correct, especially about that feeling that Nas is just ordained to be GOAT. Think about it. Nas and HipHop are the same age. HipHop is known for its roots in Jazz. Well, guess whose father happens to be a Jazz musician. Then Nas messes around and makes the greatest HipHop album ever even before he was old enough to drink legally. That album Illmatic would go on to break the mould of rappers sticking to one producer per project. Thirty years later, Nas releases six albums in three years with a single producer - at a quality that makes a great argument for rappers to stick to one producer per project. I could go on and on. Nas is easily the closest thing we'll ever have to HipHop in the flesh.

Nas and Damian Marley
DISTANT RELATIVES
This album is a must hear !
Been main in the mix for a decade +
Listen UP
Underappreciated gem that project is. Nas wasnt messing around & managed to keep up with Damian Marley's energy which I dont think many rappers can do
Oh please, Nas had the energy on that track. Damien was super mellow and simple, which is fine but please.
Can somebody tell me if that album is worth a listen? Nas is one of my favorite rappers and Damien Marley is one of my favorite reggae artists btw.
We are definitely in a video game
Nas is the perfection of an MC
Well. That might be the only thing me and Kanye have in common.
only people hes praised and said is better than him is Nas, Jay Z and Eminem
When he said enimen is better?
I bet you he wasn't sayin all that to Hov back in the day.
Did they just say jay elect and show ASAP rocky or was that really jay?
Nah man that was rocky. Its from the wave gods music video by nas
