Get a grip sit down and just Listen to the music for what it is, nothin' more nothin' less......Damn! Humans boy, I tell ya.....*smh*
I am coming from the view point if not having heard anything from the project apart from Detroit state Of mind.... But, for me, so many rappers have paid homage to great tracks and albums by doing cover versions. And 90% of the time, for me, it works a treat. In one respect, it shows that the artist is a fan, and in another, it is always a treat to hear a new rapper rock a classic. Usually, it's just one track here and there, or like Joell Ortiz does the classics, it's a full mix tape. But I th

I lOve Elzhi but this is wack i dont mean the music i mean the concept of "Biting" of Nas this is stealing like it or not i love elzhi i support him but i will not support stealing from a legand come up with your own concepts.
@langa209 It's a tribute.... The nas music is like 15 years old or something, its updated and played live with new lyrics... its cool. Dont be a baby, it's only biting when you try to pass it off as yours. But the name elmatic is weak but what ever... this is music that changed his life and he's respecting it, didnt Nas say "carry on tradition"
and finally...this is STEALING??? cmon... Hip hop is built on samples, built on reinterpretation of existing art. Its only stealing if you take credit for vocals you didnt record or write! THe star of it is the poetry.
@N8crazy i see what u mean but come on where do u draw the line the beats still sound the same why cant he come up with his own concept the beats still sound the same !! i love elzhi and i will never support this shit, im like his biggest fun but dont defend this shit man its wrong this is further than sampling!
@langa209 The song I heard was based upon a nas joint but the beat had like three keychanges and more instruments... didnt sound like a copy of the original any more than thieves theme sounded like Hip hop is dead, same basic melodies with all ne interpretation and new lyrics, I get what you are saying but Hip hop isnt about the beats anyway...ELzhi is a lyrisist, not a producer (I often complain that he doesnt hook up wit ha decent producer and just be a team, like Hi tek+Kweli, gangstarr)
@langa209 hes paying homage... smh. you act like hes taking nas' lyrics n spittin them shits. hes writing his own ish, and laying them on beats which were not even made by nas... was nas stealing by taking those beats from those people? no. elzhi's is essentially doing the same thing nas did, hes throwing creative lyrics on somebody elses beats.
