This Song made me a Nas fan 💯🔥🐐
nodding ma head whenever I play this hit
Beyond that his Aura, the unseen of what makes one a Emcee
I’m Japanese.
Nas is very cool because Nas have good flow.
I’m from America. My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Japan someday. Any places you recommend we check out? Peace and love from Michigan
@@DominicMeersseman If you like HIPHOP, Sendai may be a good place.
Other locations include Tokyo Sky Tree and Asakusa.
What are some great places in America?
@@Taku-oz6pj I’m from Detroit, same place as the legendary producer J-Dilla. So if you like hip-hop or Motown there’s a lot of cool record stores to check out. The sand dunes are very cool to see as well in Michigan. NYC would probably be a smart move too, there’s a lot of different cultures there and plenty of cool landmarks. Thank you for taking the time to respond to me. I appreciate it very much
Nas lyrics always illuminate
Immortal technique and dread prez too
Who's listening with me in 2024?shout out to all O G's KEEPING IT REAL

No show off? Apart from making a song about himself and having bare people jumping around in the background lol

Nas & Premier
The dynamic duo.
Premier rocks mad with anyone but his dynamic duo will always be Guru. My opinion.
This was the end of the best decade of hiphop.
What about DOOM tho?
+Joseph Dowse MF doom is tru
NYC still held it down in the early 2000s... Cam & rockafella...
+ilya Kozlov lox, DMX, rule, fab... G unit... NY in the early 2000s was fire...
+Marc NY yeah. But it still wasn't as good as the 90's. 50 cent was pretty garbage. Lyrically you can't compare him to Nas here.
As a 17 year old today, it’s hard to get my friends into rap like this. Nas changed my life and I’ll never forget his legacy...HBD Legend
Dxnzo ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️ i’m 17 too Nas is the illest lyricist of them all 💯
I definitely feel you Dxnzo 13 years ago when I was 16 this changed my life. While everyone was snapping I was listening to Nas and I’d show my friends but they just wanted to wear tall tees and dance 😂😂
You got good taste guy, this came out when I was 16 and it still goes hard👍
@@jahbuzzin8392 '02 GANG... born in last gen

This what hip hop is supposed to sound like and look like. Let’s have a toast to Nas 🤝🏾
No doubt!!
Respect.
Amen
"Define My Name" brought me back here to this classic ⭐🔥
same
Likewise brother!
Nas and Preem are as organic as any other MC-Dj duo of all time
I asked a friend if he knew who Nas was
He said "Oh yeah,i love lil Nas"
We re not friends anymore
Wise choice my guy 😤
Who the fuck is lil nas?
If I were the friend I would’ve asked which one lol
@@ignacionieto8080 the old town road guy
Same pic
Biggie got the flow. Pac got the message. Nas got both.
Can agree with that
Nas doesn't have a flow IMO. He's got lyrics though. Big and Jay Z have flow. Pac had the ability to capture an emotion on record and make you feel it.
Just compare the feelings you get when you listen to I Gave you Power by Nas vs Me and My girlfriend by 2Pac. Both songs about a gun but both give off a different energy.
Nas structure is randomly thought out. In this skill, even Big L surpasses it it's just that he wasn't given time to mature it.
I prefer a dude to be a master of a skill in the craft than a jack of all trades like Nas is.
That's why Pac and Biggie are more memorable and even Jay Z are in more top 5s than Nas will ever be.
😬😬 nas better than jay z at least i like him wayyy better
PAC and boogie have both as well 😂
It doesn't get more Hip Hop than this.
Nasir Jones the immortal.

