Doesn't matter if you listen to Nas, Lil Wayne, Drake, Pac, Jay Z, Kanye, Brotha Lynch Hung, or Keak Da Sneak, you gotta respect the creativity in this song. Even if your not a fan of Nas, you can't possibly hate on this cut. If you are a long time Nas fan, this song is probably classic to you...

If you hate Nas, before you hate on this song, please just listen closely to the lyrics & the story. Its 1 of the best of all time IMO... [ June 25, 2010, 10:50 PM: Message edited by: EPIK ]

Nobody can tell a story like Nas. Who else could right a song with a backwards story, or rap about being a gun?
This is another ill story IMO. The beat is very repetitive, but the way he tells the story like he is "the gun" is just ridiculous...

Yup, Nas is my fav of all time, but alot of times, he has too much filler on his recent albums. He needs to come with another strong album from start to finish like Illmatic. I can listen to that album all the way through.

Thats all good stuff. See if you listen closely to the nas rewind track, he is telling the whole story backwards. I guess, I just dig rappers that make you think little rather than just talking about how they are "the greatest", or what color their Aston martin is, or how many beezies they have LOL... Don't get me wrong, Nas has songs like that too, but he gets pretty deep as well. [ June 26, 2010, 01:40 AM: Message edited by: EPIK ]

That stuff is cool. No disrespect, but it sounds like you need to broaden your musical tastes. There is more out there than just bay music... [ June 26, 2010, 02:20 AM: Message edited by: EPIK ]

Told you, just gotta listen closely, everything is in reverse in that song. Its takes a pretty creative mind to write something like that.

Nas is sick... and I don't even listen to rap/hip-hop all that often.
i still think this song is pretty dope too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-cpL--0AQA
Honestly, I listened to rap up until about a year after Mac Dre died, and the bay got waaaayy too much attention and some of these (IMHO) garbage rappers got famous... I like E-40, and Andre Nickatina and Messy Marv are dope... but I can't stand many others...
