  • whats the instrumental to dis? dis da mean freestyle beat!

  • @dsyde10 theres 3

  • NAS THA BEST RAPPER EVER AMEN

  • this song is a fixture of like every song on illmatic

  • yeah i thought hed be giant. i mean hes big but i think he should be bigger

  • Any of you guys hear Nas when he first came out?reply me yh what was your opinion on him when you first heard him

  • Nas is better then lil wayne by a lot. Im not sayin lil wayne sucks but he doesnt come close to nas

  • Lil wayne doesnt come close to nas. I dont care if lil wayne is played more on the radio or if he is at top of any charts. Nas would murder lil wayne anyday. I aint sayin lil wayne sucks cause he is ok but he isnt on nas level or close to it.

  • Nas was around my aged 17 here damn i feel dumb compared to him when i hear this older stuff

  • @ahmedgunner15 Dont. He never finished school past the 9th grade....however...reading is fundamental of course and obviously he read alot

  • @ahmedgunner15 Yeah man, keep going. Nas posted a picture of all the books he was reading last week. It was crazy. There were like 6 books that he was reading ALL AT THE SAME TIME. He might have been bad at school, but he's a clever guy.

  • @ScotchW10 yh, i think god set out a path for him like not going school then studieng the books then the rap career its a good thing he left school cos there woulda been conflicts between his education and his career

  • this is fucking siiiiiiicccccccckkk 

  • Life aint shit but stress fake niggas and crab stunts

  • What was the last verse from? Please answer.

  • You know what is amazing, this Demo Tape came out in 91(which was essentially Illmatic before the finishing touches). Nas was 18 in 91.

    He had already written the greatest hip hop album of all time before he was old enough to drink that is (think about that?). Everyone talks about how good Diggy Simmons is at 16 but i never hear people talk about how good Nas was for his age. he grew up to be the GOAT, Next to Rakim nobody can touch Nas

  • @HipHopHead5611

    this wasn't part of his demo tape... and of a lot of the so called "pre-illmatic" stuff was made after illmatic.

  • Comment removed

  • @RelaxednCaIm

    this is the same verse from Represent, so if it was made after illmatic, why is it on illmatic.

  • @HipHopHead5611

    did i say he made this verse after illmatic?

  • Nas is Mozart of Rap

  • definitly slowed down or somthin

  • I'm not crazy about most rap but this is AMAZING... I love Nas

  • the beat in the background is gangstarr's "gotta get over" large professor remix instrumental

  • i wonder what these people thought when they heard this guy for the first time..

  • @fadeout2135 when i heard nas for the first time.i nearly shit my self

  • this song is raw....u should listen to sagacity can i live

  • Yoooo just droping by to show love and to let you know a bit about the LETHAL MCZ. We're an up and coming hip hop movement from Miami. We just droped a new remix to Nas's HERO. Open your ears for our 2 cents and let us know what you think. Subscribe and comment for feed back. Much Love and God Bless

  • sick flo

  • what is this faggot saying about lil wayne ?? that shit is comercial hip hop, horrible songs , lil wayne got a crappy voice,when first i heard lil wayne , my ears started bleeding ... HAHAH ...NAS IS WAYY BETTER ... thumbs up if you agree ... obviously that you'll agree... PEACE

  • Nas is one of the realest. He's comes into our shop quite a bit to cop kicks, his sneaker game is ill like his mic skills. Shouts out.

  • this shit right..THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE. ay yo this shit right is dope my nigga. ya heard. lol

  • @Jeff: thanks atleast there's someone who knows there shit

  • That's because lil Wayne is commercial ya dumb fucks . Damn fucking idiots. I'm not gonna waist no energy on typing on that note. Commercial / underground compair lilwayne music to nas . Who gets more radio play enough said

  • Nasty Nas got that ghetto hip hop!

  • i guess he is the best alive... maybe ever

  • WEezy is th ebest nigguhh

  • @LilWayneTheBestMC No the fuck he isn't. Weezy is killing Hip-Hop along with every other mainstream rapper. You obviously don't know what Hip-Hop is and it seems that the music you listen to is deffecting your typing because a majority of people who listen to Lil wayne i know is a dumbass. Your a good example. Don't comment back if you don't have anything real to say.