I accidentally clicked in a Lil Pump song, so I came here to clean my soul.
I know you guys hate self promoters but please hear me out. I'm different than other rappers, I rap about stuff that makes a difference. I recently got bullied in school and I wrote a song about that. They bullied me cause I'm indian, my accent and a lot of other stuff as well. The song is called "k grip hope" I think you guys should listen to it so you know what it was like for me. Thanks for listening to me, please be kind to others whether you listen or not.
Unknown User shi dog says this was posted a min ago I’ll give you my honest opinion I’ll check it out see if it cold just got to finish the song first

When hip hop was hip hop

This is the definition of real hip hop
I've been amazed by this song since it came out, and decades later, it's still blowing my mind. Listening now with ears and a mind that are 25 years older and wiser, I'm picking up on so much depth I missed before. Simply magnificent.
AND he was freaking young back then!
A true prodigy.
Facts.
Respect.
У меня есть эта песня на русском языке. На аудио кассете вот записал я на диктофон

Best comment ive seen in awhile.
I like that Nas is flexing his personality rather than luxury brands.
sporting the flight jacket and pants letting that QB chain pop
Don't forget that Rolex
@@pillarman Rolex is an investment bro
That’s what kept him so authentic and the face of hip hop he kept it about the lyrics and talent
That's called representive rap
Nas Is my favorite rapper AND the best real rapper there Is till this Day all His music Is hot
the greatest MC's of all time
Nasty Nas 🤴
- Yo Nas you ready?
- Ready when you are Prem.
- Aight
*and the rest is history*
legendary intro man
Masha 131 Preem
Masha 131 Its DJ Premier but his nickname is Prem
wtf
“I don’t know how to start this shit” is better tho
Ghostface Killah best intro of all time imo
This song is perfect. Captivating lush beat and every line is impactful but yet approachable and digestible.
+Rondo TheStreets Solid example of someone jealous of anothers capacity to speak properly lol
+Robert Hilduson thank you I was wondering how else I should have shown my love for this song lol
+Rondo TheStreets if you don't get the hell outta here trying to regulate and dumb down my analysis lol. Nas would be side eyeing you right now.
+Rondo TheStreets what sounds "white" about what I said?! Nas has lyrics way deeper than what i said maybe he raps too "white" for you then
+Stroke Of Death (Pretty Boy) I have been ignoring it lol
That's crazy I never noticed Ron Artest in this video before at 1:25...epic!
one of the best rap songs of all time
The creativity of lyrics and ideas from this man is unimaginable. He's only part of a handful of artists that can create such a vivd picture with his words. the only other rapper that comes to mind is stann smith and maybe kendrick. the fact that he just won his first grammy is mind numbing. We will appreciate this man when he's no longer able to release music but I rather give him his flowers now while he can smell them. Thanks for everything Nas.
Cole is pretty good too
you nailed it
shouldve won a grammy for illmatic
his first grammy smh
U said it all
1:08
And of course N-A-S are the letters that spell...
gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it !
same wtf
Biste aus Köln?
Dude same every time
yup
Me too
dj premier + nas= clássico do rap !
This is my favorite rap song of all time, nothing comes close to it.
Nas is a perfect example of a well rounded MC, not only does he have an elite level of lyrical skill, he mixes it with so many poetry techniques, vivid storytelling, intellectual lyrics, amazing imagery, substance, deep lyrics, etc. He's just a special talent, such a well rounded MC and lyricist.
This is perfectly stated.
10 out of 10 comment . Esco has everything man
Word
He's half man half amazing like he said
I could not have said it any better my Brother 👍👍😁😁🔥🔥
Nas is truly a LEGEND but yall ain’t ready to hear that until he’s dead💯
True🥺
Nah we been knew that
true hes so underrated
@@goldnblvck3957 I wouldn’t say he’s underrated, he’s pretty well known
It'll be a sad day when that happens
I adore this song, the flow, the story, the lyricism, imaculate and actually holds meaning.
Nas is amazing with his lyricism he inspired me and many others and kept his flow and never changed his style
"Much success to ya, even if you wish me the opposite. Sooner or later we'll all see who the prophet is".... The illest line ever from Nas in my opinion
Gave me goosebumps
what are the fucking odds that EXACTLY on the point he sings this line i read this comment
holy shit illuminati confirmed
Noy Morgen wtf i had that too😱
Nebras Kreny you right. Brain fart when I typed this comment.
Still one of the most flawlessly delivered and produced rap tracks of all time. Top 5 track of all time from any genre.

