Was supposed to be on It Was Written, but he went the maifoso route (Steve Stoute influence)...I absolutely love IWW but always wonder how it would've sounded had he kept this sound. Nas was clearly growing as an MC either way.
Big mistake shelving this album. It would have been a classic. I have a friend that actually heard a lot of the other tracks that were supposed to be on the album and said it was fucking RAW!
@@dkd8747 What’s crazy is that this was Chris's first hiphop production. He was 18. They also recorded another song which is still unreleased. thebridge94.blogspot.com/2009/09/through-lights-camera-and-action.html
This pic was on my wall when I was young, then my laptop background, then my phone’s and now it’s my insta dp… and this song brings back memories of rough times, good times, sad times, and when I see the pic and hear the song it’s simply deja vu
it was written is my favorite nas album, but i wish there was a lil of that vibe in it. shit i wish a lot a things about 90s nas, i wish we could here him on production like gran puba 2000 album
