Nas - Nastradamus 

Even 2000

Everything was futuristic

So cheesy unlike Illmatic which sounds timeless and could’ve been written centuries ago

Which Nas won hands down

Cus bleek’s man amp it up and bleek fell for it

+Narhang Ingnam nastradamus

@ end predicts 9/11!!!!!! ; O

😂

Yeah meeen I remember those 8mb memory card.lol

😂 Yeah Nas was way ahead of his time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I thought the world was going to end… and remember the moment *IT DIDN’T.* 😆

So True

Cap

You know them way there 😂

Yeah it was so crazy and then the beef came.

I'm a Fif fan BUT Nas is something else. Definitely a hip hop great. By the way, did you know, Nas took Fif on his Nastradamus tour, in '99?

A real Nas fan will admit that he did stumble a bit around this time, he came back hard with Stillmatic tho.

***** naw a real nas and a real hip hop fan would appreciate all the work from a real artist. this song is awesome and so is this album

joe papa This song is pretty catchy and blows away 99 percent of rappers best hits today but for Nas standards it's weak.

I'm pretty sure that's an Einstein quote or some shit...

What does Jay Z have to do with Nas

Mad sublims in this one as though he was warning us about what's to come, but didn't really rap about what he wanted to say. Visuals did the job for that though. Only the rich and powerful truly have the forecast of what's up ahead on the plans for world domination and conquest pretty much.

Devin Shaw original sample is j.b's (It's Not the Express) It's the J.B.'s Monaurail from 1975

you want beef? i can let a slug melt in your cap

Caprisun R It was a response to Memphis Bleek's song What you think of that released earlier on that year in 1999 Bleek responded on my mind right then Nas responded on the bridge

Memphis Bleek in particular.

You want beef i can let a slug melt in your hat

And this fired the whole beed

This shit wasn't the illest song ever, but the beat is definitely fire. He spits a little shit on here too.

Even if jay z had done it dey would say he is the best.

Or jay z lollll

False. Jay z never put out something even close to as bad as this garbage

"I know what girls like" was way worse than this

that's right, i think the same!

A lot of Nas fans aren't upset with him not making another Illmatic, it was his beat selections throughout I am and Nastradmus Let's face it, they were heavily inconsistent and some were just straight awful I love Nas to death, but he only fell by sound, his lyricism never fell off, some of his most poetic and intelligent lyricism came off of Nastradmus and I Am

nothingmuch44 let haters wallow in the their envy for a great MC Nas

This was wack fam... It just so happen that it sounds good in comparsion to the shit out now

King Eric Productions nigga this shit not wack

Feel u bro 2022 still 🔥🔥🔥

@@lamarsmith9532 yep

There's def some great songs on it. If this is the worse of Nas, then that's a testament to how great he is.

@@gooserich3970 True indeed. I always thought that Nas's Nastradamus album was a good album.

I have always wondered why people say this album is whack it's dope album to me

My phone is 74 gigabytes, and my laptop is 500gb. My Ipod is 160gb.

J3YB33 omg u such a thug... keep in mind that this song was written in the 20th century.

in '99 laptops were 4 gigabytes morron

I'm a gigabyte and I find this offensive

JRealGhetto REALLY??? WELL I NEVER!!!!

Rantsaronie Escobar you know he’s banstradamus

Tbh, I never knew this song existed until I heard Ex singing it

Finally found itttttttt

@@johanfurtado6887 qqhjkkeeoew+

I hate this video! Love this song though. This beat and Nas telling his mf story as usual. Puffy dumb fuck videos era started the departure of nyc street videos aligning with the songs to tell the story as the lyricists wrote it.

gwapo bandcamp you know ... as long as I’ve known this song I’ve never really realized that he was describing his names

2020 Facts

Christian Barrett chris

He's Nasty Nas ding-dong

@@benchwarmerss9165That shit was slick fuck what others gotta say🥂

I was 13 years old when Nas - Nastradamus Album came out in 1999, I am 35 years old now, born on October of 1986, Real 90s Kid 💯. Eminem was fresh, new and popular when he first came out with "My Name Is" in 1999, I also remember Ja Rule's "Holla Holla" in 1999 too.

damn. always nice to see input from people that lived in the 90’s!

He is the prophet of rap. He predicted the fall of the World Trade Center and modern technology through this video. Hence Nastradamus/Nostradamus.

Shit go hard 🔥

Same

Nothing wrong with being right

Very long overdue

He should win it again with Kings Disease 2, Dope Album he drop this year💯🎧

Long overdue, but Freedie Gibbs Alfredo album was better tho... I get why Esco won it tho

@@Kev_-qm1jethat’s your opinion but I beg to differ

Factz

That's facts bro

On my Mom's.

EPMD - Let The Funk Flow

JB"s monorail...

