  • this is from the I AM album not It was written... come on people lets get our shit together for the sake of the children eating fish.

  • Comparing Jay Z To Nas, ROFL Nas Is Like *queue song*

  • Freedom or Jail clips inserted a babys being born same time my man is murdered the beginning and end.

    Thats the illest sht I ever heard.

    Basically its like.

    When a baby is born.

    A man dies.

    The man life ends.

    The baby life begins.

    The beginning and end.

  • I feel what y'all sayin, but HipHop aint dead yet. There's still some cats who keep hiphop alive, but you'll have to look a little further. And you still got the classics, like this one. HipHop NEVER dies.

  • i would like u 2 name some people, cause not much ppl keeping this good shit going

  • ooooooo i cant wait to see him in syd

  • damn this song is sooo satisfying. i miss good ol hiphop

  • i feel u, i miss hip hop too...

  • Half Man Half Amazing

  • NASTY NAS

  • nas is my hero... i swear throughout mainstream hiphops history he's been in a seperate category cause noone can touch him.. he just does his own shit....

  • modern day poet, and kanye compared him to soljah boy, i hate rap today

  • Comment removed

  • MAS is like

  • N A S!!!

  • This' sinkin' into the great skillz o' a relic o' knowledge, wisdom, n' understanding, while reiterating theprecise interpretation o' all things. Truly Nas' come to the point where the delivery o' lyric, n' moment has done great relevance in the potential o' hip_hop, n' it's growth as development strengthens all mentally with the purity in the structure o' elevation........as was meant to be encounter'd. ...You heard!?!

  • great!

  • Nobody can touch Nas' skillz

  • lol they playing GTA1

    Those Was The Times...

  • lol. My homie pointed that out a while back.

  • Primo !!!!!!!

  • if u read his lyrics...its amazing

  • Why does everyone mention soldier boy as if he is the only one who is part of this ruined culture in general. Shit is wrecked in all areas, not just music, and especially not just hiphop. If you don't have a message then you are a gimmic only existing to make money and produce commodities not knowledge, therefore you are useless and should not be bought or listened to.

  • yo don't even put soulja boy and nas in the same sentence its disrespect to gods son

  • ron artest grew up with nas thats right

  • ron artest grew up in compton

  • G.O.A.T!!!!

  • real rap 93

  • I Agree!

  • dope on so many levels......

  • You should shut the fuck up Soulja Boy Lover!! FUCK SOULJA BOY!!! That bitch ass dude is ruinin' Hip-Hop. So if you don't like Nas you don't like Hip-Hop

  • Nas is the best songwriter ever, even better then 2pac. He wrote the best HipHop album ( Illmatic) when he was 19.

    Please, go listn to Soulja Boy ,this is real.

  • thats not cool man why does he suck???

    ive heard you swallow and suck so literly who really sucks.....hmm

  • Classic Album fuck wut u heard!

  • R u fukin stupid...he's explainin his fukin name and who he is...sumtin most rappers cant do now adays....this is a gr8 song....u should listen to it closer...u kno dat beginin when its sayin....nas is like...and it keeps on repeatin...he goes into the song statin how he is....nas is like Freedom or jail, clips inserted, a baby's bein born

    Same time my 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...listen good

  • i wish rap and hip hop stayed like this...

  • we all do man

  • shut the fuck you, you cant even freestyle cracka

  • nas is wack? LOL shoot ur self kid u fucking dipshit u have no idea wtf u just said

  • i love nas and this song

    and at 1:10 look

    does he still have the chip in his tooth? that was random but just really popped out at me yaknow?

  • yeaa check the chipped gold tooth smile u never heard that line??? it almost seems like he likes it lol

  • he doesnt have a chip tooth anymore

  • "you know the kid got his chipped tooth fixed, hair parted with the barbers percisenes"

  • King Of NY

  • every ones top 5 is different its what you like not what other people like my fave rapper is biggie & he aint even in that niggas top 5

  • no disrespect to anyone, but i have the most respect for nas because he never sold out for money. Plain and simple he never screwed Dame Dash or anyone else over to become a multi millionare although he doesnt have as much money as JayZ like he says he "but what is it worth? you cant take it with you under this earth."

