I know, and it surfaced on the net last year sometime. Probably on this site even. That’s my point. Great track though, but I was expecting something I hadn’t heard before.
Oh my motherfucking god. This is what we need.. Nas Will Allways Be The Greatest of ALL time. Dead or alive no one is close to him. Thank you for this.
The beats ok, but Nas’ flow is mediocre on this song and his bar lengths aren’t consistent enough. Not his greatest effort, but I’m feelin the beat so I’m anticipating the album.
This track is dumb old, but is appearing on that new Melo mixtape. This is okay, but no where near Lost Tapes 2 calibre material. Nas has waaay better unreleased joints in the stash that he could go back and polish up. I really hope its not on Lost Tapes 2.
The fact that I heard this and have had it on my ‘all music’ playlist for way over a year now takes nothing away from the fact that this track is amazing lyrically, beat wise and the flow is good enough.
What i am disappointed in is the fact that HHDX seem to think this is brand new… Come on now, did they not even think to google it?
nas just killed this !!! the greatest mc of all time surely the second coming of rakim, him and gza should do a track that would be soo ill over some ny state of mind beat
Nas is one of the GOATS hands down….My top 10 NO ORDER…
1. Nas
2. Kool G Rap
3. Pharoahe Monch
4. Big Pun
5. Slim Shady (obv moreso his untouchable 96/97-02 prime)
6. Big L
7. Common Sense(prime ish especially…his top 50 songs ever can compete with damn near anyone and has some hot features w/ Mos, Talib, Monch, Black Thought, etc)
8. Black Thought
9. 2Pac (passion, versatility, success, emotion)
10. BIG (2 classic albums)
Honarable Mentions: Jay-Z(for his 96-03 prime), Elzhi, Crooked I, Diabolic, Copywrite, Slug, Louis Logic, KRS-One, Rakim, Kweli, Mos Def, Method Man, Redman, GZA, Canibus, One Be Lo, Royce, Budden, Jada and Styles P (moreso Jada lyrically), Chuck D, MF Doom, Vinnie Paz, Immortal Tech, Brother Ali, Apathy, Chief Kamachi
pharoah monch over tupac c’mon eminem doesnt even desrve to be above tupac. And common no, shits weak. I see you like conscious rap which i do to but keep that list to yourself.
yeah I agree with the other two above me…Nas definitely was inspired by Rakim and the likes of Slick Rick for the storytelling but everybody has their own opinion but my personal #1 is Nas as well! It’s all opinions! lol
Question : Do you think a GOAT time list should consist of artist’s who were only great at a certain period of time?… I mean that beats the purpose of being the go”All”t.
“and common no, shits weak” WTF? Obviously you’ve never thoroughly listened to like water for chocolate. Listen to Hungry off of one day it’ll all make sense. Before I say what I wanna say I gotta give my fellow hip hop fan a chance to see.
Can’t believe, well i can, that some people cudnt read the ‘NO ORDER’…
I agree with that list purely because of Honorable mentions, personal preference makes me wanna re-arrange it a bit but it’s all good.
Came in drankin rollin up stankin white boy wasted frat house wasted
Amazin like my bracelet I’m flossin r.i.p the mike the ice got my chest moon walkin
Cabbage patchin bouncin like bankin
Pull up in the drop top ferrari on bank head
Colder than a polar bear sleepin in the freezer
She wish she never met me wanna catch amnesia
Gucci mane crazy I mite pull up on a zebra
Land on top a eagle smoke a joint of reefa
Standin on the sofa spillin liquor on the speaker
Call the paralegal cuz this shit should be illegal
why people keep on saying its old. duh idiots thats probably why its going to be on lost tapes 2.thats the whole point lost material most people havent heard. why would he put all new material and name it lost tapes.
maybe its just me…but i’m noticing that 90s east coast era hip hop is becoming a rising trend again. That real shit never dies, you just gotta know where to look for it.
its not just you…i blame it on an emcee like drake (right next to lil wayne aka the lil kids tupac) being all over the radio,making lyrics cool again…and wiz khalifa,he brought that method man redman style hip-hop back….
u trippen…the beat matters bro….compare the beats on illmatic and it was written to the beats on I am or nastradamus,the lyrics are raw as fuck but which albums were better? nas shud pick ill beats an even venture to some southern shit…he RIPPED “Your gonna love me (remix)” an that was south
This song is ill…but considering how old it is(about three years old)…it makes wonder how much these guy at Hiphopdx follow hip-hop…a song like this should never slip through the cracks(especially it being a Nas song). Step it up guys, forget about staying current on Mac Miller songs.