If u love this beat listen to EPMD

@@boerencole280 lounge homeboy you're in the danger zone when the brotha PMD is on tha microphone

Vlad punching the air 😂

me too

Embarrassing music video

@@JimmyJames10-k7v lmao ironically it has that y2k aesthetic that Gen Z adores today, the new generation of fans can sometimes appreciate what wasnt appreciated back then

Really

Somewhat someway Nas was able to prove he was ahead of his time

@@andred4473 You got a point. Because Generation X & the Millennials, looked at this music video, as just another overpriced, excessive, music video of the day. To make matters worse it was Nas. Just like I hated the "Hate Me Now" video, with puff.

What

😂

You know them way there 😂

Arigato DECEPTICON NINJA CARTEL corona cash flow Belly antivirus pipe down nucca Nigeriano antivirus beach

That’s the twin towers? And Nas is a mason

Yeah that's crazy

Relax. It's a solar eclipse....not an airplane.

What's even crazier "I'll let you niggas bang my shit before Saddam hit" in 1999

FACTS

arian johnson id like to see what’s on your playlist

@@arianjohnson355 You're not a Real Hip Hop lover, you just stood up for Lil Yatchy goofy ass. Nas is the greatest thing to happen to Hip Hop/Rap. The Firm album is incredible, and his solo albums actually made you think. Lil Yatchy can barely hang with the rappers we have these days, that's why his album flopped hard.. Not to mention the boy sounds slow af lol

arian johnson No bro, that doesn’t even make sense

arian johnson I get what ur tryna say, but it makes no sense, people are always going to make what they want. The mainstream shit back then is still better than the shit today. They didn’t sell out, it’s called reaching the masses. Run DMC was mainstream and that was the early 80’s. That’s some of the earliest Hip Hop, and this being known why do u listen to rap then? It’s always been this way lol. If people stayed underground forever it would’ve never been known all over the world like it is today. So you can thank these so-called sell out rappers

Also Come Get Me

notknowing what's that doom ?

Straight orginal OG along with bro AZ

This nas album is not good for people who didn't want nas to elevate, can't be talking about the same stuff . he switched it up and I felt it

All caps when you spell the man name

notknowing yoo I been saying this, the remix with DOOM instrumentals makes it sound like a totally different album. Nas was spitting hard shit even on that album

Feng Sta you do realise thst everybody said this was trash

I love the song as well. I have no idea why so many people seem to hate it?

I think that most people judge this song from the video because this song’s track is from another older classic HipHop song.. “Let The Funk Flow” by EPMD. If the video was shot in the projects with 1000 people all hooded out, they’d be singing a different tune. This is a straight up banger.

Even the video is dope

Songs good hook suxks

not a bad album, just a little bit (well a lot) more commercial than illmatic.

Compared to Illmatic and It Was Written, this album was bad.

***** Yeah that's true but in comparison to most of his other albums with the exception of it was written this one has more of a commercial vibe to it. But I do agree with you it was a mediocre, boring, uninteresting album.

@Robert The Genius true

we give it a good star

JBs Monorail

EPMD - Let the Funk flow

The hook streight Mayweather

deadass

It was considered commercial at that time but it does hit different today!!!

agreed .

Could've said it better

Agreed takover was the Spark he needed to making better music with Stillmatic and God's Son.

***** they say its bad because its basically "i am" cd 2

The song and the video go together tho, the video represents people hating him because of what he is and has, like Jesus.

Yeah, people are bugging’. This is that EPMD “Let The Funk Flow” beat. It’s straight up HipHop.. Lyrics is on point as usual…. What the debate about…..?

If Nas were a new rapper and Nastradamus had been released this year, it would have received critical acclaim.

Agreed... they are trippin

@@gokuparaguaio1319 No it absolutely wouldn't, mfers would be crucifying that chorus lmao. Y'all live in a state of delusion.

Damn fam, i put Stillmatic at 4

Distant relatives though?

Untitled at Number 9??? I think I understand where you're coming from though. I didn't appreciate the "hype" around/leading up to Untitled. I thought Nas took the promotion way too far. In fact, he nearly compromised the album by overdoing it with the promotion. But if you listen to Sly Fox, Slave and the Master, Southern Fried Chicken, Queens Get The Money (Intro), Louis Farrakhan, Testify...I mean, that's easily six classics right there! I liked the whole album minus two or three tracks. I think the "Untitled" album is top 5 easily...it was a great conceptual album. Here's how I'd order it. 1. Illmatic 2. The Lost Tapes 3. Stillmatic 4. It Was Written 5. Untitled 6. Gods Son 7. I Am 8. Life is Good 9. Hip Hop is Dead 10. Streets Disciple 11. Nastradamus (this really is the worst in his entire catalog, but still LIGHT YEARS better than 85% of what's out there. Skits were really corny, but I think people fail to realize that "Project Windows" and "Life We Chose" were really good songs).

WTF ? Illmatic is one of the best album ever made,Nas say that it's his best album.

HHID at 10???
