what chances did that turkey take exactly? he still got a career and we are talking two decades. problem for him is he ran out of hits and he pulled that Spike Lee mess of trying to having a shocken theme to sell otherwise hit and miss material and he got old real quickly.

truth is Nas was caught between going gold and Platinum with street cred and hip hop cred,however he craved what Lay Z has and Nas doesn't have that kind of appeal so he fell back.

He has been his own worst enemy,because nothing wrong with his lane,he just never was satisfied with being an Important lyricist and respected Artist.

he wanted the Pop Love and he never had that long reach.
