[JBlake0000]

[dagrimeyone12]

how can any prik dislike this ?!

[AK47wivme]

1 of best track of all time....

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

those intro lyrics are prolly some of the sickest words I ever heard spit behind a mic nigga. Sometimes thats how u gotta move.

[ninja911again]

get all the old prsioner of war in mexio and all jails out that are cowboys and crestions all of them cowboys out of jail now with the mustashes

[MrsHeard1]

naz is the realist rapper

[dondantata]

wew! 'sublime lyrics'.........nas = genius

[Lookout4the3rdrail]

i laugh, because j went at a dude like this, but mf are just stupid

[Lupeisbeast]

@Lookout4the3rdrail hey, if youre gonna do it, go big. right?

[MoneyTalks1132]

what happened to rap? in my opinion the early 90s rap scene was when it was at its best. mid 90s was good as well. id say it started leaning towards trash around the beginning of the 2000s. great cd. best mc.

[jt101194]

@MoneyTalks1132 i agree that early rap shit is fire the beats are so simple but dope and catchy and not every rapper is rapping about bricks and killing niggas rap these days shouldnt even be called rap(dont get me wrong a few rappers are still keeping it real nas, jay z, weezy, esc)but alot of rap now is just rediculess beats and too many fake niggas

[gethefoxout]

@btastings jay z sucks too its all about nas and others i cant think right now

[TheEazyDuzIt95]

Weak ass beat

[jayrich510]

"do not speak to fools they scorn the wisdom of ya words"

....that shit is outta here an this album over 10 yrs old

[techatyou]

Jay z is main stream nas could care less as long as his message is out there

[Shiftee88]

yea Jay Z is wack these days

[Mah0tma]

jay z makes fantasy comic book raps about super hustlers!

Nas makes songs about the everyday struggle of real people

jay z is a FICTION rapper

nas speaks the TRUTH

"read the history but who's the authors/ for some the game is easy, for most of us the game much harder!"

[J3YB33]

@Mah0tma I just realised what you said is so true after reading Jay-z's Decoded.

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

@Mah0tma this first verse is prolly one of the sickest verses ever made even better then pac's and I know thats a brash statement but he says ALOT of real shit relatable shit real shit.....

[drewgilchrist]

@Mah0tma Um might i add that Jay Z is a super Hustler... LOL

[jerseyratbastard]

@Mah0tma I don't know man...it depends what you're in the mood for. I love steak but sometimes a good hamburger hits the spot, ya dig?

[MadeinBangladesh0235]

@Mah0tma I get what you sayin... NAS makes you THINK... also If you dont know Immortl Technqiue, Go check him out... one of the best

[MrSlla222]

@Mah0tma but the worlds culture is more then new york. its more the united states.

fantasy comic book raps about super hustlers is what not the root of a tribe who believes in rhythm of life

since im still in the struggle all i can say is get more educatation. move on to what you want to be. what you need to be. move on.

[thepablopog]

shity DJ..

[CharizardYoda]

i guess i eat dick cuz jay-z is (and always has been) overrated fucking garbage.

[NewMoney90100]

@CharizardYoda couldn't agree more !!!

[chevypimp80]

do not seek to fools thay will scorn the wizdom of your words!

[misaelcxl]

fuck Jay Z ( ALA VERGA ESE PUTO )

[misaelcxl]

fuck Jay Z

[Jamicss]

Regulate Nigga!!!

[ClocksR1]

if i wanna listen to real hip hop i gotta get on youtube! am i getting old or has hip hop been ruined my corporate america..I m white..how yall let these rich white biatchs who dont appreciate hip hop ruin hip hop?

[Mocredible]

@ClocksR1 I think it all starts with these radio stations playing garbage music. They are the ones who's destroying hiphop! Because they flooding peoples ears 24hours a day with wack rappers, who have nothing else to talk about.. So, they flood the industry with fabricated life stories. This is why hiphop is going down the drain.

Noone wants to hear about someone shooting or selling drugs all the time. Thats not showing true skills. People need to get on that poetic level and spit realness.

[2400N0RDV35T]

Is Nas a muslim yes or no? i dont care what he is but i would be proud if he is a muslim some tell me?