Like 3yrs old? N**** Please…. Diamond D (stunts blunts) – 1992 I went for mine! GO LISTEN !!!!! original hip-hop forgotten! Busta’s was cool but NaS is legend.
Its what we come to expect from Nas. Ever since Stillmatic, everything he drops is critically acclaimed, and this is no difference. I wonder if this is old though, because I remember hearing this 2nd verse on his Rap City Freestyle in 08 or 09.
Shout out to Diamond D first and foremost for the flippin this beat back in the day. Shout out my Nigga Nasty Nas for taking it back and blessing heads with this HIP-HOP shit, thank-you fam! The Future Here, Gods’ Get Ya Money Up and Love God.
This May have been A Busta Rhymes track,but no disrespect to Busta,Nas does Justices for the track.When I Heard this beat over 4 years ago,I Just couldn’t put a finger on who sound it was.”This is Vintage Nas”.Busta & Swiss did Alright though
Nas ripped it!! but the editor says Nasty nas is back..when did he ever leave? he matured and grew as an artist..i’ll always buy his music..he always comes with a message and quality material..Nas the best Alive
Fuck off u tampon wearing cum dumpster…gucci man are you fuckin serious? Didn’t he suck lil Wayne dick (allegedly)? I’m pretty sure u have. Pull ur head outta ur mans ass and learn the difference between rap and hip hop cunty. U ain’t wanted on this site ur better suited for iwannafucklilwayneinthearse.com
Even though this dropped like 3 or 4 yrs ago, respect to the indisputable second best ever (Behind Rakim the modern emcee prototype) for getting busy over this classic Diamond D loop. Real shit for life fuck the creampuff pop-tart cornballz!
OMG… Nas you’re so fucking hot. Let’s butt fuck each other my batty boy. I’m put my cock in your mouth and we’ll eat our shit and lick the cum off our faces.
Man this song is old not just the beat but the lyrics as well. We need something new Nas come on wit Lost Tapes 2 where are you. Shit put it yourself forget Def Jam release that joint we need some real music again.
NOW YOU’RE TALKING!!!! I dont care how old or new this joint is, but damn I hope Nas’s new album will be on this level or better, no more rhyming over wack-ass Wil-I-Am’s beats….WTF
I love to hate on Will.i.am as much as the next guy. I mean mutherfucker think he in daft punk now, and its getting pretty goddamn ridiculous. But, having said that, his collaborations with Nas on “Who killed it” and “Can’t forget about you” are nothing short of outstanding…so, i’ll take that collab any day.
I agree! NO MORE WILL.I.AM BEATS NAS PLEEEEEEASE! This is coming from your number one fan bro…that dude is wak! He’s wak on the beats and on the mic…but he can dance his ass off though…SALAAM REMI! SALAAM REMI! Let him produce THE WHOLE THING! I love some people are dreaming but NO MORE KANYE BEATS EITHER…HE’s DOPE BUT NOT FOR YOU HOMEY!
Man i love Nas when he drop song like this, when he on that other shhh, man cant miss with him, but that nigga always been night with the mic, remind me of rakim back in the days man, he have the ability to be one of the best mc out there for sure, but seem to me nas have to make some wack music first get his whore card pull before he go back into the lab and do songs like this loving it man still queens, NYC bady
That Nigga Was Vibing On This Shit. HaHa!! i Hope tHE wHOLE aLBUM iS lAID bACK aND cOOL lIKE tHIS tRACK.tHATS wHY hE’S mY #1 oF aLL tIME ALONG wITH 2pAC. tHAT nIGGA sAID,” oLD sCHOOL, i pOWDERED my necK”
TOP 5:
1. NAS & 2pAC
2. bIGGIE
3. jAY-Z
4. Rick Ross
5. lil wayne (I’m From the Boot. Gotta rep home)
I always liked this sample.Nas always does his thing.he used that shit Alecia keys said on Def Poetry Jam.This is cool.Not a radio record but,just Nas spittin.He spit some shit on here.
