  • This was the album of the millennium. Only those with a real ear for music knows that this is the 3rd best studio album that Nas has recorded.

  • @Redboy1ism I don't agre that it's his third best, I think it's his 5th maybe 4th

  • ‎"The past is gone. The presence a gift. So what's the mystery? The future and time only reveals what FEAR is - False Expectations Appearing Real. We only human, loved thy neighbor, so I was told ... and I will till permanently my eyes are closed." ... one of the best bars EVER laid down on a musical track, EVER

  • HIS BEST ALBUM LYRICALLY.

  • @Smileyfacedkiller definiatly not. its his worst album. but still its not bullshit

  • Still relevant a decade later the lyrics are!

  • 4 people have DEMONS & more of them will come & hit the DISLIKE button

  • Nas is Like remix /watch?v=5K8y5PsmywE

  • Long live Nasir....

  • Believe it when I tell you nas is one of the greatest lyricists of all time, this song is a testament to what, alot of brothers, was feelin' I know I could relate, crime followin the wrong dudes who have know values, life cheap as a dime in the minds of those around you, phk watcha heard , Nas a legend!!

  • shell stab you in ya sleep wit the knife from out the kitchen

  • So many ppl hated on this album and truthfully overall rating it may not be as great as some of his other works, but it succs that kept people from finding some of tha truly great traccs on it, for example ^^

  • damn nas was ahead of his time , i was hatin on this album in 2g now i feel like a fool!

  • ''the weed make ya brain sizzle a pistol make it cool off'' deeeep.....

  • "The future is nothing but a series of probabilities made up of decisions that we make right now, these decisions lead to certain events into the future, but every human being has this capability, determinds their own future some are just more intuned than others". deep

  • Fuck evolution .... That's what the racist white scientology secret societies want u to think

  • dope ass artist but reminds me of some dark days I went through at that time :(

  • Check out my music...leave your comments..show support..peace..famallyear

  • this song makes me think of working at a gas station in 1999 in -25 degree weather, DAMN nas you bringin me back

  • The only God I know is Jesus.

  • @Wh0DdatX yeah man. anyone that claims they are God automatically lose respect in my opinion.

  • @videosniper15 yea i agree , givin in to da devils way ah thinkin ,, das what my brotha FLAME - 'war of the minds' song was about ,

  • Comment removed

  • @Wh0DdatX You dont know jesus...and he doesnt know you. You are god and god is you.

  • @zaki612 Thats what a non believer wants you to think. Its a lie from the enemy himself.. God created us. Its not a coincidence, and were not full grown monkeys... This earth and everything around it didnt come into affect cause of some cosmic explosion.. Thats just 'mad scientist' nonsense.. A mere human cannot be God....His Word says in Matthew 24:5 says 'For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ (or God),' and will deceive many... His word is truth

  • @Wh0DdatX We can go back and forth all year god, but dont put your faith in someone you never met....have faith in yourself!!!

  • @Wh0DdatX stop trying to push lobsters i mean christanity on others . for many will come to destroy my pepople but we are the chosen ones the cohein high preists of the levi tribe i find all talk about religous hurtfull to others so to avoid trolls plz dont talk about it ok

  • @badgescops You are a decendent of Aaron brother of Moses?!? I don't believe you...what part of Africa are you from? Prove what you say.

  • @KingCream23 lol like i have to prove anything pay for the blood test and i will show u i poses the cohen halo typr y gene that is found along only decendents of Aaron another thing is i said it to prove a point other ppl feel bad when some one pushes a religon it hurts other feeling and prmotes violence

  • @badgescops It sure did take a long time to reply. I almost forgot about this comment. So you are in the bloodline of Aaron..Very rare indeed. So my question is how did you find this out or is it just speculation? Where are you from? Most people with that bloodline come Tanzania, Africa or furtherdown the east coast. I am a Gadinite after my father.

  • @Wh0DdatX Get your facts right... oh right you don't believe in facts, NVM,

    ima just play the song again and chill with my nonbeliever ass and burn in hell when i die

  • @realstoney what facts is it that you believe in. evolution? or the explosion that came from nothing and formed an entire universe?

  • @Wh0DdatX All Science proves is that there is a God, all the inner workings that allow the universe, the earth nd all it's inhabitants to function the way they do could never be by chance occurances, all that takes unspeakable knowledge, wisdom nd know how

  • @shonha1

    It is equally reasonable to say that the confluence of things that lead to us and life IS the fault of pure chance versus the work of "God". The bottom line is science certainly does NOT prove the existence of a God. Both conclusions are equally reasonable, which makes the conflict between agnostics/atheists and the faithful pretty damn stupid. Let people believe whatever the hell they want...just keep it yourself. If your beliefs TRULY make you happy, no need to push it on others

  • @hendrik All I did was state my opinion which is what this PUBLIC forum is designed for, no where in my comment did I try to push anything on anybody, notice it was directed at no one, now if u want to personalize what i wrote, then that's all on u homie. Peace

  • Damn I lived to this shit....

