Finally Nas and Joey Ba$$ on a track. I remember during an interview back in 2015 Joey was asked what artist he’s dying to work with and he goes “Naaaaaasir” lol. Been waiting ever since.
@@michaelwoods3799 yep, I'd say like since '10. almost nothing of value on regular radio, r&b or rap. if you got college or indy radio nearby you get better stuff
Tracks like this from Nas at this age definitely solidifies him as the 🐐 Around 30 years of elite lyricism, great content, messages, soulfulness, features, classics and his music gets better with age.
He's definitely up there but for me Masta Ace is the GOAT and most consistent emcee hip hop has ever seen. He has thrived in four decades of hip hop; It doesn't get any better than that .
"Possessed by Marcus Garvey, the vessel, the body, ancestors inside me." Sheesh!!! Nas is not playing this year!!! This could have been on Kings Disease. #TheRealKingOfNewYork
On The Season he rhymed : "...let me make this clear, they fear the gifted/ some say Shakespeare never existed..." I tell you in a 100 years some will also doubt Nas ever lived. Such is the fate of those mortals who dare enter the realm of the gods.
I can't tell how you how happy tracks like this make me. I been listening to hip hop since I was little boy, De La Soul, Beastie, NWA, Tribe. To hear this type of shit makes my head bop, heart speed up, mind start to think. It's no disrespect to radio rap but that shit don't do it for me. This that REAL for me that will always keep me passionate about the art of emceeing and mastering of ceremonies as well as production and the other elements.
@@timothymedina96 not enough "bitches" and "hoes" in his lyrics. Only up bringing, being positive and bettering yourself so that'll never happen but I 100% agree with you!!
NaS is vino of the game, gets better with time and scientific about it. His prime golden years of flow to me was 01'-08. Hip hop is dead is my favorite NaS album
True. He needs to link up with all the young skilled talent acts and lyricists from all over NY. It don’t have to be from a borough, it can be other parts of NY.
Yo Joey Can Hold His Own With Top Tier Lyricists Such As Raekwon & Black Thought On "Birds Eye View" Freddie Gibbs On "Carry On Tradition" Which Are Statik Selektah Joints "Golden Era" With Royce Da 5'9" "In The Wind" With Your Old Droog & Styles P "Underground Airplay" With Big K.R.I.T & Smoke DZA Just To Name A Few Now This? Man Joey Been Official Since His "1999" Mixtape! Peace To Nas And Statik Selektah On This Gem "Keep It Moving" After 2020 We Have To.....
