Nas Nets Ninth No. 1 on R&B/Hip-Hop Albums

[Cock Head Jones]

The Album could possibly be the best hip hop mainstream album in the last 10 years......

Oh erase that Swizz Beats trash and Ross verse and we in there

i agree... and ross verse was on point even though it didnt fit the subject or add anything new to the song.

 

[CADE_BADAZZ]

IMO its the best album of the year so far.

 

[absorhaps]

Nas makes Daughters....is labeled a coon.

Ok.

 

[LSN]

I don't think it aged well and now it's seen in a negative light but if you go to a Nas show, when the beat for that song comes off, the crowd always goes crazy.

Ya the beat def carries the track...always liked it

 

[ShortyCumStain]

I guarantee you're in the minority.

A lot of people who talk this sell shit, whine about what Wayne and Drake sell and talk this hip hop is dying bullshit don't even support shit. Fifteen dollars is too much to spend.

Exactly. at niggas calling Life Is Good a classic though. Y'all use da term classic way too loosely.

Good for him.

shane???!!!

 

[deobiggie]

Man im starting to get tired of wack ass niggas on BGOL half of yall cats dont know what classic material is. This album will be a classic, He has a 6 song stint on this album that is pure genius! Shit go way harder than anything ive heard all year. That shit start with You Wouldn't Understand and ends with By By Baby. If you cant hear that thats some of the best HIP HOP Ever then i think you should go somewhere and kill yourself son!

 

[Last Dayz]

Nas is a "coon" now? the bar is real low

Didn't he defend Gwyneth Paltrow for sayin the N-word awhile back?

This. I think dudes are conditioned to listening to bullshit. This is hip hop for adults with adult issues. Thats why nas will always be a better mc than jay. Jigga in his 40s still talking about niggas in paris, while nas spittin shit that the common man can zone out and relate to.

 

[Mr. Met]

One of his best albums to date.

Even kefta couldn't stop it's ascension.

Heard the soft start of 'Stay' and was about to skip it.

It turned out to be one of the best songs on the album.

 

[Chitownheadbusa]

had some nice tracks....but imho this latest album was extremely wack compared to his previous joints...but congrats anyways. i wonder if that White bitch that he capped for sent him any congrats.

Stay is THE best track on that album..one of those type of songs you can just chill and zone out to after a long days work..or something you can play when you got a chick over..

 

[SLY]

Solid album. Lacks replay value in my fucking opinion.

Cherry Wine & Stay are standouts for me

I roll with Nas but he lost major points caping for Gwenyth Palthrow like he did.

How many people in this thread actually BOUGHT this album

FOH bitch like you care. Life Is Good>>>>>>>>>>Bubble Lip's Throne.

How can an album have nice tracks but still be wack? nigga shut yo ass up

 

[45mm]

dont you know he a hater by now?

 

[LoneStar29]

Ever wonder why you're the most hated female on this board?

Nope

Do you ever wonder why you're one of the most hated males on this board?

 

[LoneStar29]

Didn't he defend Gwyneth Paltrow for sayin the N-word awhile back?

Yes!!!

he said that he would slap anyone who had an issue with her using the word and said that she is "one of us" and can say whatever she wants .... the fuck? The old Nas would have never said some dumb shit like that

Plus all the songs I have heard on the new album are about Brazilian hoes this Cuban bitches that ... he doesnt sound like he has much love left for bw therefore I have no love left for him (let them Cuban hoes support him)

I'm shocked he even came in #1 cuz most of the bw I know who were fans of his since our early teens (he was my fave rapper since I was 14) dont like him anymore and didnt buy this new album ... guess his cooning for Gwyneth helped him score some points and sales with the non black sluts and probably niggas liked him even more since he openly cooned for a white bitch ... he has his new fan base .... he doesnt need us anymore ... just like the rest of ya'll

You're blinded by your own vanity. Now, you're insinuating that they aren't any black Brazilian and Cuban women? What if these women he's referring are all of African descent: would you side with that? Because the attitude is a world apart. I was seeing a BLACK Brazilian once who's roots went back to Cote D'Ivoire. Shouting blackness! I'd be shocked if y'all where that country is on the map. Or what's the franca lingua.

Now, despite the fam's views, you've got every right to your opinion. However, the reasoning...

 

[ANGRY MAN]

I haven't listen to Nas since stillmatic, Im not even a big Nas fan..But this album is tight! Like said earlier Ross verse just had me like WTF are you talking about. Nas thru the perfect ally hoop pass and rick ross didnt even jump

Wish Nas would've been like take him off my album it's time to get serious and this ninja playing around.Nas didn't need any rapper on the album."World's Addiction" is brillant!!

