I want to see one with one of these mumble rappers trying to justify the drug-addled bullshit they scat out in the booth.

Nas is my favorite rapper but his interviews are just weird.It´s like he canpt express himself well unless it´s with rhymes.

Nigga talk very good fk u talkin bout.

That lady is amazing in how she can listen to Nas understand what he is saying and then articulate it back to him in a scholarly way while making associations with other great poets from the past.

This is dope..

Nas aint gotta sound like a genius he's talking to an older lady so he is being nice and simple

so she can understand

Nice interview. My favourite Nas song - great balance between commercial beat and ill rhymes.

Nas is socially awkward and generally doesn't interview well, but he actually had some insightful stuff to say here, e.g. breaking down the slang and what his connection to the streets meant at that time.

God's Son only speaks in verses, not in mere mortal words... Like Jesus.

 

[the_focused_one]

Seriously, Nas cannot form sentences- only verses...

Every interview is a struggle with this cat.

He used to stay mad blunted in interviews but that doesn't seem the case as of late...