Peep the new world order line in there somewhere. Listen close for those lines…real artists are letting the truth out for all of us. Lupe, Nas, Damian Marley, and I wonder who’s next.
hands up if u miss nas (hand stretched in the air) i dont think this is his best shizzle but you will all agree we need to hear more of nas flow and teach, 5 stars jsut cause that my rapper
Nas lyrical game is the best in hip-hop music… past, present and future… If you don’t know, Nasir Jones is the kingpen of The BIG East Coast New York hip-hop…
ayo Nas sed hiphop is dead. i just heard 2 white dudes that for real ressurected it. reallest hiphop record i heard in a minute and NOONE even heard of dudes b4, that real fire is back son! Nas, u was wrong…and white ppl did it? SMH damn son the game done changed.
listen to these white dudes at byebyeamerica.com shits sooo ill!
When he made those comments HipHop was dead and there was alot of bullshit that was being put out. Alot of copycat songs and a lack of originality. You know nothing about rap….u just try to big up white rappers!
Gucci Mane will destroy this pussy skinny jean nigga. Gucci Mane is classic hip hop who raps about tough times in the hood. Nas raps about parties and can’t speak English properly. GUCCI!
As part of my new years resolution I’m not gonna tell you “kill yo self!” as I normally would, but I AM going to kindly ask you to remove yourself from this plane of existence! And I’m also not gonna say that your comment is arguably the dumbest statement since lil wayne’s declaration of him being the best rapped of…well anything, but I AM gonna say that you have been GROSSLY misinformed about what is concidered to be great when it comes to the art form we all love known as Hip-Hop. Oh and just to cover all the bases if what I’ve posted is too much to read (because I’m positive some of you will say such) then you’ve already lost. You’re welcome! 🙂
Pimp, your comment seems completely opposite of the truth maybe you just started listening to hiphop(nas) and rap(gucci mane) cause Nas is been about the street life to rapping about success and life as a whole and grew up and keeps it real vs. gucci talks bout bricks, partying, icy and so on but aint nothing changing in his music it’s dance party music even pop music but aint no progress as far as his music goes gucci aint trying to rap about hustling to get paid and get out he glorifies that mess with no real exit strategy.
i think this is off of lost tapes 2 thats why hes talkin bout stillmatic n shtt
if you likd this
check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxEtfs36qpg
lemme know what you think hiphopdx
MESSAGE TO BRIAN TATE: GO LISTEN TO 5% BY PREMIER, KRS AND GRAND PUPA; YOU NEED A LESSON IN REAL HIP HOP CAUSE YOU LACK THE TRUTH ESPECIALLY BY LOOKING AT THAT GOOFY ASS PHOTO. YOU MUST EAT SWINE MAKING A STATEMENT LIKE THAT!
This ain’t shit! Somebody tell this old nigga his time is gone. He simply can’t compete with today’s new talent. Jay Electronia is Better!
Drake is Better! And yes, Rick Ross Is Better! Step it up old nigga
Funny you say Nas is old and then use Jay Electronica and Rick Ross who are both a few years younger than him and nearing 35. And Drake is nowhere near as good as Nas. Tell Drake he needs to step it up.
funny all these people go out they way to say Nas is wack and use new rappers to compare him. Rick Ross is NOT lyrically….Drake is ONE album in. Look at the body of work before you compare. Internet gangstas are so wack. If he so wack why post…idiots
Nas is the reason alot of rapperes had to step they lyrical game up, now you got dudes sounding like robots wich is cool and i feel the new generation, but dont forget who set the bar… N A S are the letters that spell….NAS!!!!!!!!!!!!