  • Is this song fire or hot?

    Hold on, let me check my dictionary of lame ass terms.

    Oh ya it's in the real dictionary, under legit.

  • THESE FOOLS THESE DAYS ONLY LISTEN TO DAT SAME OL' POP RAP BS THEY GOT ON TV!!

  • I never hate datz just waste of energy....... still love dis song

  • wtf?? less than a 100 thou views??? oh i get it, most hood ni66as to hood to be on u tube huh? i kno this should get at least a mill

  • I always thought this track was sick.

  • @nastynas9000 IT SO IS

  • "they tell you keep it gangsta, no matter what the predicament/ even if your decision won't help you benefit"

  • I never hate, that's just wasted energy; The past is gone, the present's a gift, so what's the mystery? the future....

  • Words of a Man, Nobody cumn close to Nas when it comes to droppen Jewels thats like food for the Brain... Certified Jewel...

  • "he never planned to fail, but failed to plan" that line is fire!

  • agreed

  • I prefer this over I am.

    Nas has NO bad albums but his last album was a little dissapointing " we make the world go round " was only ok.

    Honestly though, its like if every song on a Nas album isn't good or SICK, its like what?

    He set the standard with Illmatic.

  • OMG! Where was he before i did 6 years in the pen? better yet, where was my perspective?

    THANKS, NAS!!!

  • there is no such thing as a bad nas album.

  • This is his most lyrical album I've heard.

  • even his bad stuff iz good better than what most rappers create today

  • naS has to be one of the best lyricist i've ever heard.

  • Somehow I feel this is Nas' Best Album. This is Nas' first comeback. It's a known fact that Nas dissed 2pac on the "Message". And Nas was the King of New York after "It Was Written" Nastradamus was probably Nas attempt to break back into the Mainstream because "I Am..." I suspect was a flop. Based on Revenue "Nastradamus" was designed for album sells. Platinum is at least a million dollars and considering Nas spends less than a half thousand dollars per album is the definition of success!

  • Comment removed

  • this shit is real 100%

  • There is no need for "Good and Evil". Get rid of the comcept and you will find absolute mellow tranquility. Namaste

  • i don't see why people say this album was horrible. Its pretty good.

  • This album along with God Son were seriously underrated. But that's the music industry for ya.

  • This Album was down talked before it was released(way back then) but now I know and understand why because of HATING RAPPERS. My TOP 5 Changed since. JAY Z is one of my TOP 5 but now NAS moved UP to #1 on my list WORD My style is more like NAS. BRAVEHART for life.

  • the nastradoomus version is better as in the beat love the song though

  • this shit was'nt for everybody. this was for a choosen percent. if you have actually lived that streetlife due to necessity you will understand this track.

  • i love this shit and nas is one of the greats, everlasting

  • idk nas ties his lyrics into all sorts of mythological and religious literature but he roots seem scattered

  • i hear dat uno. im confused wher da brother stands

  • i think if nas would've spent at least a year working on this album instead of 6 months it would've been alot better and deeper.But i think nas believed y2k was gonna happen, y else wud he try n squeeze in another album at the last second.

  • maybe he will have one for 2012 too

    "I never hate, that's just waste of energy, the past is gone- the presents a gift so what's the mystery"

    5/5

  • "He Didn't Plan To Fail He Just Failed To Planned"

  • songs way better after Doom gets his hands on it.

  • illmatic one of nas best albums because he did all the songs by himself .

  • what about az?

  • this, to me is the most in dept song nas or any one else has done. talkn about REAL LIFE SITUATIONS. none of that imaginary bs 97% of other rappers talk about. 20 inch rims, slangn rocks, wat they gonna do to ya if they catch ya slippin all of that shit is media propaganda and shit people say to sell albums. its a fukn sell out really.

  • check out thenamesmillen on my space

  • illmatic was one of his best albums cuz it was one of his first and he had nothing to lose when he made it

  • Nas spittin game bout these skandlous hoez

    'she'll stab u in ya sleep wit a knife from out the kitchen' so relevant just compare that to Steve McNair's situation... so sad but real as hell betta watch these hoez...

    God Bless The Dumb Nigga That Trust These Hoez - 2Pac - The Good Life

  • nas is grown, he made illmatic as a teenager, he has always been ahead of his time, very mature artist, he's on another level, people will catch up eventually, nastradamus is probably one of my favourite albums of all time, last words, project windows, life we chose, etc etc lots of classic songs on that album, its unfortunate haters tried to shit on it, truth is nas' music is next level, proof is in the pudding, nas has soooo many classic songs in his catalogue

  • dude i think ur pretty gay and ur a douche who says that shit

  • well said. the whole cd was medicine for the hood sickness. thought provoking lyrics really helped a dude like me when i was 26yrs of age. my life could have possibly went terribly wrong. WORD IS BOND! much respect to the god!

