I´m so addicted to this...! That only happens with the good things life brings me. Not much rappers master to this level, deep content with dope music... Nas thinks things through, nowadays many people don´t wanna think, they just want to live life blindly and life passes by real quick...We gotta search for a meaning. Precious music. Hip- hop haters can´t put this material down.
