NAS "Life Is Good" (Official discussion thread) Release date 07/17/12

[DNB1]

It seems to me that Nas addresses all his so called L's on this album that the Reason has given him over the past couple years...

It's like he lurking right now.....lol

The last time I got this feeling was when I let Ab Soul album marinate in my bones...

Album of the year....so far...

It's good to see the real objective niggas speak the truth about nas this album is trash and nasir has more wacc albums than good ones

He a solid lyricist wit a weak catalog

your hate for Nas stems from the bitterness u feel towards Most Nas fans who clown your Monkey - Snitch 50 in da IC.

I remember Nas wuz a lock in yo top 3 wit Big & Ghost. Now all over sudden u trashin him to get back at us. Come clean bruh, u been bumpin LIG since it leaked. Nash pushd da envelope creatively as far as this record is concerned.

No Intro - Hot

Locomotive - Hot

Back When - Hot

Daughters - Hot

Trust - bonus record

Roses - bonus record

Black James B - bonus record

Worlds addiction - Meh.... Hot

Stay - Fire

cherry wine - soft ass dandelion music ....

Bye Baby -Hot

QueensStory - a jumbled sonic mess

Wouldnt understand - repetitive "quiet storm" anita baker jams ...

which of these records can one claim is wack unless u a crack baby hypnotized by todayz crack, homosexuality raps.

Worlds an addiction is Meh?

Now yo excuse is bonus tracks?

lol! Im done. Gucci mane is droppin his record soon.

i could have swore i wrote that it was "hot"? did you just intentionally skip that? ....dont get all emo bruh bruh ...... i like it ...would have loved to hear some drums on it tho ...

.... if you go to best buy or any major retailer...and cop the album ...you dont get the bonus tracks on it ...unless you drop extra bread and get the delux verion so yeah ..im judging it on the tracks he chose to put on the regular ep...

....classic.....you coppin? @bolded

 

[infamous114]

And still the only track I've deleted is Summer on Smash...the album is fire IMO

 

[[Trillmatic]]

man this album is too tuff

 

[Supreme_Mind999]

Stay has stayed on repeat ever since I copped the album..(I get retail albums early in atl)..What the fuck are niggas complaining about?..Im highly suspect of some of ya'll IQ levels..Bar for Bar..Concept for Concept..There isn't a abundance of Emcees that polish Nas' Shoes..I overstand most kats want the 808 trap beats like "No lie" but Nas comes from a different generation and school,theres a certain sound from that era that fits his vocals and rhyme cadence..Nas has a rapid fire flow and he dips in and out of the pocket of the beats..He's not Drake rhyming with melody,he's straight spitting like rakim and kool G rap..What? you thought you were gonna get something other than Nas? lol..If you don't like the man's style,leave his music alone..Plain and simple..

Nas blacked out on every track...I bet he has Jay-z jealous that he did a Blueprint Lyrical fly Baller album better than he did lol..

You know most hate is crooked confused admiration because even the so called "haters" pick up the Cd to Listen lol..

A true hater who disliked nas wouldn't click play to begin with..Most of ya'll closet Fans on the low..*Coughs* Tommy!

[And_So_It_Burns]

Wow can't believe how good this album is....

Queens Story is just sick super descriptive...I can understand how someone who can't keep up with the story may say it sounds like a "jumbled mess" but "ya intellect mad slow" one of the best story telling tracks heard in a while

who in the hell is complaning about beats. this could be his best produced albulm besides illmatic and gods son

[YoungChamp]

Not To throw salt, But anybody saying this album is weak or wack, must be a fan of yo gotti,Waka,2chainz,Gucci or lil wayne. Life is Good is a contemporary album for true nas fans who have like me has experienced his growth. Production is there and Lyrics is there, what more do u want.

BTW My Fantasy Nas album would consist of Production by:

1. DJ Premier

2. 9th Wonder

3. Just Blaze

4. Kanye West

5. Pete Rock

6. The Alchemist

7. Rza

8. Dr.Dre

9. The Neptunes

10. Marley Marl

Bet niggas wouldnt complain of a album of that Magnitude. "Dope Beats,Dope Rhymes,this Hip Hop shit aint really that Hard" - Phonte. If U a Little Brother Fan you'll know that quote.

So anybody who's "downing the album don't know what the fuck they talking about"? or maybe thats niggas genuine opinion

other people are bein be objective and aren't groupies like ya'll

You know how these niggas operate around these parts....if you're not praising Nasir's name you're either

1. a Gucci Mane fan

2. you don't know shit about real hip hop

3. you're a hater

and my favorite one

4. that shit went over your head LMAO!

his last solo album "Untitled" was way better than "Life is good"

Lmao yup ,yamoley called it

Thats Your Opinion homie,Cats can respect it and move on,But what do u not like about this album in particular?and yes Untitled is a Great album, yet misses the it factor Life is Good Presents

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Nah untitled sucks too

Im a hip hop head and listen to old school hip hop more than any current hip hop,no need for the presumptuous "you must listen to wacka,gucci,oj the juiceman" generalizations

This album sucks to me,Im being objective it has no replay value and besides no intro,world is an addiction,you wouldn't understand and stay these other songs are trash especially The don and accidental murderers those songs are super wacc

Just my opinion of course nas groupies wont understand

 

[H-Rap 180]

Somebody wanna give the obvious attention-whoring crippled-weirdo some attention so he can drool and feel better about his facial features.

or you can ignore him and deprive him of the satisfaction.

 

[YoungChamp]

Thats the great thing about album,different songs cater to different people, I skip A queens story and You wouldnt Understand, But some dudes like them,Thats their preference. But in the world we live in its hard to get good albums, rare almost. Ab-soul's Control system is still number one to me. Life is good is a good record imo, and this is coming from a consumer. No Groupie. Personally feel HipHop is Dead album is super weak,and so is the 2nd disc of streets disciple minus War,Suicide Bounce and Thief's theme, and Streets disciple. I Nit pick when it is needed. Fellow Hip Hop heads, can u honestly say in the past year that we had an album of this caliber on the market,honestly. Kendrick Lamar's Section 80 comes to mind but thats it.

Queens story sucks to me too ,and nas hasn't dropped a hot album since stillmatic

distant relatives,untitled,streets disciple were all trash but every album(except distant relatives) had 1-2 songs I can bump just like this one

In the past year watch the throne was the best album released to me.Great production,great substance and great lyrics from jigga.Classic album

overall the genre is dead and I expected nasir to drop a refreshing hip hop album but he couldn't and its sad

 

[YoungChamp]

Really Watch the Throne? Production is there, but even Kanye outshines Jay-z on almost all the songs,Lyrically its no where near Liife is good,The Hunger that Shawn carter had is gone, only joints i rock with is Gotta have it, new day, otis, and Murder to excellence. Primetime and The Joy are bonus tracks. basically a dissapointment. But I do agree the genre is very weak.
