[BWSmookie]

Polscy fani Nasira

[mikeant2181]

This is real hiphop real rap

[RealAzzHipHop]

[Iiriks]

Nas is really PERFECT

[PoeticLikeNas]

@LikeIsNas I never get tired of this. Sooo inspiring.

[champukeilyn]

Nas makes Black music

[ak14gooner]

@champukeilyn why so stereotypical?

[tasan215]

only Nas, only Nas. Respect that dude

[DanielVillavicencio2]

i spit prophecies throught a MIC and say peace! - nasty nas the greatest

[hagemannwilhelm]

Spit your words, talk your shit, click your click and close that window if ya don't like it. Not here for ya bullshit but for Hip Hop. Nas forever, peace.

[JaeSmoove716]

Song so chill...

[westside159]

sippin on disaster , smoking on gangsta "

[teahouse100]

It may be a matter of opinion. BUT the fact that people always argue over who is the best rapper on Nas forums is proof.

[ameerhasty1]

Fuck nas he could have been the greatest but his arrogance prevented that he refuses to work with real producers because he hates other peoples input premier,Pete rock,q-tip,and large professor guided nas on illmatic since he went on his own he ain't been shit so fuck his new album it's to late now

[mclovin435190]

@ameerhasty1 your just a fuckin fake ass bitch. listen to these songs that nas puts out, they actually tell stories and have meaning, if you wanna hear some fake shit then go listen to young money homo

[BlackThouqhts]

@ameerhasty1 LOL! That ain't called arrogance that's called being slick. If you go mainstream, you don't control the majority of your shit and it'll turned wack and repetitive just like Jay-z.

[LesNowoh]

@ameerhasty1 Oh yeah, well he would probably say that that's your opinion and keep doin his thing. You see with or without the fancy beats his lyrics & messages prevail. 

[chestveeg]

The beat is hot. The violins set it off. Beats will make or break his next album. His flow is always impeccable but beats? Uhhhh.

[lolbarrk]

@chestveeg He join good musc i think kanye produce beats

[MrBadabom]

now i remember back in the days when i was young :D this song is perfection!

[Bluescorpion10]

I haven't bought a rap album in years but after hearing "NASTY" yesterday I am definitely going to get this album when it comes out.

[reviewsnake]

LIFE IS GOOD > THE BLUEPRINT 4

[kisa55]

uh fact is nas is better he actually has complex and meaninful lyrics not to mention he incoportates medaphors similies multis internals and much more almost flawlessly eminem used to be good but now all he does is rap really fast with alot of bullshit in between his single syllable rhymes

[lbori1]

[shaz12324]

man i can't stop listen to his song . he's one kool dude with extraordinary skills , says whats really happening in the world . good on ya bro thumbs up

[ICExRED]

If Nas would have passed away people would have him over Tupac...

Its sad but its true when people die people suddenly change their opinions...

For example: Michael Jackson, Amy whinehouse, BIG

Appreciate someone when they are alive before its too late.. just saying.

[hiphopismydrug1]

@ICExRED totally agree. before MJ died he was known as a paedo. before amy died she was known as a crackhead. before biggie died he was known as a sell-out who couldnt step to 2pac.

[FuZiionXD]

@ICExRED Ur telling da truth .. Nas over Pac anyday ...

[blaqdiemenz]

@ICExRED

true words spoken. 

[casso9]

is this off a mixtape??

[EmineMNeWMaterial]

Look at my latest video

Hes the UK Eminem worth taking a look

[fiescoluis21]

Saying one rapper is better than another is just a matter of a opinion. It is not a matter of fact because there is no method of measuring who is the best rapper. There is no best, just many different kinds

[uutube010]

@fiescoluis21 I disagree u can measure them based on what they are talking about for ex Jay-z is very commercialized doesn't not sound intelligent his all about club musics but nas spits the truth and historical joint so u can easily measure them.

[YungPinero]

@fiescoluis21 Not entirely true. There are standards and methods by which skill and talent is measured. Hence the birth of Battle Rapping....

It's that very ideology of "it's all opinion" that has caused so much of the once great lyrical standard to be skewed. Just like ANY genre, there are certain technical aspects that should be adhered to. If an artist has those down, from there it's the creativity that makes him/her a standout.

[seethroughshit]

@fiescoluis21 Yeah only 2 a certain extent. I mean you get your categories, wack, average, dope, super dope. In each category it boils down to taste. Like Lil Wayne and Rick Ross in the wack category, Big Pun and Big L in the super dope category. You can't say Lil Wayne is better than Big Pun coz the taste factor doesn't play a role when it's a fact that Pun is better

[tasan215]

@fiescoluis21 real rap homie

[atiamiyu1]

Fuck everybody reading this..... There is no best rapper you dumb assess!!! It's a matter of preference. I may like Ross and Pac you may like Wayne and Nas. Either way it's your opinion vs mine.