  • @KLiP5z617 First off you must be white as hell, lmfao Weezy's carter 3 (weak album sold more sales than illmatic so tell me how's nas better than wayne

  • @LilWayneTheBestMC You're obviously one of those idiots who thinks that record sales is the same thing as talent. With that logic you might as well say that Soulja Boy is better than Immortal Technique just because Soulja Boy has a platinum album. Even MC hammer went diamond. Quit trolling every real hip-hop video. It just furthers the stereotype that all Lil'wayne fans are fucking retarded.

  • @LilWayneTheBestMC Your obviously brainwashed by the industry if you think music sales makes you a good rapper. Im not white im puerto rican and race has nothing to do with anything. Nas kills everything you listen to now a days and if you dont think so then you dont know what hip-hop is. I can see you dont listen to lyrics because mainstream music is just feeding the youth false facts about money,bitches,cars,ect and you allow it. You need to face facts and stop riding Lil Wayne.

  • @LilWayneTheBestMC dude I completely agree with you.. Weezy KIIIILLLSSS Nas. By the way, google search "50 greatest rappers 2007" and just look who is #4

  • @dylanthewidge ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY!!!! WAYNE DOESN'T EVEN WRITE HIS OWN MATERIAL YOU NON HIP HOP KNOWING DICK RIDING ASSHOLE

  • @JEFFCLEVANDR haha i dont use this account anymore so i didnt see this until now. i was making fun of him and egging him on. i hate wayne, Nas is my favorite, then redman, common, raekwon, mos def etc.

  • @dylanthewidge oh... Then I apologize for the insults

  • @LilWayneTheBestMC Put both of them in a battle WHERE THEY COME WITH THEIR OWN MATERIAL Nas will kill him...... Actually correction Nas will win by default cause Cheezy will have nothing to say because he doesn't write his own material!!!

  • @JEFFCLEVANDR People say Lil wayne was Hip-hop's death and some kind of conspiracy shit about wayne being in the illuminati so some shit, people can talk and talk all day but what are they really changing that's what I'm getting at. I don't spread opinions I spread facts and my fact is that Weezy runs the game no better than nas but no less. He even made a album in jail. Although I gotta say some nad shit is pretty ill.

  • @LilWayneTheBestMC shut the f*ck up u know nothing about rap...lil wayne sucksssssssss..I've been listening to hip hop since the beginning of the 90's and if u did too u wouldn't even compare the two..vanilla ice sold alot so does britney, does that mean they're better than Nas? throw weezy in the trash he's a flame in the wind, Nas is the sun

  • @LilWayneTheBestMC No. Just No

  • i think people misunderstand what a freestyle is....you could write a 16 or how many bars you want...i think thats classified as a freestyle....if you spit it without writint its a freestyle as well...you could write a 16 that never gets put on a song....FREE- STYLE....examine the word!.... u cud write out a freestyle...it doesn't make a song...if you were to write 36 to 52 bars...and no chorus...that could very well be...a freestyle, a wild verse with no song...FREESTYLE, get it rite bitches

  • wat the fuck is the last drum beat been tryin to find out for so long

  • Some of these are on illmatic

  • 1:04 yo ya betta git on time kid. lol

  • how can anyone dislike this?

  • Vintage Nas in the "Illmatic" era (pre-matic). So many will disagree with what I'm about to say, but I'ma say it anyway... cuz I don't believe I'm wrong. People praise Nas for his early to mid-90s music, but the truth is that he's even illa now. I mean just think about it... he's excelled beyond the grimiest of lyricism... now he's spittin that "Patience" type poeticism on the new "Distant Relatives" album with Damian Marley. In essence, I may be amongst a very few, but Nas is illa than eva.

  • @poetryselite Your right man. He hasn't lost his talent of lyricism but i wouldn't say as good as his 90's music. People think he "feel off" but haven't even heard any of his new joints.

  • Sense The Verses Made illmatic was it still a freestyle???

  • "Touch ya temple and leave ya leakin when Im speakin/The shit that I b freakin gives me papers while Im sleepin/ I walk around mega-hard like whatever God/ U couldnt count how many niggas my baretta scarred/ I like the marijuana smokin chicks, most of them I smoke em with couldnt take it: MY GANJA LEFT EM MOTIONLESS!" WUT? just insane..