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

[TheEazyDuzIt95]

Dame Grease can't produce for shit

[biggame1190]

[bloodz4life117]

[shonha1]

@bloodz4life117 Sun ain't a racist fam, it's like he says in this joint "does hurt come from the honest word", some people just can't handle the truth, thats all, do u know how many more Haters he got after that TESTIFY joint off the Untitled album, alotta folks from the burbs caught feeling after they heard that song

[mastercdawg101]

nas is the best rapper ever



[LWebb1000]

The 4 ppl who hit the dislike button are Jay-z dickriders!

[shithappensabc123]

[TheSickestVendetta]

@danteharris268 I'd say Nas is second. Rakim is the greatest in my opinion.

[ishus69]

nas the illest 

[TheDarkshadow29]

immortal technique

[Mah0tma]

Fo some the game is easy, for most of us the game is much harder!

he aint never lie!

[grandchamp3]

national geo soon law says this > new orleans refugee them hollywood think... lol,,, this real pope fucked kids OH NO

[MrJoiner5]

i know alot of people say Illmatic was his best album but my fav is I Am. Best album of all time in my opinion. This song proves it

[Mah0tma]

@MrJoiner5 I understand what you mean BUT by I AM (album #3) people were ready for NAS, in 1992 when illmatic came out this quality of lyricism was so AMAZING, unheard of, unimaginable, unexplainable . . . its like your first love, even if she was not your best love!

[gameofdeath203]

@MrJoiner5 thank you i be telling ppl this is by far his best album.

[tommybrown187]

we gotta be Gods children/habitats is tall buildings

[casperdademon09]

Readin history, but who's the authors?

For some the game is easy, for most of us the game is much harder

But never lose faith; through the years just get smarter

Ghetto prisoners.. ghetto prisoners..

Illmatic shit!!

[peligroso718]

loved this album!

[emsx0xx]

OMG this is in a LIGHTS song hahaha

[RebelliousChief72]

Best emcee ever.

[quaymello1]

old nas(1990-2001) > new nas(2000-now)

[RelaxednCaIm]

@quaymello1

um, how can new nas start at 2000 if old nas ends at 2001?

[lukeslonergan]

4 people disliked this track by mistake lol you cant dislike Nasty nas

[TheRenaissanceman891]

4 people don't like this song? that means 4 people have no taste in music, you don't have to be into or like hip hop to feel this song this type of Hip Hop is everyones music, Peace!!

[darrick1972]

No one...ever

[ButterlySmuckers]

i fricken hate wen people say that..ouviously u shouldnt be doin stuff against the law. not all cops r crooked.. the streets is bad already but not as bad as it could be if people werent fearful of them.u say fuc the cops but i'll bet u the type that'll dial 9-11 if ur homie was shot and dropped on the spot..

[DaProlifik1reaLyrics]

@ButterlySmuckers anybody would call 911 unless there was some legal reason why not to in that situation, or the wound wasn't that serious, in which case they would hopefully take em to the hospital themselves ASAP. 911 can send ambulances too genius, it's not just for police. Not all cops are crooked, but their training teaches them to entrap people. That's their job, they're paid to arrest people, not find the truth or justice. So even if they're not corrupt according to their law, fuck them.

[ballboy234]

his lyrics can compare to tupacs.

[FedorByRape]

@ballboy234 His lyrics exceed Tupac's

[rmassie11]

The world'll need it, to hear it

Evil tries to weaken my spirit - it's chronic HERB

This hurt come from the honest WORD

I NOW try hardest to serve my maker, what I learned

find it's way on the PAPER, so I could dictate it

Articulate it, luckily - I was put on one of the ships that MADE it

through strong currents and winds that left the others stranded

to sink in the Atlantic.......WOWWWWW

im srry better than anything that big or 2-pac said.... Just my thoughts

[TreyCH11]

i just get in a zone once his verses start

[streetz107]

[jaskelalyal09]

[yankessnperu]

Legend....he owns his own level.....dont be a fool and mix him with lollipop rappes of today

[bmorekid897]

@youngimu he never stated his relgion he has said some things that sound Christain and some other things he has said sound Islamic, so we don't know his true relgion only he knows.

