SMH @ Nas not knowing what the hell hes talking about.
JokerzWyld;951254 said:read Dr. Yosef Ben-Jochannan among other scholars who found that most major religions had connection to ancient Egyptian religions (the same religions which predate the three monotheistic religions).
Dr. Yosef Ben-Jochannan: The African Origins of the Major "Western Religions" is the book you're looking for BTW.
Hold on, wasn't the Garden of Eden in Ethiopia?
Nice try, try harder next time.
Skeratch;951280 said:I don't know Dr. Ben Jochannan's research into ancient Egypt, but I will add that Nas was referring to satellite signal triggering underground seismic weapons. It's a conspiracy theory but Nas is just asking if it's true, would we survive it? The attack on the verse about lightning stars is confusing because Nas was just being lyrical there, with a sort of poetic creation story.
JokerzWyld;951299 said:The lightning stars quote was misquoted, he said lightning storm. Whether Nas is right or wrong, is yet to be determined, however, he did get his rhymes from scholastic resources, so for people to say he's not factual only indicates there own ignorance. But i agree with what you are saying.

Recovery was way better, but I always like Eminem's stuff more than Nas'. I even like the Relapse-style punchline-only songs.
However, Nas and Damian Marley made a great album. I don't really like the fact that Nas still brags about having guns. I mean.. most of his lyrics nowadays go beyond the "I'm gangsta, I got bling-blings and girls" stuff. Distant Relatives is a classic and so is Recovery. Hell, even Wayne got almost decent verses on both.

Mad Jack;951447 said:HAHAHA did this idiot just say that Christianity came from Israel? Europeans brought Christianity with them when they came to America and forced the slaves to believe in Jesus.This is almost as dumb as when he said that evolution does not exist.Then I remember that Nas is a middle school drop out "and this is with whom you place your faith".I understand that you people like his music,but Nas is NOT the intellectual that you people make him out to be.
Mad Jack;951408 said:Recovery actually has me interested unlike Distant Relatives which bores me.I keep forgetting that I got it on my iPod.So Recovery is better because Em does what an MC is suppose to do.