funny how you can tell the difference between the 25+ year olds and the 18 and younger dudes. gucci man is wack that mf”’er is buggin. nad talk real hip hop and is a story teller. put on poison and rewin, listen to gods son and nastradamas,nas is legendary top 5 all day young fellas, get off lil wayne and guccis and rick ross and them other wack ass rappers( wayne could be lyrical at times but no where compared to nas.) i know the older dudes readin this get it, and real hip hop is dying. this new shit i call it club hop cuz its just about beats and a good flow. but the words is whats important, not that fake ass i got a lambo(that u rented) fake ass fages. kill yoself
While I agree with your words, I wouldn’t categorize by age. I know most young people have no idea what real hip hop is but there are older guys in that boat too.
Im 24 and honestly the first rap CD I ever bought was Chronic 2001. What a choice huh? I woulda been in Junior High School. But I know real hip hop. I still throw on Illmatic. I have a huge collection of CDs and honestly year after year i find myself buying less albums each year. These new cats are exactly what you said “Club hop”. Im all about lyrics and Poison and Rewind are two great songs. Rewind i think is lyrically genius.
Just sayin there are young folks that know goood hip hop and there are old folks who don’t. Its all about having the right mindset.
i’m 19 but i know EXACTLY what you talking about, all my friends bump weezy and gucci and fucking Rick ross.. it’s mad annoying, i hardly listen to any new rappers only a few. I’ll just listen to the Big’s nas and wu tang now cause all this new music is just shit. When im drinking i might listen to it cause it is “Club hop” But few new rappers to look at are XV, J. Cole, and Evidence
drake is wack, weezy over-rated, lil kim is old hag need to stop it she’s nice tho but dont bring that shit to this era. u cant recover shit. ross is a poor ass nigga he got good songs but albums wack, gucci is my nigga, dont hate waka if u didnt hear his album or dont understand him. all these old rappers respect im done listenning to them but still will bump some times. kanye think he’s a genius but he;s just acting damn white. look at runaway video. fuck otta here. jay should only make remix tired of his old ass. good thing he sold rocawear those shit was ugly frm the beginning made me think i dont want to hear swagger like us frm u. u got no swag. beyonce trying to get some swag for u nigga. drake nigga u wak talking shit weak and fishy punch lines. nigga i got all yall albums fuk outta here.
Premo is dope but his music follows the same drum and scratch pattern. Nas should benefit from a bit more diversity ala “If I Ruled the World”, “Get Down”, “Street Dreams”, “The World is Yours”, “Can’t Forget About You”, etc…
Nas and Az need to do a solo album an ep or something this is a must for hip hop PLEASE…and understand Nas does not waste money on promotions he is very minimal with that he just know he has a loyal fan base and aint trying to sell crazy units, he said it himself gonna go gold with no promotion or platinum if he does and he is fine. Who you know from mid 90’s that is still relevant in the game now? who so respect the man he’s had the fame, made money and is doing the music he wanna do for himself, fans, and not the labels…GOOGlE open letter to LA Reid and understand how this man is on some G shit and aint trying to run with the crowd…the man can if he want to be on every radio station, commercials, endorsements but he aint about that life the man is a millionaire doing what he loves respect that.
I love Nas one of the best lyricist to ever touch a mic and is not going to be surpassed any time by few of the up and coming artists. Nas was the rare emcee that had flow, punchlines, complex rhyme schemes, and relevant and controversial content to his raps. Plus he might be the king at dropping knowledge on a track to the masses. But he is not a better rapper then Jay Z he’s just not. Jay would of killed this beat too and it reminds me a lot of the vibe of his Kingdom Come album.
I got mad love for Jay Z make no doubt!!!
He’s a genius.
But Nas will always be number one for me!!!
NO PLAY MAKE JACK LAME
“Got so much love i shot cupid in the heart”
Live HipHop Live!!!!
I’d love to see it but I doubt it happening. Nas and AZ don’t seem to work together much these days. Sosa hinted at putting the mic down after Doe or Die 2 too. I hope he don’t. I do need me another Cormega album tho…
My brain actually released endorphines or whatever that shit is as i was listening to this. No fuckin joke! And the first time i heard this beat was on Diamond D’s 1st album. Ima real hiphop head!!!!
