I don't know about you niggas but if I wanted to be considered a top 5 DOA legend many years after quitting the game, I'd go with Nelly's career.
 
hmmmm...... being a respected rapper after more than 20 years in the game vs. being one of Kevin Hart's whipping boys.. I'd take Nas

Weren't air jordans worn on the court??? Aren't they a staple in NBA all over??? How much more on the court can you get??? It's not like jordans was a tech investment or something it ties in to his profession.... To remain on track that would be like nas having a #1 single and that single being used for movies and TV shows all over and somebody tryna say that doesn't count towards his music career cuz that money wasn't made on album sells....
 
this what people may don't get... Even nas do not like his career. The first half 10 years, he was fucked by the record labels, thats why he did another 10. He said in a interview he always wanted to be finished by now he did not expect to be in this position once his daughter was grown..

The thing is he became a bitter piece of the game. Rather than to become a boss, nas is too busy lying and playing ego games with other rappers. Nas is in his position by force.. On the other hand nelly always have a smile on his face, he seems more content with his career... even tho his music is the total opposite of nas, nelly feels like he accomplished alot.

When it comes down to careers you want to be fulfilled more than longevity.. If your in the game for 20 odd years but you become a bitter lying grumpy hateful stumbling block to new talent, you are a destruction more than positive role model. even tho nas portray to be positive in his music, its all fake.. He only went that way because his image was exposed when he was trying to be ESCOBAR.

For the people who feel this is better than not being on at all. It really is not a better state of mind. Its a slave career, and some people rather not be on at all than be a 20 year slave.. Thats what happen to some of the older rappers that caught up in those slave deals they were giving. You got to be wise what type of deal you take, thats why some people are not on.. You can't jump on anytype of deal, because you will wind up with a MISERABLE career. Despise what type of music you make, a GOOD career makes a GOOD DEAL, and nelly got the better MUSIC DEAL. Whatever he do with his money is on him.. but nas got a fork in his deal. Even he isnt content thats why he's always blaming his state of discontent on the ERA of "hiphop"..

A wise decision for any one that has talent, don't jump on the wrong deal just for the television fame, it isnt worth it. U better off unsigned.

Nelly

And I was a Nas fan

The thing that made me respect Nelly was his character and the bigger picture of his movement.

The KRS 1 thing was blown out of proportion and tip drill put him at odds with the uber black feminists, one of my favorite clubs songs to this day.

Plus Nas is boring as a personality and a snake to everyone who ever fucked with him from Queens.

That fucks up your brand and burns bridges.

finally

Ashanti over Kelis all day every day playboy

lol b, if we asked who had the better career jordan , Kg or kobe what are we going to base that on? Nobody will bring air jordans or money made into the discussion that whole arguement will be based on skillset, championships etc...So when going by music careers I'll stick to what they did in music.....
 
What's funny is that most of the votes in favor of Nelly are based on everything, but his career. It's like saying, well he had Ashanti, he doesn't owe the IRS, Nas wifed Kelis, yet where's the argument for Nelly's career. I'm not talking about the first 5-6 years, I'm talking 2000 (when he dropped his debut) to present, which is his entire career.

@BrazilianHairMoney what's your personal history with NaS?



a couple of rappers was online, and they thought I was snoody.. I wasn't even bothering anyone.. matterfact I would say good things about nas.. then somebody started fucking with me online like I was nas groupie.. come to find out it was NAS.

then a couple of them started tossin my name around like I was a groupie on line running thru rappers. they didn't like my opinions I posted on line.

I thought nas was a bigger person then to do some dumb shit like that.. I was never his groupie, just thought like some of you, thought he was more mature than that, but I found out the hard way he was not...

u see when a female have male enemies thats what they do act like they smashed and used you up. .

nas was online looking for a trick, and he came cross the wrong one.. o.k thats fine, but why lie on me?

he got people thinking he was smashing me and i'm his left overs that shit isnt cool or true. The baby mother thought I had baby and thought he was giving me a child support check.. wtf? I never been with this dude. The shit isn't cool.

He got people I do know calling me a hoe.. I was into someone 4 real, when he did that. He even told dude lies.. He's playing a game but the shit isnt funny.

Bra if you don't think that things off the court that have nothing to do with skill don't have any impact on where a bballer is ranked then you are delusional it's a big reason why mj is considered the goat.... it's the same with hip hop the things off the mic are just as important as what you spit on the mic it's really all apart of your career now if you wanna ask who's skill would you rather have or catalog would you rather have then that's different but when talking about your career everything plays a part
 
Apple Bottoms stopped being hot for chicks outside of St. Louis a long time ago.

The Charlotte Bobcats on are Def Jam status in terms of revenue....and NBA relevancy.

And Kelly Rowland>>>>>Ashanti.

Nas wins.

Lol @ somebody uppin this thread. Are we really tryna decide between a lyrical rap legend against a has been 3 hit wonder who thought he could rip KRS and dunt turnt into one of the washed up guys on husbands pf Hollywood? Ummmm ok
 
Nas has a good bit of money tucked away, while Nelly spends all his money on his fucking disgusting blings and his girlfriends makes him poor. Nelly has no good income longer he rots that cunt His music sells nothing anymore and when he does a conert so he serves not as good as Nas. Nelly is a fucking fagot check out how he looks like he may just girls because he has muscles for a lyrical monster, he is not. He is the one that causes the girls shaking asses on Club engines. Nelly is a Nas staan ​​the man he loves Nas. Damn you fucking pussy of course you choose Nas over Nelly. Nelly is a cocksucker he makes good music when I should take the girls in the club, but otherwise he is probably top 100 while nas is the godfather of hip hop.
