No need to take up for him. It's obvious that he's not really up on his Hip Hop knowledge about Nas and his music career to ask that question and is possibly trolling.

Cosign because Nas is the people's champ of hip hop. AllHipHop is the most versatile hip hop forum on the internet. We all listen to all types of rap music but last time there was a poll with over 1000 respondents on who the GOAT is Nas won overwhelmingly.
Life is good!

and you're too rich to be in the hood that birthed you

you thought were the greastest

life becomes clearer when you wipe down your mirrior"
To which somebody replied..
"oh shit Nas going in"
What are these people seeing that im not? can somebody explain this shit because I feel like im missing the big picture.[/quote
oh shit, Nas going in! let me TRY to explain this shit. The first verse Nas is saying as he is writing he is drunk but thats when he is at his best, when he was young he was he was normal known as his fathers son, now he has made itpeople know his father because of Nas,what his father planted has come to fruition.
The second verse Nas is explaining that he doesnt fit in because he knows better than what he used to and has out grown certain things s and he notices is this when he cleans his mirror and looks at himself properly. Keeps it real.
Nas shit is poetry just like Shakespeare,. Not to easy not to complex.

Dont really listen to Nas like that can go years without hearing him but he got some songs I liked. I know i can, the one with lauren hill, It aint hard to tell, the older one with kool g rap, etc. I have no problem with him,. I aint against him and not gon insult him. I just dont listen to him like that. I just let the internet folks be on this subject cause nobody gon sucker me into arguin and throwin insults back and fourth over nothing as they do over this subject. Im (thankfully) ahead of this game.

TS---so u came up on NAs early music and are now having trouble relating to his new stuff?
imo, a BIG reason why a lot of these rappers are still relevant is the 'nostalgia factor'. i first heard nas on live at the bbq and its been a wrap since---but nas may be the exceptio to that rule....
his new album is not what i exppected but i like the direction he went with it. imo, waaay better than WTT and i only listened to life is good a couple times. nas rhymes are always kinda complex where i can come back 2 years later and listen to a song i memorized and hear something i never noticed before.
give it some time. let the album digest.

Fair enough, but what is the answer? I'm curious myself because I'm wondering the same thing. A lot of people list the stuff that Nas does so well, but without some kind of comparison to others, it's a pointless statement.

Yeah, I don't get the hype behind his new album. It's solid but folks on here have hyped it up like its a classic. Same with Daughters. Cool song but not classic material. With that said Nas is in my top 5

You can't rationalize with immature people. I respect the t/s opinion but I still disagree with him. There is no need for people coming at his neck with who he listens to.Jamaica;4640869 said:

T/S just asked a simple question..and people are going in on him...
well i see nas as a great writer,because he can take something simple
that we do everyday and make you see it in another way. Like that first verse
posted. his father olu was a blues man, and a good one. he worked with a lot
of great music people, and nas wanted to be like him. he was known as olu's son
but now nas is great and olu is now know as nas father, because he groomed
him to be great. just something simple, but it's the way he puts it all. and if you
ever tried to rap or to write, it's not that easy to do. dude has been doing it for 20 yrs
and can still out spit some of the best. plus he packs a lot into his verses that some
people can't get at times and it turns them away, and they see it as wack.
'Life is Good' is an adult album dealing with divorce, taxes, and kids.
Nas is showing that hip hop can be for adults.. imo