[marrocco911]

[sexsistyles]

yeah so they say....

[ftpb1]

fuck the police

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

Fuck Pigs...

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

@ftpb1 we need a revolution against law enforcement. All they do is arrest us for no reason. If your wrong you know ur in the wrong but when they bag out of thin air. Wtf is that?

[EricPowellAKAELPJ]

who's to be prasied, the mighty doller, or a mighty allah! deep!

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

God is not nor does no evil. evil is a product of man. In the longrun Mighty Allah or the same God we ALL believe in no matter what u wanna call him we all believe in GOD the creator. He is more imporant then these fuckin punk ass thugs and gangstaz in your current hood. I live where its nice and white now but even out here these kids try and act tough and im not exactly the biggest guy but at the end of the day u can have the biggest muscles in the world but guns, bombs or any weapon KILLS!

[EricPowellAKAELPJ]

@ShutTheFuckUp0809 I agree with u. Its so true.

[Russell911]

are u muslim. just wondering. u keep it real thou

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

nah i no religion. But I believe

[docterneushaartje]

I am=God

His lyrics go deep,but to put urself as God.

[docterneushaartje]

You heard that song with j,kanye nd rihanna we run this.throwing signs piramided in ya face.Their the puppets.Not the underground rappers wich are keepin it real

[GeGeMus12]

dayu, mah niggah Nas goes hard. Tell em' son!

[ibistanley]

Nasir the King, no doubt.. peace

[davidjalb34776]

realest song ive ever heard...deep shit, genious

[godsonply]

[Squirtdog1515]

[tommybrown187]

[IProphetI]

@Squirtdog1515 why are u trying to find that weak ass song?

[hyastu]

Oochie wally

[mimuena]

My favorite album from NASIR.. best MC dat ever grabbed a mike..

[Rsaint17]

the beat is different from nas' previous stuff, a bit more late 90's.....still the shit none the less

[USuckMyMuthaFucknAss]

well...this album did come out in 1999

[fukengr8]

this was my brother fav song RIP MEELS

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

Like Castro over threw Bautista...

[RocnRed9]

Why the fuck is that every video you go on there is some stupid debate over pac? Just fuckin enjoy the music and take your dumb ass little debate elsewhere.

[chaaoos]

fierycod? oh, you mean your mom's fish that was all burnt up from diseases? yeah.

[chaaoos]

hahaha, I got a thumbs down for my "best rapper alive" comment. who's better than Nas right now? who?

[fierycod]

Your mother.

[2XdarkskyX2]

Rakim....

[BTastings]

@chaaoos Fuck these haters. NaS is the last of a dying breed. No rapper out right now (exception Jay Z) can put words together in a such a meaningful way like Nasty NaS. Any who disagree can eat a dick! NaS is the last of a dying breed. A true MC.

[dominickmckesson]

@BTastings nigga u eat a dik u beter take jay z out their and put in rakim raekwon krs 1 the game n their dog

[hulknas]

@BTastings fuck these new booties niggaz..they don't know nothing about lyrics and true MC'ing. Like Nas said in this song..." Do not speak to fools they scorn the wisdom of your words"

[ambersassy168]

@BTastings LOS S.C. 29010, Jay -Z is no exception, h don't make tracks like these, he 's not a real m.c. All of his albums are of fashion and fame, not reppin real stret hustlers, ctas doin' real jail-time. ask cats in jail who they feel most j or nas, most will say nas, he makes songs abouth what we are actually going through, Jay -z laugh at poor blacks like whites. j is a disgrace to daddy kane and rakim.

[bachaka61]

@BTastings word, but esco better than hov!!

[Nahasapeemapetilon93]

@BTastings

Jay-z is a fuck, he used to be good, but  he sold his soul for fame and money, so fuck him, he isnt real like nas

[LegendarySSJBrolyBx]

@BTastings What the hell? Jay-Z now? e_e'''

Disappointed you didn't mention Mr. Mef and the rest of the Wu. :/ Perhaps they're lyrically different from Nas, but they got dat flow.
