yeah, thats it, i just didnt like ether.
takeover (to me) was a better song.
now as far as nas's post illmatic work. i give him credit. each album has been good in its own right, just not as good as illmatic.
when i say street cred, im talking about the anticipation of a new release. after "you owe me" and "oochie wally", i just couldn't support him anymore. i mean i even like (somewhat) nastradamus (the single, mainly for the jbs sample)
and your point about jay being obsessed with him....he made it seem that way, along with the hip-hop media. but it was nas that was taking shots at the crown long before jay had to defend it. mix-tape chronolgy goes back to nas spitting first. jay defended himself, but becasue he was/is (whatever) on top he came off as the big bad bully.
(damn i should have replyed with quotes)
yes a battle ryhme is a ryhme about: how dope i am, how dope my crew is, and most importantly, how WACK you are. this is what thought does. thought can tell a story (episodes, any female joints) he can rock a party (see them live), he can tell you how wack you are (clones, most of illedelph and TFA), and...and hes just a dope emcee.
we will agree to disagree on many points. i'm taking thought in a straight battle no prob. nas might win the pop vote, cause hes hot right now and thought is an unknown....
oh yeah as far nas being king (you didn't even mention it, but i thought it appropriate) he can't be after one song. nas needs a string of bangas to truley take the crown. now he has three, and an album....not enough