[scibes4real]

NASIR JONES...wot can I say..he's HIPHOP

[eazyem1]

5 lil b fans.

[hiphoppakistan]

Nas always on Topic in the right time!

[adamnlouis]

Nas is G.O.A.T.

Biggie was overrated, all respect and R.I.P. but he only put out one great album.

[thatbboyrandom1]

@adamnlouis sooo your gonna say big was over rated..but claim nas the greatest of all time?..that sounded so whack just now..nas is a beast..he was one of the over rated ones tooo....but still...big pac big L and nas are one of the dopest ones in the world

[adamnlouis]

@thatbboyrandom1 I'm not saying Biggie is bad, I'm saying he shouldn't really be called the greatest because he only put out two albums. They were good, but unfortunately he could not make more & being the greatest should be decided by skill & consistency. Illmatic, It Was Written, Stillmatic, Street's Disciple & soon Life Is Good will be a classic.

[shonha1]

@adam louis Longevity and greatness goes hand in hand, Big's a definite Hall of Famer very talented, but I could never understand people calling him the goat off just 2 albums, the 3rd 1 Puffy tried to throw together was wack b/c it was a bunch of dated freestyles, to use a sports analogy if someone hits 2 home runs and never plays bb again, can u call that guy the greatest hr hitter of all time, of course not, Big just didn't do it long enough to be considered the goat

[lawrenceP08]

@adamnlouis yeah u shouldnt go there though nas has been at it forever biggie died b4 he had the chance to be better and put out more albums , when pac and biggie died they were hands down the best then it was a toss up between nas and jay z if they would of lived there stuff today would have been on a unheard of level no doubt about it

[shonha1]

@lawrenceP08 "When Pac & Big died they were hands down the best", not true homie, Nas never had the commercial success of Big or Pac, but when he came on the scene he was hailed as the 2nd coming of Rakim, Pac wasn't in the convo when ppl spoke on the best mcs, he's become a cult of personality more for the way he lived & died than for his lyrics, Big was skilled but never had the depth, scope or poetical skills that Nas has, music is relative but I can name 10 mcs more skilled than Big or Pac

[lawrenceP08]

@shonha1 Just have to say one thing the books dont lie, pac is in the guiness book of world records as the top selling rap artist, i understand your belife, and im enthuised to know these ten mc's you mention Im not knockin nas at all hes skillfull and a legen in the top 5 hell maybe evn nuber 3, Pac touched more lives then anyother rapper and big well big was on his own level too, I really don't even know if we can say theres a best its all in your preference, but im telling u pac was realist

[shonha1]

@lawrenceP08 I agree, music boils down to taste, my point was Pac and Big's untimely deaths completely changed not only their legacies but also ppl's perception of them, I can bet $ that a lot of ppl that are now Pac fans weren't fans when he was alive, and there's a bunch more who became fans not b/c of his music but b/c of all the drama and his subsequent demise, and when we're discussing skills, we have to leave sales out of the discussion b/c skills and popularity are 2 different things

[BlazNnVA]

@adamnlouis ready to die and life after death were great!!!!!!!

[lawrenceP08]

check out i feel it by nas and pac

[lawrenceP08]

if you were to ask me who to the top 5 rappers were of all time I'd put 1.2pac 2.big 3.nas 4. jay-z 5. eminem or rakim

[lawrenceP08]

@adamnlouis and you have to lok at it like this tupac died at 25 listen to how smart and wise he was 25 he wrote the me agianst the world album at about 22 made songs like pain at 22 and dear momma, nas was'nt i dont believe on the same level at 22, dont get me wrong though nas is in a league of his own now, but tupac and biggie didnt have the chance to make it past 25 imagine how much better tupac stuff would have been if he put out 3 more albums whilke actually spitin and perfectin his craft

[lawrenceP08]

@adamnlouis he would have sold so many records it would have been more then to date all the stuff put out past the outlaws cd's was produced without pac in there presence same with big these dudes didnt have the chance to perfect there craft the plus they were amazingl talented already, 2pac and biggie would have been more then what they are today if they were still here and all the garbage put out now wouldnt exsist cause the tables and standards would be a hundred times higher then today

[lawrenceP08]

Respond to this video... tupac was so good nobody even cared about Dr. dre or snoop when they left they left death row, okay look at the statement Dr dre no one cared about the best producer of all time why cuz tupac was beyond even his level, and that is a known fact

[Soulfide]

@lawrenceP08 in the 90's they all had their time to shine... 2pac, Dre, and Snoopy... when Dre left and tupac died... Snoop and Dre still went on to be great!... so what are u talking about? to say NO one cared about dre or snoopy is just flat out wrong! i mean c'mon man.. no one gave a shit about MC hammer in those days when he tried to turn into a dancing gangsta..... but not snoop and dre LOL

[Germ303]

Even though i dont feel the instrumental nor the rhymes, i still have mad love for Nas . The king of HipHop. Peace son !.