  • Comment removed

  • Please listen to my demo. thats the name of the mixtape. has all sorts of pre illmatic joints. straight fire

  • this is slowed down compared to the actual tape

  • yeah it is, nas' voice used to be mad high

  • @Borough81 whats the actual song? or album?

  • @Nichi1000 the actual song is "represent" from "illmatic"

  • "I'm mean like Idi Amin"

    UUUhghhghgggrrrimy

  • I can remember pissin in this girls Elevator with my boys laughin while i'm singing this verse..Haha, NAS brings back the most hype memories...

  • would you let Nas piss on your chest ???

  • @SuckingBallsYumYum Only if he was wearing fatigues!

  • "The type of nigga who be pissin in your elevator" Represent Represent yeahhhhhhh

  • the best rapper ever ... great rhymes and flow ... man NAS IS THE BEST

  • this isnt a freestyle. its off his demo tape "nasty nas" 1991.

  • Nas sounds a lot like Big L and Rakim on the freestyles

  • Nas came before big L.

  • Nas influenced Big L and Rakim influenced Nas

  • @ericfrancis3333 I think Rakim influenced EVERYONE.Nas was just one of the few with the capability to follow his lead and take it where he left off.

  • not the last vesrse at allll it didnt make illmatic

  • i know i know....i was just saying in general

  • Comment removed

  • Oh my fucking god.. this was just too ill

  • Nas is too ill... usin that "Represent" lyricism intertwined with one of his rarest freestyles to date. And most tend to say that he done fail off and that he ain't "Illmatic" no more... I beg to differ. The content he's spittin about now is way illa than the "Illmatic" era (note "Queens Get The Money", "America", "We're Not Alone", etc) and his Nasty Nas persona has not relinquished itself.

  • 1:10 that whole verse is on another level.

  • its no wonder he got signed

  • the brutalizer crew desizer accelarator, the type a n**** who be pissin in ya elevator

  • ILL!!!!!!

    IS NOT ENOUGH TO EXPRESS This freestyle

    deserves way more than 5stars

    R.i.p to the old Nas Nas is just ok now

  • are you fucking stupid son? new nas is just ok? his last album is considered a classic did your bumass even listen to it. the one b4 that hip hop is dead was crazy to.

  • he just dropped mad Science

  • u fools r dumb if u dont know that this is off illmatic just wit the bass voice effect. then later i think it switches into a different freestyle or verse. but the marijuana smokin street dweller is represent the dopest shit off his debut album in 94, Illmatic. only listen 2 old school trustt, aside pac n biggie, a tribe called quest, wu tang, nwa, big daddy kane, slick rick, pete rock and cl smooth, nas, geto boys, eric b n rakim, scott la rock and krs one, dj quick, too short, a gang of stuff

  • the beat is the same as the geto boys - damn it feels good to be gangsta REMIX!!...got it on wax..

  • now im into phat chains,sex and techs

  • The beat kind of sounds Like Tupac - My own Style

  • how come he didnt take the 3rd verse and put it on a song???

  • lol get it on time kid!!

  • this is that REAL HIP HOP SHIT!

  • i know this is represent, but what is that beat in the beggining in the backround?

  • thats what im tryin to find out.that beat is cold aint it.

  • yea, i could flow over that, dang i can never find it tho, i think its prod. by LP tho

  • REPRESENT!

  • Represent, classic tune

  • Illmatic was like a Rakim thing about the rhyming and showing what it is he can do and his ability with the mic.

  • Represent

  • PRE-ILLMATIC... 01 - Just Another Day in the Projects 02 - Live At The Barbeque (Feat. Main source, Akinyele) 03 - Back To The Grill (ft. MC Serch, Chubb Rock, Lover Tone) 04 - Everything Is Real 05 - I'm A Villain 06 - Life's Like A Dice Game 07 - Understanding (Feat. A.Z.) 08 - Number One With A Bullet (Feat. Kool G Rap) 09 - Nas Will Prevail 10 - Deja Vu 11-True Dialect (I love this song)
  • anyone know the beat to "Number One with a Bullet" thanks i wish to have that beat

  • your an asshole -lol. you and i both had had this since 98 so thats 2 out of 11,650 that view the vid. rare doesnt mean that no one esle has heard it weirdo, it means it hasnt been heard by many and is hard to find......so calm the fuck down. you've heard it before, congratulations, now chill the fuck out please - lmao

  • damn calm down...this shit is real tight just appreciate it

  • Comment removed

  • lol whys he hatin on you just cos you post this freestyle before him? its a sick freestyle man i think i heard this on an old mixtape, check my nasir beats out anyway some are kinda rare i guess. 1

  • @Habib24202 ooohhhhh ETHER HIS ASS LMAO

  • bullshit! u never herd this shit. u didnt hear of ILLMATIC till it hit yer 'lil 3rd world country in 98'. fuckin hater, your just mad cuz u gotta sell yer ass 2 eat.

