[@jayraider521614]

Hit Boy is to Nas what we had hoped Kanye was going to be to Nas.

[@DonBienveRosario15]

I think Hit Boy is more pure right know than Kanye maybe 2005 ye would have been perfect

[@pinesol2011]

Probably could have been if YE wasn't tryna rush him to get an album done in a week💯

[@positivejames]

I’d love to see Apollo brown do something with nas

[@KeptChrissy]

He wasn’t the old Kanye though 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@ojeladeadesoji9800]

Nas trying to get as many classics as he can under his own label.

[@Shysta30]

Facts

[@AFO_AnalyRics]

I've really considered this. It just might be possible that Nas's less stellar albums (particularly in the 2000s and 2010s) were so because he just wasn't interested in digging that deep and giving his all to a project that won't ultimately be his. Ever since he's been on his own, there's been an entire switch in energy - especially his beat selections, which many thought was his weakness.

[@quentinh3140]

@@AFO_AnalyRics yeah, also the fact that KD 1 was gonna be a simple valentine ep but he got hyped while making it then turned it into a full album. Mans just tasted those vibes and now hes hungry again

[@wc6081]

Amazed how these young cats are so into “old school hiphop”, lyric driven rap… Salutations to y’all!

[@McStrokeAvision]

Maybe they got raised right. My son is 5 he’s into Michael Jackson, Stevie wonder, 2pac and Nas. Also thinks Kobe Bryant is the greatest thing ever lol.

[@bowling4clarity817]

HitBoy gave ill tracks, but the fact is, Nas is driving this project with his lyrics. No singer chorus. Only rapped hooks by Nas. I even noticed that HitBoy doesn't use his signature HitBoy tag at the beginning of each beat. That's a first. This project will be highly regarded in Nas catalog similar to how the original Lost Tapes was .

[@mgopaul27]

I picked up on that too! That Hit Boy didn't incorporate his usual tag. There's definitely something special about this project. Concise, focused, just lyric-driven and raw like classic Nasir.

[@lorenzoburton3974]

Wow. I didn’t notice the tag was missing.

[@Rctm13]

Preach it!!

Nas is at a beautiful spot in his life and it shows. He’s always been #1 to me. Since kd1 you can just tell he’s enjoying life these days. Happy for him man. Can’t wait for kd3! That shit is gonna be nuts. They 3 for 3, so far. Also, dope break down of the album. Video was well done.

[@01eddiekane]

Im 44 years old the fact that Nas my fave rapper of all time has evolved so much to this time and era … my 18 yr old told me “now i can see why j cole admires nas so much

[@_kaztro]

“Start a company from one of my phrases”….illmatic = Lipmatic, Esco clothing, Mass Appeal etc…he meant it literally and figuratively…He been inspiring and now he talkin that shit cause dummy’s don’t ever get to give him credit…Sometimes you gotta let ‘em know

[@harrykatsaros]

Been looking forward to this video. Nobody breaks it down like you two. You pick up on all the intricacies of the rhyme scheme and stuff that every other dude on KZbin totally misses, and that goes double for a Nas project. Nas is his own worst enemy in that it comes so effortless that we don't realise how next level it all is. With this on the back of KD2 Nas wins 2021 hands down. Everybody else need to take a seat because the senior citizen just dunked on all y'all.

[@jamesfleming2532]

What he just said ☝🏾

[@jonathancoleman9266]

Super dope seeing younger listeners react to classic artist like Nas haven't seen too many youngins Rock with, like, or understand this type of music

[@mocapcow2933]

People don’t dislike lyrical shit in hip hop, they just want it done right. And Nas is a prime example, old hip hop that evolved on time and it’s still great. That most people can enjoy.

💯🎯💯

[@TheMarinoFam]

Great video. Nas got me into hip hop in the 90s. This only solidifies him as the GOAT and silences the doubters 🤫 🐐

nas got the crown now! Nas has 19 albums and hov has 18 (including Jay electronicas which I consider a joint album) Jay gonna need to make a miracle album if he wanna match the Magic album. Better call Mary J Blige, Scarface n beans, get you a Kendrick feature, premo, zaytoven, he better have some old Kanye beats stashed away, cause if he gonna make an album it's gonna have to be the best thing that ever happened to him