[1977Koolk]

Yelawolf is tight, not top ten status but he has his moments

[lionzion81]

search soul music N ya"ll find NaS

[Alfred69S]

I am actullay listening to Wu-tang new shit right now nigga.. DMX is the greatest you will see in a minute when his new new shit comes out just came out of prison... Dmx is a real as it gets homiee. AZ and all that was good for me in 99, 98 00 01 nigga were 2011 please believe. Give my nigga Yelawolf some credit and if you dont like POp the trunk than you are a man that does not recognize talent which means fake. I am gonna have to get Tyler the creator on your punk ass.

[TheMelkManNYKfan]

@Alfred69S i dont recognize talent meanwhile u listen to DMX..and ur comparing Ja rule to cormega..?? really?? all im saying is u have jay-z, DMX, yelawolf,lost boys, and T.I. in ur top ten.. thats sad.. and u think DMX is nice because he sold records and had a nice freestyle?? and btw Mobb Deep, Boot camp klick, wutang, shades of brooklyn, Tribe called quest, LOX, Ill biskits, The firm, Cunniglinguists, little brother, heiroglyphics, black moon, and the roots are better groups than lost boyz..

[itsweezybabyy089]

NAS = <3

[xBlacky71]

NaS is real

[ep091988]

nas biggie rakim and big daddy kane = best dudes of all time

[Alfred69S]

Best on MIC.. 1 -2Pac 2-Biggie 3-Eminem 4-Nas 5-Outkast 6-Jay Z 7- Lost Boyz 8-TI 9 DMX 10 YELAWOLF.. Get your rap people right man.... These men are or have changed the rap game in one way or another..

[TheMelkManNYKfan]

@Alfred69S lost boys..Ti?? DMX has got to be a joke...and yelawolf?? hahahaha

[Alfred69S]

@TheMelkManNYKfan How old are you and yess individually .... I mean who else would you put from & lost boyz to now.. PDiddy probably oohh wait let me say Wiz khalifaa jajajajajajajajajajajaja or wait even betetr 50 cent or Kanye West... Dumbass.. look at record sales and ifluences and being at the top at one point. Yelawof is sick braaa!! listen to his underground shit you might learn something..

[TheMelkManNYKfan]

@Alfred69S do u know who AZ is?? what about cormega?? Pun?? BigL?? Guru?? Jay-z has one good album..(reasonable doubt).. u have lost boys over wutang clan?? and boot kamp klick?? and Shadez of brooklyn?? and check out ill biskits...thats 4 groups that are better... and check my page for real hip hop..fag..and u dont like hip hop if u have DMX and yelawolf in ut top ten btw...

[Alfred69S]

@TheMelkManNYKfan Alright man.. with Big L and big Pun youhave a point but they never sold as many record as DMX, Damm fag.. because I like DMX, Yealwolf, Listen New York City, I know rap blew up in NYC but nigga from when Jayz was in his prime DMX beat him freestyle, You obviously aint a real niiga, all real niggas know about Yonkas and harlem.

[TheMelkManNYKfan]

@Alfred69S ur saying that DMX is better because he sold more records? better at yelling. Big Pun and BigL died thats why they didnt sell more records.and who cares who sells more records? thats like saying 50 cent is the best rapper because he sold more than biggie. and i dont know about yonkers and harlem? wtf does that have to do with this conversation..i listen to children of the corn, dipset, and big L.and from yonkers they have LOX and DMX...and wutang is better than lost boyz by far.

[TheMelkManNYKfan]

@Alfred69S and uve never listened to AZ or cormegas discography....otherwise u wouldnt be saying this...and real niggas know about yonkers r harlem??? im white...and ur spanish....stfu dumbass..u know nothing about hip hop and probably couldnt mention Nas, biggies, or raekwons first cd without looking it up...and im white and i wouldnt have eminem or yelawolf or whatever the fuck his name is in my top ten...hip hop is dead because of people like u

[Alfred69S]

@TheMelkManNYKfan Listen braa.. i dont know how long this back and forth is going to last but, yes I am spanish and fucked 4 times the bitches you fucked, yes I so look better than you and I am cuban american loser. Listen I tell you what .. HipHiop is alive because of people like me, and yes I gotta give it to you know your NYC rappers but dude thats all you mention Cormega, shit soon your going to start mentioning Ja rule WTF....