  • he looks like a little kid. good raps but

  • Lyrically Nas is the best out of NY, I think Jay-Z and B.I.G. are good rappers but lyricsm goes to Nasir....And those top 5's,10's,etc only depend on what decade you're speaking of...

  • top 5 rappers (not in order):

    1. eminem

    2. tupac

    3. nas

    4. tech n9ne

    5. ice cube

  • not to sure about ice cube man

  • Where is Rakim and KRS-1 on the list youreally missed the boat with this one

  • well they are definitely in my top 10 probably, but they dont have A LOT of notable songs, unlike my top 5...and ice cube is really good before and after NWA

  • You can not be serious everyone on this list and Nas even admitted that he took alot of his style Rakim do some history

  • Every rapper, even the ones not on my list have borrowed lines from or paid homage to Rakim. Just realize that this list is my opinion. go out and ask random people who their favorite rapper is, rarely will someone say Rakim..

  • Well you weren't in the barbershop I was in this weekend we named 10 rappers before we even got to Biggie, Pac or NAS

  • my favorite rapper is rakim

  • this is I am.... not it was written

  • fuckin` good rap..

  • sometimes I forget what Nas is like so I listen to this song. So I can remember Nas is like life or death.

  • uglyyyyyy jacket hahahaha

    best beat!

  • you wish LOL

  • love that song!

    nas´s one of tha greatest!1

    2 thumbs up

  • He is the Greatest, not one of..

  • Sorry my friend but that is debatable. My all time favorite is Andre 3000, i think hes at least top 3 of all time

  • ill song

  • This is sooo classic fa real!!!

  • Nas is like THE BEST

  • pussys stop talking shit here on a vid from NAS one of da real gods .... so shut the fuck up ... go put the kids to bed and go to sleep pussy asses

  • shut up, no one is going to polish bullshit rap. american and english rap is the best.

  • BEST RAPPER ALIVE PERIOD.....

  • i cant understand you either..

  • lol

  • wtf. vanilla ice doesnt even write his own rhymes

  • Rase, Vanilla Ice is the biggest thing out of America after the living legend David Hasselhoff..

  • Vanilla Ice sorry ass was the worst thing to happen to hip hop, so he damn sho wasnt the biggest thing to come out of america

  • I never said he was, I said he was the 2nd biggest thing. The living legend David Hasselhoff IS the biggest thing to come out of America (Music wise that is).

  • soulja boy? yo nas can end souljas career.....

  • Or life.

  • true he can say he's wack and every other rapper thinks like that and its over for him

  • Just said that to get attention huh?

  • Get at you?

    I got a big sack of "Shut the fuck up" just for you,clown.

  • This is classic. I wish Nasty Nas and Preemo would do a new collab

  • I Wish they would do a album together.

  • This is killer.The beat is real.And he's make this sound smooth!

  • whoa he actually had somethin to say there... no new generic hip hop gibberish. like "i got cash and cars and 469 hos to fuck in all of em"... so the fuck what?. this seemed like he had to actually think about the words he put together. thank u nas

  • yo nas has looooads of songs which are really deep. out of all the rappers ever seen on the commercial scene, he's one of the realest

  • "Sooner or later, we'll all see who the Prophet is..."

    sick beat, will always have respect for Nas.

  • dj premier and nas should do an album together

  • no doubt

  • realhiphopisgarbage dont know shit

  • so i guess u like fake shit. U wont like my shit then

  • ur fuckin wack

  • If real hip hop is garbage, what the fuck do you like? Fake hip hop? You're a fuckin moron.

  • You dotn get it. If you ask some1 now what do you listen? And he answers hiphop. and you ask what artist, than he says lil wayen. SO most people who listen to hiphop are listning to lil wayne instead of a sick hiphop legens like wu tang and nas.

  • i agree with u

  • fuck a nigga name REALHIPHOPISGARBAGE

  • Are you stupid? Its so obvious its just a joke... Keyword "REALHIPHOP" Why would he call it real Hip-Hop if he thinks its garbage? Because its a joke...
