    People commenting about Lauryn Hill outrapping Nas on his own song need to understand that competition is not the goal when making music for the ages. The goal is to complement each other's contributions to the song. They did it perfectly, and that's including Hit Boy.
    I can't get enough, I love it.

    For anyone that actually grew up in the 90s while experiencing the culture and the music - hearing this track is like a breath of fresh air to you! Matter of fact, it gives you hope that there is a way out of the current mainstream ROTTEN condition of hip hop today! The classic delivery of Nas and Lauryn Hill takes you back to 95'/96' with raw lyrics and a neo-soul type of backdrop. New generation, take note of what organic hip hop sounds like!
