Why wasn't this fucking verse ever used by Nas? That shit was straight FIRE! How people gonna say he fell off after Illmatic, brotha was way better in 96' word is bond! Nas' competition is himself, aint nobody fuckin with him!
Alex Stafonis nas best shit is unreleased. for example ice on gold/ from Mossbergs to golf clubs/ ninth hole the white Rose/ The life I chose/ bandanna over The eye dior sandals /car door rise without touching the handle/ capeesh capri styling on beaches and islands/ far from police sirens/ at least for the weekend then it's back to the streets creepin /id like to share a free toast of champagne on behalf of my nigga speakin /add a splash of the seagrams /role the hash for my world renoun goons this evening /as I circle the table like babe Ruth/ Louisville slugger in my grip for a fake dude /bat to the brain with brute force splattered my cream valour suit/ they hit me with lawsuits/ I skip in ya whores coup ya bitch hate you word to HeyZuse/ betcha neva knew she toot yay and play with a gay crew....... -nas
His flow is water tho he rhymes the right words at the right time. I absolutely love this verse. I honestly don't even know Nas verse and I just realized Nas has a whole song to this without Nature. Nature absolutely bodied this. When the beat is right Nature is absolutely incredible. Look at how he set off Banned from TV. He's effortless with it or at least it sounds like it.
Nate's first few bars are better than anything i've heard in years....and he's barely even trying LMAO...you gotta be fucking kidding.....they both effortlessly destroyed this shit
Clark Kent this was nas golden point but jay has had epic joints and verses all over clue during this same time... they are both of elite status... I mean if your a nas can you can't knock can I live and where I'm from by hov
Malachi Young I agree with every word you said and I consider myself to be the supporter for ESCO since live at the barbecue and I was so sick when hov was shitting on him in the beginning of their war but I never lost faith and then what happened, he launched that napalm bomb and put hov and the game back there proper place 😎😎😎
Poke: “We actually put 'Shootouts' out as a freestyle with Nature and Nas on a DJ Clue? mixtape. It seemed so crazy that we were just like, 'Yo lets just make it a whole record and put it on the album.' So that’s what it was, and it was a chance to put Nature out there and stuff like that. Although Nature is not on the final version, he was on the version that we put out. Nas loved the beat and he just wanted to go. He was like, 'Yo I’m going to air this out myself.'
Back in the day all of the Queens rappers were all cool together. It would Have been cool if they all just made music together seeing as they were from the same area.
You bugging son... Need the green yo R.i.p. to nee-no Who left the world busting the 44 beeno 'guess ill meet you in the sequel heavy thoughts on my cerebral makes me wanna stash the desert eagle wherever we go I hate wakes and burials hospitals and heart patients bitches with scar-fa-ces narks hidden in dark places CLUE CLUEE CLUEE CLUEE CLUE
He a Nas wannabe tho. Copied his whole style. Listen to the flow and cadence and then replace his voice in your head with Nas'. It's like listening to a slightly lesser Nas. Nature's best verses are with Nas. It's like was trying to outnas Nas lol.
Trapped in the cold world naked and ashamed /// Blunts flame /// My NI@#az locked up under alias names /// Hurry up and bail em /// Before his finger prints match /// warrants will start popping up /// Other problems will hatch
When Nas turned this Freestyle into the song Shootouts on his It Was Written album they didn't put Nature on it. Poke who's one of the song's producers said: "We put Shootouts out as a freestyle with Nature and Nas on a DJ Clue? mixtape. But it was so crazy that we thought, “Yo, let’s make it a whole record and put it on the album.” Although Nature is not on the final version, he was on the version that we put out.

I've easily got hundreds of not thousands of bars burned into my brain from Cormega, Nas, Nature, and many more QB and NY artist but Nature is the only artist that I can spit his whole verse from top to toe at the drop of a hat.
@Ascension 100....nature says,...dearly departed/ for yrs I reminiscence inhalin' chocolate/.... That verse was sick from start to finish!..nature always had that fire, mega was nice too..but if lames don't understand it then they hate..I probably listen to more underground cats then these mainstream lanes..especially from 95-96.
RIP uncle Vincent may god open the gates of heven for me I saveed my grandsons life by telling him to go back a England .God my Granduncle saved a life lLet him enter the gates of heven for me if not for me alone I love u uncle Vincent. RIP I SEE U WHEN I I GET THERE
Nature came in the game like a animal, I wish I could send this shit to my nigga in the feds right now, he used to bang the shit outta this. This shit is classic!