[TheMelkManNYKfan]

@Alfred69S Ja rule and DMX are practically the same rapper...they grunt about guns and murder..listen to therapy, rapture, beautiful mind, the other side, journey, his funk flex freestyles, and affirmative action..cormega is nice...and do u get my point that record sales have nothing to do with greatness?? and if u dont have anybody from wu in ur top ten ur crazy. and why are u bringing up your looks faggot?? u listen to rap while i listen to hip hop. look at my faves if u think i dont know shit

[vgmaria1]

@Alfred69S i agree

[brianmf08]

He's number 2 for me behind Andre 3000, but I wouldn't mind calling it a tie.

[killawolf88]

song is cool

[ArbyWanKenobi]

This beat is aboslutely shit. Still good sing.

[xxjamaalxx]

@ArbyWanKenobi what are you talking about? the beat is sick and plus nas's flow makes any beat good

[ArbyWanKenobi]

@xxjamaalxx My issue isn't with Nas, it's with the beat.

[Jvi14]

In The Beginning It Was Nas . He Have Been Surviving The Times Through Out The Years , QB Where Yu At .

[xxNtGxx]

Nas GOAT hands down.

[pagola]

fukin dj speaking in the background fuk!

[Megaguardian0777]

PLz CoMe BACk all ready and show these new niggaz how to reAlly rap n spit rymes

[nahmess]

When NAS dies he will overpass Biggie, Pac, and many other legends when they die. NAS is truly gifted as a storyteller, he signs Queens lullaby through the mic and the essence rings in your ears and right there and then you know he truly is a rapper greatest ever truly the G.O.A.T

[bboy2490]

NAS been in the game over 15 years

and still has not ran out of shit

thats what i call a dope ass nigga!!!

[poetryselite]

Man, this is Nasty Nas at his best with that Slick Rick storytellin persona that he embodies better than anybody. Hope this appears on the next album... NOBODY HOLDS A CANDLE TO "GOD'S SON".

[5656onelove5656]

good vibe.. need moreeeee!!!

[smoovcriminal2]

Nas dat boi what I like about him is he not 1 demensional and he always put out good music.

[Yemoko]

success with nas is not about sales but quality of the music, he has by far the smartest verses in the game...Jay z is good but jay z is a business man now, Nas is a straity up MC..

[bhoff32]

Thank Nasir!!! Thumbs UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dbounce77]

DO IT TO THEM BOI

[P4me4ever]

NAS BEST RAPPER ALIVE

[Zronasalday]

G.o.a.t

[Arkonica11]

[gopzap111]

@aklesunio im jking brother . hotep

[csm07cb]

@aklesunio song is beautiful, i thank God every time i hear a new nas track

[rawtube82]

this is straight fire always on point with Nas..check out my page and give some feedback

[BeenaBee]

Nas is just himself, thats the main thing people have to understand. Today every goddamn rapper, even battle rappers are working off each others generic formula. Seems like niggas forgot about what it means to be original and strong minded enough to be themselves. Nas and Jay-Z are both my favourites for different reasons but it just seems like theres nothing truly unique about Jay's music, money this money that, biting lyrics and fame off other rappers.

[100pjp001]

Nas is good here but I prefer his normal style of rapping and leave the tongue twisting to Bone thugs, Twista, busta rhymes, tech nine.

[ThaFlyestMoor72]

Dope Song NAS as always Lyracist he shoud put that shit on his W4.

[fuckabtch]

1 person doesnt know who they are....and its 187 likes you already know its a closed casket for him

[TheScorpioBeats]

the bass sounds really similar to 2pacs i wonder if heavens got a ghetto none the less badass song

[Oldschoolrap91]

Even an unreleased Nas track is better than some whole albums of these overhyped rappers like wayne...Nas 4life,.

[RJusername5]

@Oldschoolrap91 waynes alrite listin 2 sum cassidy

[Oldschoolrap91]

Nas is one of the best men ever touched a mic...

[forevershining76]

NAS IS THE BEST LYRICIST . NOTHING ELSE TO SAY.

[cmuratf73]

He's back, This is the Nas I know....

[kemeticshogun1]

queen azinga, yesssssssssss

[The2000LINCOLN]

NAS is like the RAY LEWIS of HIP-HOP! Crazy years in the game, and remains the source of it's true identity! HARD-PHUCKIN BODY!!!

[aricuzzi]

This ain't my type of song. I dought I'll hear it again. But I will play Nas - Nasty another 10 more times today...
