Beats and choruses just don’t pop. He will have have maybe 1-3 songs on the album that will really bang, but the majority of the album will be vanilla or bland.
Nas sounds his best over an Extra P or Primo beat.
Now I do like the feel of King’s Disease. I feel what Hit-Boy was trying to do.
Being a true hip hop head and growing up with Nasty Nas, and the sound that extra p had him rhyming over, I haven’t heard shit since from Nas that captures that same nastiness.
It’s like talking about Floyd Mayweather...Pretty Boy Floyd is close to the greatest shit I have ever seen, but when he turned to Money Mayweather, got all flashy and shit, the fights weren’t the same. Nasty Nas pre-it was written = PBF. He has been Escobar ( Money Mayweather) Nas ever since.
