Why Nas will never be top anything in my book..

[a_list]

lol @ this.....he cant be number 1 at anything because he chooses to just make music? lol thats crazy.....where in the hip hop rule book does it state that you have to be an exec, put a gang of rappers on and all this extra shyt.......

 

[jonathan_cephas]

did rakim have a team of niggaz?

Nope but he revolutionized rap and brought a whole new style and flow and is credited for that. What changes did Nas bring to the game?

nas is content just making music. as a fan of his i dont care whether he's a ceo etc. he's getting more money than waka and gucci doing shows btw.

 

[jonathan_cephas]

I agree to an extent, but has he ever wanted to be "more" then a rapper all like that?

Good point!

 

[JayEyeTheKing]

Nvm what I originally typed here.. read what else you said on here. So I feel yah opinion

Ha! I doubt it. He's not doing as many shows as them. He may charge a higher ticket and have a more quality show but in this case, Quantity over Quality.

So why did people like Jigga,Ice Cube,Puff,Em and Dre expand themselves to be versatile to get mad cake but nas is still rappin?

This is who ya'll place your faith?

Nas raps about pharaohs and kings but his dumb ass cant tell u how to get no corporate global dough and be worth 250 mil +

And ya'll buy the shit caught up in the hype,just cuz a nigga wear a kufi dont mean that he right

Haaat! I like that..

You know what, that rings analogy was wack cus foreal foreal if rings meant you was the best then Robert Horry is better than Jordan, Kobe, and LeBron cus he got 7. lol

You were the one who brought up rings. Comparing rings to a classic album is better than equating business ventures with your legacy. Since you brought up sports, Having a Belt like a the champ would be a better comparison.

 

[jonathan_cephas]

Lol @ you.. just cause Nas isnt as relevant now as he used to be.. He was way bigger than Gucci in the 90s-early 90s and still is bigger than him. You probably just started listening to rap a couple years ago. And he did used to have a team, the business side of things has nothing to do with if your a top rapper.

I've been listenin to rap for years. Im 28 and my first album was Bone E 1999 so I got a couple years of rap experience.

This nigga typing like getting 250 mil is on the McDonald Menu or some shit

but if thats what he's content doing why is everybody sweating him about it?

i didn't say as much shows but he gets more money than them per show

 

[@My_nameaintearl]

First post is correct, but the stans are also kind of right. Nas doesn't want to grow. And that's fine, that's his choice. Besides, if mo money means mo problems, Nas would just take more losses than he already does if he tried to expand. He already had to beg a judge to reduce his monthly Kelis payments. Why make things worse?

 

[a_list]

So.......

You like his lyrics/music/songs....................but you don't like him cuz "he not gettin money"??????

How about you just enjoy the music?

guess every rapper has to do more than music....mary j fans dont care if she got multiple ventures outside of music...lol all they care about is the tunes, rock fans as well

 

[just.might.b.ok]

lol yeah, fuck listeing to Nas, i'd rather listen to 50 cents, he made it cool for fans to look at the numbers and now he cant sell half of whe he used to

Nas strikes me as a introvert.

LOL. he must be the quiet ass type