5 star always
Welcome Back Nas
This is old…
It’s from Street’s Disciple – unreleased track
super old. but i still rock with it then and now
I know, and it surfaced on the net last year sometime. Probably on this site even. That’s my point. Great track though, but I was expecting something I hadn’t heard before.
Wow. Exactly what the game needs right now.
Not just Nas. But this Nas.
i was a fucked up day and i heard this took me to another place
5
Can’t wait for more..
Poetic genius at its best
Only Nasir Jones
Good non-corny metaphors
Hope drake & nMinaj could learn from this
Doope
This is off the lost tapes vol 2
your a complete idiot. it was a streets disciple throwaway that melo is putting on his mixtape.
Dis shh crazy…i’m a nas fan to the fullest and never heard this joint…if its old show me where it was lol…
Yeah. I have this classic cut in the stash. It’s a Street’s Disciple throwaway. His throwaways are better than most people main releases.
he got lyrics but he sound the same on every record would 2 do a song with and out shine him just 4 the record
haha. wita comment like that not suprised ya name is mario. ahha
Oh my motherfucking god. This is what we need.. Nas Will Allways Be The Greatest of ALL time. Dead or alive no one is close to him. Thank you for this.
Agreed goddammit!! Damn this is refreshing to hear. Too much garbage out nowadays.
some of this verse is on the new york shit remix
Yo this joint is soo hot this the Nas I remember!!!!
Everyone I’ve heard rock this Diamond D instrumental kills it. Nice to hear Nas again. Can’t wait for the new album. Hope he gets a few Premo cuts!
still my favorite rapper
i never heard it so its new.and its fucking hot!!!
thats why he’s the best. he’s talkin about real shit.
Never on schedule but always on time.
So nice to hear him flow again… Nas get yo ass back in the top 3 man Hip Hop Needs you!
This aint even new… step ya games up. any real nas fans know
yea this super old lol… but it’s still fresh QB Finest
Nas is back
shits dope but i hate recycled beats
This track is awesome but seriously, it’s two years old. It was called “Something Foul” before.
>>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-wRnQuMtEI
sounds old and gets tiring. nas can do better, way better. he should go talk to kanye and get on a a good friday and kill one
Cant wait for the album!
Rap – Hip Hop
The beats ok, but Nas’ flow is mediocre on this song and his bar lengths aren’t consistent enough. Not his greatest effort, but I’m feelin the beat so I’m anticipating the album.
this is going to be on the melo mixtape, not on any nas album.
stfu Cogna; trying to critique one of the best ever from a technical aspect…bar lengths aren’t consistent enough? wtf
this beat is so cool but Nas made it even better with His cool flow and amezing lyrics
Sick from Nasty NaS as always, but this has been out for a while; been on the iPod since the spring. This gonne be on the next album?
This track is dumb old, but is appearing on that new Melo mixtape. This is okay, but no where near Lost Tapes 2 calibre material. Nas has waaay better unreleased joints in the stash that he could go back and polish up. I really hope its not on Lost Tapes 2.
The fact that I heard this and have had it on my ‘all music’ playlist for way over a year now takes nothing away from the fact that this track is amazing lyrically, beat wise and the flow is good enough.
What i am disappointed in is the fact that HHDX seem to think this is brand new… Come on now, did they not even think to google it?
Nice track!!!!ESCO!
its old but its still relevant.
nas, WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU, nigga needs to save us from drake lil wayne and soulja boy
It’s only been 6 months since Distant Relatives.
5/5 ,but this one is not new
Nas top 5 dead or alive… Its only right hes back now that NY is dominating Hip Hop right now…
average
Nas is the shit!! Make more music! Do more tours! we want more!
Thiz iz Hip Hop I feel like 94 Gunz Shotz and hoes. The Streetz. Playboy
This is because The Industry Purpose won’t make a dollar.Do you know that there is better rappers out there than what’s on the radio today.
