Nas FT. Cormega, Kamakazee - On The Real (Rare Track)

[@maxwelllino2336]

This is from Marley's "FUTURE FLAVA SHOW" this type of rawness you don't even hear nowadays.

[@doubleclutch4369]

Whats crazy is I always forward to Cormega's verse on a NAS song with one of his best verses

[@EHinn]

Heard this on a dj clue mixtape (cassette!) in 95? Never forgot it but could never find it. God bless the internet

If Nas was to do a versus against Jay……this would be a perfect song to kick it off……a street banger that hasn’t been over exposed …but when the beat drop…..it’s gonna come back to people like “oh!!”

[@doitforjack15]

I first heard this on 99.9 Stretch & Bobbito...shout to all the real hip hop heads

[@registame2878]

The legendary show, they had heat. I think those dudes got hidden diamonds and gold

[@Cashmere.Kufi_88]

Had this on a mix tape 95-96 timeframe along with You'll See by Big and LOX had to be the best underground mixed tape I ever heard

[@registame2878]

Knowledge. Goodtimes. Pull them tapes out and feel good dude. Blessings

[@cwpalacios1]

Bad Boy Vol 3 mixed by Stretch Armstrong. It was the second song on side a.

@@cwpalacios1rewound those two tracks so much… Between Puff screaming and that tape’s particularly loud mastering of this clanging piano loop my Aiwa headphones were leaking obnoxious on every train and bus I rode that Spring and Summer.

[@perrynnlynch1883]

No doubt! I guess we're showing how much older we all are now, lol. It's all good.

[@Olyphantman]

NaS flow and story telling ability is bar none

[@anthonykojalowicz8189]

Whats crazy is that Nas originally wanted his second album done solely by Marly! And this was done right before he hooked up with Stout.

[@djst9792]

“It was written” ended up classic as is …would have been nice for “I am” though ….the production slid down hill on that one ….Marley has a bar …he always come correct.

[@seanharris140]

How this never really got refined and made an album is nuts to me.

[@hiphopheads_]

@@djst9792 I Am... the Original was good most of the production on Disc 1 was Trackmasters besides Undying Love, N.Y. State Of Mind Pt. II and Wanna Play Rough which was Dame Grease and L.E.S. Disc 2 was mostly Dame Grease and L.E.S. besides DJ Premier doing Nas Is Like they did most of it Dr. Knockboot sticks out like a sore thumb on the Original because of how great the rest of the project is but 1 filler track doesn't kill the album for me It's not bad enough to tank it still a classic just Hope The Curse leaks someday and the Original Album leaks even though it's leaked I mean Leaked as in Synced and all of that because that likely happened Nas was already sending Nas Is Like to DJs in January of 99 so that was still going to be the first single along w Hate Me Now being the 2nd just wish he stuck to the concept he should've went the Murda Muzik route Change some song titles hell Project Windows and Hate Me Now samples didn't get cleared anyways so the Retail ver. of those songs could've just went on the project Fetus rename it to My Belly Button Window Day Dreamin', Stay Schemin' just shorten it to Stay Schemin' Shorten Dr. Knockboot (Do's And Donts) to just Dr. Knockboot like they did and boomThere you go most of Disc 1 is cool and none of Disc 2 was on the Bootleg so literally that's fine and Boom you still got a classic in my eyes

[@djmp4587]

I remember taping this track in September 1995 from Marley marl show Future flava and that wa the first time it got played on the radio as an exclusive

[@djmp4587]

also Nas used his verse as freestyle on Yo MTV raps when Mobb Deep dropped the Infamous and they had Nas and Rae in the studio

[@1neega]

It's just amazing that this instru remains confidential in the Hip Hop history. One of the best song ever produced, even if a little slow in this version. Exceptional.

[@juseasy9308]

This was to ME the original version because it's the one I heard FIRST. I wore the fuck out of the TDR tape I had this on. This was my first time hearing Cormega and been a fan since. Can't wait for The Realness 2. "Shareholders of the CULTURE"
