Never commercial, never sold his soul over money. He's real. Since the beginning. Since live at the barbecue, since illmatic till king's disease. A true poet. Nasty Nas in your area, 'bout to cause mass hysteria.

    You can feel the pain in Nas' voice when he's talking about Prodigy. Yes I had always heard the whole QB clique would always have internal beef in the hood. But out of town, CNN and their guys, Mobb Deep and their team, Bravehearts and their set would team up and cause serious damage to folks. I'm glad he was able to at least patch things up somewhat with Prodigy before he passed.

    • @jman1562001
      @jman1562001 4 роки тому +8

      It's hard when you got different crews from the hood all coming up in different stages of their career....and people on the outside probably was putting fuel to the fire which creates the rumors and the subtle tension. On the low they all loved each other but being young didn't know how to express it to one another because of where they were from. To have so many artist come up out of a project like Queensbridge is crazy and inspiring. it's dope to hear that prodigy was going to have TV show because he is so knowledgeable about a lot of subject matter that the world would have been blessed to gain from.

    It’s cool to hear Nas tell a story, it shows how clear his mind and perspective is cause you get a sense of how he writes his narrative by the way he iterates his story.
    I image him in the studio listening to a beat chopping it up with the fellas relating a story in his life that syncs with the beat and makes a masterpiece of it. Whether its the good or the dark side of his life there’s no judgement because it comes from a place where most people don’t have the courage to go and that’s his TRUTH. Much respect the GOAT!!!

      @@cristiancristoiu8235 I don't think Nas likes being predictable. Preme said he has been waiting for him to come thru for years. I think he doesn't want to be locked down with that "old school " sound which is why he is reaching out to Kanye and the hit-boys. All the vets trying to figure out how to stay relevant in the current music climate. That's why I think Em switched his flow style ylup and collaboration with Joyner and them