Whew, he blew that Diamond D beat!
nas just killed this !!! the greatest mc of all time surely the second coming of rakim, him and gza should do a track that would be soo ill over some ny state of mind beat
Nas is a King. One other hard working brotha in this hip hop game.
This song is old. It was called “Something Foul” and you guys posted it a while ago
Not new, but Fire nice addition to that Melo mixtape!
Old. Get your act together.
Can’t really argue with this shit, not even a little bit. Old, but damn it it’s good.
Hip hop will live as long as this man does, mad respect for this track Nasty!!

Everyone knows that Nas took his style from Rakim, so why dont you put the original at the 1 spot
pharoah monch over tupac c’mon eminem doesnt even desrve to be above tupac. And common no, shits weak. I see you like conscious rap which i do to but keep that list to yourself.
^^^he said no order dumbass
yeah I agree with the other two above me…Nas definitely was inspired by Rakim and the likes of Slick Rick for the storytelling but everybody has their own opinion but my personal #1 is Nas as well! It’s all opinions! lol
Question : Do you think a GOAT time list should consist of artist’s who were only great at a certain period of time?… I mean that beats the purpose of being the go”All”t.

I agree with that list purely because of Honorable mentions, personal preference makes me wanna re-arrange it a bit but it’s all good.
Nas is God. Nas is GOAT. Nas is HIP HOP… Ether these pussy ass rappers.

my 4 year old nephew can write better shit than that
NaS. Nuff said.
The.Greatest.Of.All.Time.
Listen to his unreleased shit on YouTube, sooo amazing.
OLD!
Still good though.
my nigga nas, greatest of all time, lyrics and flow still smoooooooth
NaS is incredible!! “Rewind” is one of my all time favorite songs for many reasons.
first time i heard this sample was on “i went for mine” off of diamond d’s classic stunts, blunts & hip hop
no doubt great song, but why is hiphopdx putting out this now?! too old to be put out unless analyzed, which it isn’t.
NAS>JAY
You wish
I second that Nas>Jay.
NAS>JAY
NAs is greater than JAy-Z hand f**king down.
nas>jay
NAS>>>>>>jay
why people keep on saying its old. duh idiots thats probably why its going to be on lost tapes 2.thats the whole point lost material most people havent heard. why would he put all new material and name it lost tapes.
Jay-Z = GOD + Nas = God’s son. do the math
yo, i wonder if this track will be on the lost tapes pt.2… i heard this one before its still dope as shit
YA this is a track from last year called “somethin foul” amazing song nonetheless
lol wtf hiphopdx. u uploaded this song so long ago i remember. but it was named something foul not foul breeze. nevertheless its a great track
this is old…like 07
maybe its just me…but i’m noticing that 90s east coast era hip hop is becoming a rising trend again. That real shit never dies, you just gotta know where to look for it.
its not just you…i blame it on an emcee like drake (right next to lil wayne aka the lil kids tupac) being all over the radio,making lyrics cool again…and wiz khalifa,he brought that method man redman style hip-hop back….
Nastradamus does it again. I think I like this track better than the Busta joint. BUT Bussabus still fire too!
Nas just hits beats like this out of the ballpark.
5/5 =:xB
People always say Nas pick shit beats but it doesn’t matter when you always spitting crack. If Ross was spitting over Nas beats, he’d be obsolete.
not true! The beat is important to the overall feel of the song!
fuck decoded bitch
u trippen…the beat matters bro….compare the beats on illmatic and it was written to the beats on I am or nastradamus,the lyrics are raw as fuck but which albums were better? nas shud pick ill beats an even venture to some southern shit…he RIPPED “Your gonna love me (remix)” an that was south
WACK as usual
fuck ur cunt mother….this shit is fire!
stfu! probably some1 who listened 2 hip hop right now. Nas> your life
your mother wacks me till i’m ready for your Sister…
punk son of a feg
REAL HIP HOP IS BACK…
This is FIRE
your a f#ckin idiot go bump bieber you tool bag
Same Flo different song!!
your a fckin idiot go bump bieber you tool bag
This is like 6 years old people!
