First Time Hearing Nas "N.Y." State Of Mind" REACTION 

This album, ILLMATIC is THE BIBLE OF RAP 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🐐

First time??? Bro, I wrote a Fiance paper on this song at Penn State, and won an award. Lol. Check out "Loco-motive".

Fun fact: Nas was between 17&18yrs old when he was writing for this album...so in reality you're reacting to somebody about 5yrs younger than u that ended up being crowned the next savior of hiphop🔥let that sink in 😅

The G.O.A.T. 🔥🐐🔥🐐🔥🐐

Back in the day if your cassette player (Boom Box) wasn't on point it would eat your tape...unravel it while it was playing.

Goosebumps listening to one of the goats. Homie was 19!! 19 y.o. and wrote a classic! Project poetry.

You don’t have bars, delivery and flow like this at 17 unless you’re straight born to do it. They don’t come along too often, dude was a rose that grew through concrete. Kendrick too.

Yo, I own this album on Cassette bro! Illmatic is easily one of my favorite rap albums I own and I’ve been waiting for you to react to this! 😄 If you’re looking for other classics, here’s a semi short list: Angel - Mezzanine (1998, Massive Attack) Tonite - Quik Is The Name (1991, DJ Quik) Nine Dead Bodies - Judgement Day (1992, Esham) Fuck Wit Dre Day - The Chronic (1992, Dr Dre) Insane In The Brain - The Essential Cypress Hill (1993 - Cypress Hill) C.R.E.A.M [Cash Rules Everything] - Enter The Wu Tang [36 Chambers] (1993 - Wu-Tang Clan) Diary of a Madman - 6 Feet Deep (1994 - Gravediggaz) Shimmy Shimmy Ya - Return To The 36 Chambers (1995 - Ol’ Dirty Bastard) Renee - Lost Boys (1995 - Lost Boyz) Infinite [Single] - Infinite (1996 - Eminem)

Nas the GOAT! Great reaction bro! More Nas! Nas - It Aint Hard To Tell Nas - Represent Nas - Take It ain’t Blood Mobb Deep ft Nas & Raekwon - Eye For An Eye

Let's be clear tho!!! Nas is the BEST rapper!!! I love Jay Z, but people.....HE LOST!!!!! Nas fucking annihilated him!!! N

I like seeing you younger bros appreciate these old masterpieces. Keep the ears tuned!

This 2011 Class is off the hook. YG,Kendrick,Yelawolf,Mac Miller and Meek Mill. Kendrick is my favorite from this list with Yelawolf right behind him. Good Kid m.A.A.d city is my favorite album. But To Pimp A Butterfly is right there. I actually go back and forth between these albums constantly lol. I’ve listened to everyone of his albums. I listened to Section.80 after I heard Good Kid. I like the track A.D.H.D. But my favorite Kendrick song is “Celebration” which is on his Kendrick Lamar EP. I like the sample he used which is Roy Ayer’s Ubiquity song “Hummin”. Kendrick is definitely killing it right now. The “Not like Us” video that just dropped was dope. Kendrick ain’t playing. These artists that I mentioned have sold tens of millions of albums combined. What Yelawolf has done in his career is also amazing. RIP Mac Milller. We have lost so many amazing artists to drugs and violence. I can’t even list the number of rappers who have been killed. It’s horrible shit. Adam 16 from No Jumper just had the dude that was there when Pop Smoke was killed in which he only got 4 years for which is absolutely crazy. I know that he was a minor ,17, years old when this happened but they charge minors as adults everyday. He said that he’s not sorry for what happened and he used the line from “Paid in full” when Alpo the Cameron character said “n*gas die everyday B”. When I heard that I was like “You piece of shit”. He did say that he wished that it never happened and he sent out condolences to Pop Smokes family but that he wasn’t sorry. He didn’t do enough time in my opinion and I bet that if he did more time that he would have felt differently about it. I will be very surprised if he sees 25 years old. Because he’s obviously still living that street life so it’s going to end badly for him anyway. He’s either going to be in prison for murder or something like that or he’s going to get smoked on the streets. That’s just what I see happening. RIP Pope Smoke.

I love watching the younger generation react to Nas. Especially that moment when you realize he’s the goat

“Nas hard, No diddy he hard” lmao PLEASE tell me you’ve listened to Ether?

the 2nd one is super under-rated

REACT TO NAS "REWIND". HE MADE A WHOLE SONG BACKWARDS, SHIT IS DOPE! 🔥 🔥

Nas - Rewind Nas - I Gave You Power Nas and Raekwon - Rich and Black Nas - Book of Rhymes Alchemist ft Nas and Prodigy - Tick Tock Its mandatory you listen to all of Illmatic to be honest lol make it your choice if you want to listen to the whole album as a reaction or each song as a reaction, but you gotta check it all out. If I'm not mistaken the whole album is even in the Library of Congress as a piece of historical art.

NAS is the 1

Young blood some DMX please

Bingo man! Nas is the shit!

BROOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Dude i bought 'Ready to Die' and 'Ilmatic' on the same damn day back in 95!!! Those trees have been providing fruit ever since!!! Classics!!!!

Listen to nas shoot outs, small world, or undying love. All 3 better than a lot of movies you've watched.

Nas is King lol

Dig into his catalog young👑...U starting in the right place. U about to witness/listen to GREATNESS...NASIR=🐐

You gained a follower for reacting to "Real Rap." I got tears of joy watching this!

Thank you young King keep striving and reacting to the kings that paved the way

Its all good bro just more Nas reactions 😂

Can you do Christian rap by nick nittoli manggg

Seriously, reading comprehension. His rhyme is a poetic composition. of his life

He’s saying tougher than dice cause you can’t break dice

Man. Hip hop is so shit nowadays lol

The undisputed 🐐

This was also the experience in neighborhoods across the US in the 80/90s. That's why a white kid in West Alabama related immediately, and why he blew up.

honestly i was impressed you young and catchin all the bars like that

This song is about him telling an old friend what the streets is like these days, and giving examples

You need to React to Nas " Undying love " or " I gave you power "

This dude’s clarification is all over the place .😂

This was an introduction to the world i remember this album like it was yesterday meng. Good times

"Plus the Island is packed" Referring to Riker's Island jail in NYC where cats do more time, in worse circumstances just WAITING for trial than the charge they caught would actually give them in prison!

Biggie "Warning" As " Who Shot Ya"

This was one take fam. Debut Album. This is how this young man introduced himself to the world!

Bro better late then never