  • @godzman7 WORD IS BOND!

  • @invisiblefly He made this thinking tht Y2k was going to strike. I remember getting this album around thanksgiving of 1999 when I was a freshmen in high school.

  • this song is mad deep..."he never planed to fail hejust failed to plan

  • i am...? it was written? those are some of his best works. what the hell are you talking about?

  • DAM, i can't forget that dude jadakiss, the only emcee that carries on the tradition of burning the mic. do the knowledge besides him after the year of 97, no other emcee has carried the torch like the 15 who came out before 97. i mean no one, and don't give me that TI, lil wayne, and that cotton candy ludacriss shit!

  • hold up, so prodigy is better than biggie, jay-z, pac? STUPID!

  • jay-z is garbage lol

  • that ridiculous

  • jay z is the most overrated rapper of all time

  • he stole big Ls style and killed the nigga

  • his early shit was ill, he just sold out

  • u dum lil cunt how the fuk did nas sell out. looks like u dont no shit bout hip hop. fuker

  • he was talkin bout jay-z

  • I think he's talking about Jay-Z dude.

  • When did he sellout? Was it with Stillmatic? Gods Son? Hip-Hop is Dead? Streets Disciple? N....? All his albums were ill, just some less than others.

  • naa nigga nas is just ahead of time, on hip hop is dead niggas hated on him.. now wat niggas are killin hip hop, wait a few years the untitled album will be sick

    but the early nas was way siker

  • what !

  • No doubt!

  • Yo it kills me how people say jay is a better rapper than Nas. Nas spits that real shit yo. I think Pac and Nas are the best rappers ever!! Jay and Big are good too, but I think Pac and Nas are on a whole other level... Those dudes spit shit that have you thinking... real life shit!

  • yu know who wuld of been the best ever if he didnt die so young big L

    R.I.P. Lamont Coleman The Flamboyant MC

  • True lyricist

  • False expectations, appearin real

    We only human, love thy neighbor, so I was told

    and I will til permanently, my eyes are closed

  • one of illest tracks ever!!!!!!

  • true heads know nas is probably the greatest alive imo. This is the only nas album I haven't really listened to, I heard it was whack but it pretty sick.

  • i thought the same thing till i listened for my self

  • Immortal Technique

    fuck gay z

  • His Album cover represents a Demon: Hades, The King of the Underworld.

  • i have demons str8up-n-down,41st.SiDe..free p all day!!!

  • "They tell u keep it gangsta no matter the predicament, even though your decision won't help u benefit", c'mon man that's y Nas is my nigga yo, b/c he spit that shit a nigga been through.

  • word up! you have to had lived the shit! most people cant relate because they fantasize. they don't come from the grind. let them amuse themselves.

  • This is my shizzile!!!!!

  • I love this song Awsome.

  • d weed make ur brain sizzle' a pistol make it 'cool off.......word!

  • NAS you're a living legend. You keep the movement alive, cause right now hip hop is dead.

  • nas is the best rapper alive. cant change that fact

  • This album is good, cant believe niggas said it was his worst album. Shitty ass critics....

  • it was the jay-z stans who did that.

  • ...FUCK JAY-Z!...

  • Nigga what jay z best hands down wtf is this shit wild ass nas idk wth he did

  • jay-z is far from the best MC.

  • deep song, real spiritual, a classic. great poetry from nas. amazing!

  • nas will always b the best rapper, every1 who says this album sucks, they probably mean that nas can do better, saying that this is his worst album, doesnt mean its not amazing. all his albums r just amazing, this album is just not as amazing as the rest, but still the illest shit ive ever heard.

  • I love this song!!!Only NAS can'make this albums!!!

  • who ever hates this song, is the Satan that nas talking about

  • i dunno why everyone hatin on this album, its off the chain

  • One of Nas' worst albums? No, it's being said wrong.

    It's the album that is a little bit less close to legendary status than his other album, since Nas doesn't have bad albums.

    We just have high standards when it comes to Nas' albums, since his worst is better than the best of everybody else.

  • yeah, it started with jay-z saying the album was bad. but this album is better than volume 3.

  • thank u. peopl fell victim 2 jay's 'discredit nas' tactics. i'll take this over vl3 anyday.

  • hell yeah.

    i mean especially since the song "anything" isn't really on volume 3, that was the only song that could fuck with project windows. and every song on nastradamus is better than "a girls best friend".

  • kinda sounds like killah priest on here.

  • scary type beat dope

  • everyone luvs nas..lots of ppl r jay-z fans and some ppl think jay is wack..buh even if jay-z is ur fav..u still luv nas

  • He said that on Make The World Go Round, off Untitled, "Yur best success is my worst blunder", personally I liked this album, nd majority of the people who claim this album's wack don't even own the damn thing, it's just trendy to say Nastradamas is his worst album, but again to each his own.