This song is ill…but considering how old it is(about three years old)…it makes wonder how much these guy at Hiphopdx follow hip-hop…a song like this should never slip through the cracks(especially it being a Nas song). Step it up guys, forget about staying current on Mac Miller songs.
GOAT
This Is Old We Need New Nas Material ASAP
2 YEARS OLD
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pO7imVMEwec
Good song, but old.
Got me excited for nothin HipHopDX!!
Sh*t is hella old!
How bout you DX deez nuts!!!
Man…this is solid and amazing!
real hip hop.
J Cole for the next illmatic level classic!
This is the track of my life, i know its old but damn I just cant get bored of it. In my top 10 all time greatest rap tracks without a doubt
Nas has been very consistent since illmatic and still very underrated and hes been making classic albums
I once gave my girlfriend a nas,it was illmatic 😉
i had this since last year but this version is mastered!nas is the G.O.A.T!!
this song is still Amazing! 5/5
GOD’S alive
nas!
recycled beats make me sick…. exclusives please
THEN PRODUCE SOME SHIT GET IT HEARD AND SLANG TO SOME WORTHY ARTIST…UNTIL THEN GTFO
people who complain about dope tracks with “anonymous” make me sick..
Like 3yrs old? N**** Please…. Diamond D (stunts blunts) – 1992 I went for mine! GO LISTEN !!!!! original hip-hop forgotten! Busta’s was cool but NaS is legend.
Its what we come to expect from Nas. Ever since Stillmatic, everything he drops is critically acclaimed, and this is no difference. I wonder if this is old though, because I remember hearing this 2nd verse on his Rap City Freestyle in 08 or 09.
nasty we all heard it b4…… its still nasty Nas is the second best ever…..Rakim is first…….my opinion dont respond….jus leave yours
i agree with u dog
rakim number 1 then nas then eminem then jayz
1. Nas

This song is from the El Dorado Black Project mixtape but it is still hot i cant wait for lost tapes 2 and his book of rhyme book to drop.
Nas= The GOAT
5 stars

Shout out to Diamond D first and foremost for the flippin this beat back in the day. Shout out my Nigga Nasty Nas for taking it back and blessing heads with this HIP-HOP shit, thank-you fam! The Future Here, Gods’ Get Ya Money Up and Love God.
This May have been A Busta Rhymes track,but no disrespect to Busta,Nas does Justices for the track.When I Heard this beat over 4 years ago,I Just couldn’t put a finger on who sound it was.”This is Vintage Nas”.Busta & Swiss did Alright though
nas is one of the few artist that hardly ever lets you down!!
Nas ripped it!! but the editor says Nasty nas is back..when did he ever leave? he matured and grew as an artist..i’ll always buy his music..he always comes with a message and quality material..Nas the best Alive
Nas is a special mc. Busta is probably like damn!! He ripped the track. You gotta respect his wordplay and vocab. THIS IS HIP-HOP!!!
the new mastered track is on the Carmelo Anthony mixtape.
A five star joint without question!!
Nas needs to have his next album be entirely produced by kanye west, premo, q-tip and salaam remi.
add pete rock and agreed
this song is mad old but it’s seems more different. been heard this. i have this on my ipod and had for over a year
this was out before. still tight though.
Great
sounds better than what nas has been putting out. Nas just doesnt excite me anymore. 3/5
an older joint but closest thing to 5 stars on here in awhile.
Fuck off u tampon wearing cum dumpster…gucci man are you fuckin serious? Didn’t he suck lil Wayne dick (allegedly)? I’m pretty sure u have. Pull ur head outta ur mans ass and learn the difference between rap and hip hop cunty. U ain’t wanted on this site ur better suited for iwannafucklilwayneinthearse.com
Eat a dick u dumb cunt
@grown man talk

Don’t worry I’m sure henhas a future as an aids patient

Good stuff.

nasty nas is really back. showing you why he is the GOAT.