  • So I never heard Illmatic till 2006 but that's cuz I listened to mostly west coast rap like all my life bak then still I know it up and down and I have every cd he ever made even the mixtapes... Aaaaaaaaaall downloaded in 1 week. Even so I understand what he was doing and I never stopped listening to Big L either.

  • Real recognize real.

  • habib is right nigga. shut the fuck up before saying false shit

  • ill stylz think this was from big daddy kanes birthday years ago.I used to have the whole show on tape.about 20 mcz on it...

  • you might be right. you have to find that tape!!!

  • classic nas being on point.miss these days.anyone know where i can get this?or any of his previous illmatic songs?23

  • i put the link in the description

  • This isn't a freestyle. It is from Illmatic... it's his best cd

  • stop.

    it was BEFORE illmatic. I know my shit.

    second, why would he spit a freestyle of a verse he already released??? think first man...lol

  • this is the pre-tape for illmatic right?

  • im not sure if this is on his pre-matic demo. probably not, which makes it even more rare

  • First time I heard this was either '92 - '93 (at this point it wall runs together) on the Stretch Armstrong show...glory days.

    Speaking on the first part of the rap, it was before Illmatic and he was going live, but he was not "freestyling" in the strictest sense...most of this is rehearsed lyrics.

  • In hindsight it wasnt a freestyle,,,,but if someone writes something and spits it in a freestlye how the hell are you supposed to know it was written? Pause....Had to pause just in case you thought i was coming at you....okay, not to me its a freestyle. its before illmatic, the people at the radio show probably never heard it before until the album eventually came out. but its all good

  • @Habib24202 Its a freestyle in the sense that its a written rhyme thats free of style and he's just rhyming.

    But he is definitely not coming off the dome. There's very few MCs that can do that legitimately well. I've heard Nas come off the dome on BET's the Basement one time and it was ok. Nothing special.

  • @paparosxoni when you first started listening to nas did u think he would be an icon?

  • yo where can i cop this song??

  • nas is the shit hands down. all of illmatic and his new shit. but u niggas always talk about biggie this 2 pac that. but what about big l(rip)and mos def,guru and dj premiere,and of cours wu tang shit. fuck wayne he has other people write his shit and only freestyles so his rap can pretty much be compared to shit.and fuck all u nigga who say other wise

  • holy shit..from the first line this shit was dope!!!

  • damn its true he inspires everyone myself included dopee

  • Damn that last verse is too nice

    Dude said

    ''When im drunk I Stagger

    writing lyrics with a dagger

    next stabber

    catchin rec badder than a tec would had''

    ''Left struck whos next up i murder

    send me to San Quentin and im lynchin niggas word up''

    DAMN killed it

    dont know if thats a 100% correct statement of the lyrics, but one way or another it was still nice what he said

  • aye dis represent off the illmatic

  • what year is this????

  • this goes too hard!!!

    ".. no matter tha cell block, nas'll be named king.."

    you don't get it, not many is up on this level thinkin!! and if you don't get it, then whateva yo.

  • Some of it

  • lets make this clear... if you hear freestyles like this.... either, 1. he freed verses he actually turned into songs on illmatic or 2. he just spat writtens and passed them off as freestyles :O:O WOW OMFG!! yes.. rappers tend to do this alot...

    but its all good

  • who cared why he would...

    its still hot..

    but its on illmatic..

    either way he still repeated himself

  • its a freestyle

    the end

  • this was before illmatic was released, and it is a freestyle, he liked it so he revised it and put it on represent.

  • and your point?

    your saying all that as if I didnt hear Illmatic - lol

  • my point is you got a picture of Jay-Z on your profile.

  • in other words....

    you have no point

    wtf does a Jay-Z pic have to do with anything

    you used Nas's name as your screename

    so what are tryin to prove?

  • nas spit this in represent on illmatic..