Blessed to be among the generation that witnessed this lyrical mastermind ❤ 💯 🔥
30 years later, still a classic. Nas is like eternity!
Beat is hypnotising. DJ Premier is one of the greatest producers of all time and having Nas flow over it makes this a beautiful little song.

Early 2000s too with stuff like MMLP dropping
All downhill from there
This track never gets old !!!
This track is a masterpiece.
Two days ago, nas won his first grammy, respect, he is a legend
We don't need the grammys to recognize our talent
@@youngblackking3255 that’s true however hip hop is a biz and white people got lots of money so it’s nice to add a Grammy to all your other trophies.
@Paul George Brutha you missed the whole point I was making. Never mind tho carry on.

@Paul George [COD M] White rappers get more credit, more people know Eminem than Biggie and Nas combined

Yip
Still have to come back to celebrate a great Moorish king nas I was born in 1985-2024 classic study study study
Nas always has the sickest of beats. . .True rap legend
"First it was Nasty but times have changed, ask me now I'm the artist - but hardcore - my science for pain" whooooooooooo
It's "my sign's for pain"
scoobies84 no, it's 'science'
"First it was Nasty" - He was called Nasty Nas.
"But times have changed, ask me now I'm the artist" - He compares himself to Prince, who was called "The Artist" when he had that label dispute. Prince had a "sign" instead.
"But hardcore, my sign's for pain"
Supreme Clientele
spelling his name out too
first it was (N)asty
now im the (A)rtist
(S)igns of pain
NAS
Fuck, that's wild.
2021💪
Yessir
Always
Yessirrrr
yeah bro straight from Ukraine. nas in 2021
I know I'm old when all the modern rap sounds like garbage to me and this sounds less corny and dated than that somehow.
Espectacular
As i m listening to this i dont know what is kickin me in.. feeling euphoric and happy as high
'A baby is being born the same time a man is murdered the beginning and end'
After all these years this still hits different
I made this beat inspired with Nas is like , if anyone can give a listen ? ua-cam.com/video/zfolridy-Ts/v-deo.html
Came back to this after hearing the announcement of Nas & Premo dropping a joint today 💯 Their might be a collab album 🙈
He isn’t just a rapper, but a story teller
no autotune.
no flexing.
no half naked girls.
just a true hip hop piece of art, by one of the greatest to ever do it.
Real talk
Yup
He flexed his chain and money. Just saying
@@rico.p he said on reach out you see the shit i wear you have to live that life then rock it after. A reminder he came from poverty and made his own fortune he’s proud of. No more hustling.

I agree this song is amazing.
Music with substance! Nas is like half poet, half rapper.
Norman Kelly he’s half man, half amazing
@@jessebabatunde437 True! I know that he says that in the song. I wanted to elaborate on his skillset. There's not enough words to explain his greatness.
Rap means rhythm and poetry
A real rapper is suppose to be a poet, poetry was the root of hip-hop. If your not a poet your just an entertainer.
the lyrics of a poet and the voice of a rapper
"Freedom or jail, clips inserted, a baby's being born
Same time a man is murdered; the beginning and end
As far as rap go, it's only natural I explain
My plateau, and also, what defines my name"
Sickest intro into a verse😭🐐🔥
As far as rap go/ it’s only natural I explain my plateau and also/ what “defines my name”
I can see that being the sample for this new track dropping tonight!
This song makes me feel happy and sad at the same time.
Wodchly same
Word!
Wodchly but also motivating, right? 'Cause we can see RR and some other high end shit...it should motivates us to realize our dreams somehow...i dunno
This man gave me hope! God bless NAS!
Does it make you sad because of the way hip hop has gone?
One of the sickest beats Premo has produced till date. Nas’s flow is impeccable. One of the greatest hip hop tracks ever made. Period.
True that!This beat is actually hella good
preach
I got to agree with you on that. The lyrics and beat are the sickest I've heard till this day.
Word Bro,Awesome Lyrics
You know, as god tier Nas is, the more i think about it; he be having some wack beats. His hits be on point, but for every one good instrumental, 5 be pretty bad.
