Nas joints "Either" "I gave you power" "We will survive" " it ain't hard to tell" "Made you look" "Take it in blood" "Small world" Too many to name🤷🏾♂️
you can tell that by this dudes confusion as to whom Nas was talking about on this track that Nas is a lyrical beast.This young dude probably wasn't alive when this track came out but fast forward to present times Nas lyrics still goes off the top of Niggas domes ! G O A T
The first verse was about Biggie. At the time Pac assumed ANYONE that said something about a thug was coming at him. ESPECIALLY after he started his beef with Biggie. The Lex with tv sets line in the 2nd verse was said to be a early shot at Jay.
Was aimed at BIG to say I’m the King. BIG replied with Kick in the door. Nas did diss Jay with the line ‘Lex with TV sets the minimum’. As Jay had video with loads of Lexus’.
Illmatic is one of the best hip hop albums ever made. Big’s “Ready to Die “ and “Illmatic” go back and forth for that number one spot. Check out “Live at the BBQ” by Main Source. Nas has one of the illest verses ever on that track. Also “Back to the Grill “ by MC Search,Chub Rock,Tone and Nas. It’s straight fire and Nas was only 17 years old when he did those joints. Nas didn’t even have a album out yet. Also “Get Down” “If I ruled the world “and “Hip hop is dead” are also dope. Especially “Get Down “
He was aiming at Pac, Big, Jay, and other mid tier New York mc's in this era. He was also flexing on the West Coast rappers with the CB4 Gusto line as well. Google that if you don't know who that is.
@@casinolife7534 won't dispute that, but NY State of Mind is what was playing first on hot 97 and in the underground scene in NYC. After Live at the Barbecue
@@droro9 I’m from Cambria Heights/Hollis Queens, and I promise you that “Halftime “, which was Nas first single that was put out before Illmatic dropped! Of course he had cameos in Barbecue and Back to the Grill Again, but as a solo artist, Halftime was his first single that wasn’t even supposed to be on Illmatic, but put on there because it was so 🔥 Halftime dropped in 92, Illmatic dropped in 1994!
@MATRIX Lomachenko it was more like friendly competition than actual beef. Biggie and Nas was cool with each other and had respect for one another. One story goes that Biggie called Nas after It Was Written went platinum to congratulate him for "getting the monkey of your back".
Bro just listen to the whole “It Was Written” album for shit like this-classic. “Street Dreams” is the next track on the album-was a big single with a video. The remix with R Kelly (also with video) was dope too.
That part of the second verse of him describing a shoutout is like the one he had in the movie "Belly", which came out a couple years after this song. Just search "Nas Belly shoutout" on YT.
Because he mentioned how he got shot and got out the hospital that same night and how he had a gun on him. Pac mentioned that, it wasn't just the thug comment. Pac felt like he was talking about his life and it was a subliminal shot.

Wasn't out of town. He said the bridge touched me up, that's his hood and that's how he got touched.
Pac confronted Nas about that first line.. Nas said it wasnt about pac.. said it was about biggie.. king of ny shit.. "there can only be one king"
The first verse was about Biggie. At the time Pac assumed ANYONE that said something about a thug was coming at him. ESPECIALLY after he started his beef with Biggie. The Lex with tv sets line in the 2nd verse was said to be a early shot at Jay.
Nas :
-Purple
-Last Real Ni**a alive
-Take it in blood
-Self Conscience (w/Prodigy)
Great list!
Absolutely class list
YESSS

Exactly real MC’s were talking to Everybody!
Nas "NY State of Mind"
Nas- NY State of Mind 1&2, I gave u power
Mobb Deep- shook ones pt.II, survival of the fittest
2pac-Hellrazor, Hold on Be Strong💪
One of my all-time favorite songs and this, I believe, is now my all-time favorite reaction to it. 😊
Nas.. affirmative action...
Yo....you HAVE to react to "Take it in Blood' by Nas. It is the most poetic street story EVER.
@MATRIX Lomachenko Yessir
NY State of Mind is what put Nas on the map. If you react to the lyrics video, perfection!! :)
That beat is hard asf!!
Halftime is the Song that put Nas on the Map! 🔥 🔥 NY solidified that he was here to stay! Halftime came out before the Album, roughly 6 months before
@@casinolife7534 won't dispute that, but NY State of Mind is what was playing first on hot 97 and in the underground scene in NYC. After Live at the Barbecue
@@casinolife7534 I thought it was "back to the grill again" that put him on the map

If u like this track you'll like 'Nas is Like'
Also, 'Take it in Blood'
Nas "Nas Is Like"
Nas tracks listen in any order Take it in blood, Life's a bitch, N.Y. State of Mind, watch dem niggas, I gave you Power, Rewind,
He was talking about Tupac. They both were going back and forth with disses towards each other in '96.
Great reaction. Felt it and understood it too. Nas is a one off.
That there can only be one king line was going at Biggie. Biggie responded on Kick in the Door.
@MATRIX Lomachenko it was more like friendly competition than actual beef. Biggie and Nas was cool with each other and had respect for one another. One story goes that Biggie called Nas after It Was Written went platinum to congratulate him for "getting the monkey of your back".
Fun fact... juicewrld sampled the same record from kiss for his record lucid dreams
Nas "It Ain't Hard To Tell"
Big called himself the ki g of Newyork
Nas "Get Down"

Nas-come get me
NAS- Shootouts
Yes that’s how everyone took it back then. A subliminal response to Tupac.
Most importantly, thats how Tupac took it. I'm just glad they squashed their beef before Pac passed.
Nas "Hate Me Now"
U look exactly like him 🤣
Rewind by Nas
Only reason I saw this video is cuz it was a Nas reaction. Sly Fox, undying love, Nas is like
YES IT WAS TO PAC
Nas ft Mobb Deep - Live N*gga Rap
NY State of Mind
If you wanna hear him beef with Jay Z, react to Ether.
My favorite song though is The Cross, highly recommended
I need you to definitely listen to Jay-z’s reasonable doubt album. And please get some mobb deep in the rotation.
Do Nas- I gave you power and Undying love
Nas was definitely talking about 2pac.
According to Nas he said that he was taking shots at Biggie and Jay Z not at Pac.
Nas- “Accident Murderers
Nas did diss Pac and Big subliminally.
The cross
These are our heroes
If I rule the world
NY state of mind
The world is yours
Nas is like
Ether(jay z diss track)
Nas- represent
Illmatic is definitely my favorite Nas song. That shit is just....perfect.
One Mic!
Actually it was a shot a biggie him and biggie use to take shots at each other.
He was talking about every rapper some say Nas the greastest!
Ether!! React to that!
Pac assumed it was about him. It HAD to be about BIG though. Jay had a song out(In My Lifetime) but he wasn’t poppin yet.
Because he mentioned how he got shot and got out the hospital that same night and how he had a gun on him. Pac mentioned that, it wasn't just the thug comment. Pac felt like he was talking about his life and it was a subliminal shot.
React to Nas let there be light
Bro he ain’t talking bout pac just listen to the damn song :D
your pausing is annoying, if you don't know