His video SHOWS you he wasnt talikn bout the black kind, dont even try it

And I know for a fact that ya'll wouldnt go out of your way to support the black female equivalent of these coons so there are no fucks given over here

 

[Complex]

FOH bitch like you care. Life Is Good>>>>>>>>>>Bubble Lip's Throne.

I bought the album, did your broke dick suckin media take out viewin ass Miss Info?

 

[blackman80]

When he said Graffiti, Marley Marl and Insha'Allah... That had me suspecting he aint write it.

We grew up doing graffiti
Now hollowsheads getting heated
Seated in foreign cars, constantly getting weeded
Proceeded to count profits
I know they got on binoculars
But fuck em all, we ballin' til they come lock us up
Twenty to life; I'm clubbin', blowin' twenty tonight
We the mob, Boby Marley Marlin' all through the night
Addicted to wealth, never cold turkey to war
Snatch a tec off the shelf, live forever; that's Insh'Allah
Memoirs of a rich nigga;
Sweat suits, gold chains, old drug dealers
New Benz, chrome rims are for show, killer
You niggas accidental, choppers in back of the limo
Pay your tithes, stay alive, can't be dodging my clique
Cut a check; I use your bitch for some bargaining chips
In a hole, sell your home, nigga don't sell your soul
This forty-five in control
God forgives and I don't

yeah J..i do think Nas wrote that verse for Rick Ross..

For a fact? Sista, do you know weve got first generation African Americans, namely moi, up in this biyotch? Actually American African. I relate to them more because they re down with the diaspora, fuck, color aside, they claim Africa louder than you. Well, I got word you were East African or sumptin like that but you dont seem to big up that. If you want some BBC up in you, fine. Stop whining and PM some random so and so.

How can an album have nice tracks but still be wack? nigga shut yo ass up

Excuse me young lady....but id like to retract my statement.

This intros to most of those songs make it seem like the shit is about to be wack. But after I rode home for about an hour and let each track play all the way through....the album is one of his best imho. Not thee best...like a Illmatic...but still a solid album.

A lot of those beats are on some ol "I got cha" type shit,. Starts off weak...but then once the tracks get about a quarter of the way through..the beat changes and Nas starts to go in. It seems like he switched his style up some with his verses...but still...his lyrics are far from trash.

I wasnt gonna buy his album at first due to the sucka shit that he did for the european broad...but i might have to buy this one....emphasis on the word "MIGHT". That was some sucka/hypocritical shit that he did.

 

[Upgrade Dave]

Didn't he defend Gwyneth Paltrow for sayin the N-word awhile back?

He did but that instance of him defending his friend, wrongly imo, doesn't negate or outweigh everything he's ever said. I'm sure most of us would be considered "coons" by some fool going by the "one strike" rule.

This. I think dudes are conditioned to listening to bullshit. This is hip hop for adults with adult issues. Thats why nas will always be a better mc than jay. Jigga in his 40s still talking about niggas in paris, while nas spittin shit that the common man can zone out and relate to.

Agreed. Jay tried the more mature run on "Kingdom Come" (a highly underrated, very good album to me), got some flack for it and hasn't been rhyming like Common since.

Yes!!!

he said that he would slap anyone who had an issue with her using the word and said that she is "one of us" and can say whatever she wants .... the fuck? The old Nas would have never said some dumb shit like that

Plus all the songs I have heard on the new album are about Brazilian hoes this Cuban bitches that ... he doesnt sound like he has much love left for bw therefore I have no love left for him (let them Cuban hoes support him)

I'm shocked he even came in #1 cuz most of the bw I know who were fans of his since our early teens (he was my fave rapper since I was 14) dont like him anymore and didnt buy this new album ... guess his cooning for Gwyneth helped him score some points and sales with the non black sluts and probably niggas liked him even more since he openly cooned for a white bitch ... he has his new fan base .... he doesnt need us anymore ... just like the rest of ya'll

The "old" Nas made a rhyme about snuffing Jesus.

I'm surprised he came in at #1 too but it has more to do with him delivering quality material and the sales bar being so low to be number one in any given week. He delivered what his audience expects and likes and they turned out.

no matter how many "exotic" groupies dude has smashed or rapped about he had his children with 2 black women. he attempted marriage with a black woman. what does that tell you?

and its funny... the man laid out exactly what he's looking for in a woman very eloquently on this song. take a listen but at the end of the day nas dont owe u or me a damn thing.

 

[Mr. Met]

You might have a legit grievance.