Really Old Song but still classic. Must be going on lost tapes 2
Even though this dropped like 3 or 4 yrs ago, respect to the indisputable second best ever (Behind Rakim the modern emcee prototype) for getting busy over this classic Diamond D loop. Real shit for life fuck the creampuff pop-tart cornballz!
Damnnnnn I miss Nassssssssssssssssssssssss…Drop that Album already
OMG… Nas you’re so fucking hot. Let’s butt fuck each other my batty boy. I’m put my cock in your mouth and we’ll eat our shit and lick the cum off our faces.

SSO – Faded Lady
5
hes 1 of da Best Rappers Ever 4 me
nasty nas
Nas IS My #1. I love when they try to hold dis dude down he drops music like this
song may be old but it only show he raps timeless
I know Busta used this sample but I think Diamond D blessed us with it first
Very true. good ear. dx needs to do some betta muthafuckin research.
NOW YOU’RE TALKING!!!! I dont care how old or new this joint is, but damn I hope Nas’s new album will be on this level or better, no more rhyming over wack-ass Wil-I-Am’s beats….WTF
I love to hate on Will.i.am as much as the next guy. I mean mutherfucker think he in daft punk now, and its getting pretty goddamn ridiculous. But, having said that, his collaborations with Nas on “Who killed it” and “Can’t forget about you” are nothing short of outstanding…so, i’ll take that collab any day.
I agree! NO MORE WILL.I.AM BEATS NAS PLEEEEEEASE! This is coming from your number one fan bro…that dude is wak! He’s wak on the beats and on the mic…but he can dance his ass off though…SALAAM REMI! SALAAM REMI! Let him produce THE WHOLE THING! I love some people are dreaming but NO MORE KANYE BEATS EITHER…HE’s DOPE BUT NOT FOR YOU HOMEY!
SORRY GUYS, BUT THIS IS OLD, BUT ILL TAKE IT 5/5. ID EVEN TAKE IT ON THE NEW ALBUM!!!
Man i love Nas when he drop song like this, when he on that other shhh, man cant miss with him, but that nigga always been night with the mic, remind me of rakim back in the days man, he have the ability to be one of the best mc out there for sure, but seem to me nas have to make some wack music first get his whore card pull before he go back into the lab and do songs like this loving it man still queens, NYC bady
please comeback nas
That Nigga Was Vibing On This Shit. HaHa!! i Hope tHE wHOLE aLBUM iS lAID bACK aND cOOL lIKE tHIS tRACK.tHATS wHY hE’S mY #1 oF aLL tIME ALONG wITH 2pAC. tHAT nIGGA sAID,” oLD sCHOOL, i pOWDERED my necK”

Love this track. Heard it a while back, but it’s still gutta
Yeah…..5s
beat is wackk!
I always liked this sample.Nas always does his thing.he used that shit Alecia keys said on Def Poetry Jam.This is cool.Not a radio record but,just Nas spittin.He spit some shit on here.
Peep the new world order line in there somewhere. Listen close for those lines…real artists are letting the truth out for all of us. Lupe, Nas, Damian Marley, and I wonder who’s next.
your an idiot
^^Haha.
Nasirrrrr Jones is just raw ..ya dig ?
This song’s almost 2 years old:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmmZ_8IWDhc
word
hands up if u miss nas (hand stretched in the air) i dont think this is his best shizzle but you will all agree we need to hear more of nas flow and teach, 5 stars jsut cause that my rapper
Nas lyrical game is the best in hip-hop music… past, present and future… If you don’t know, Nasir Jones is the kingpen of The BIG East Coast New York hip-hop…
Classic hit right here, great production, great lyrics. Great song! Thanks Nas for the hit to vibe too.
This is my winter christmas music. thank you Nas.
Beat is Diamond D – I went for mine
sick old with new versus but sick still
Good shit.
quality lyricism from one of the best rappers of all time
These new rappers couldn’t come close to Nas with semen puddles light years away
great
im still w8ting for lost tape 2
Nice flow, beat is cool but not original enough!!!!
sick as shit sick as always
Nas is the best of all time. Vote for him at the Hip Hop Music Database @ hhmdb.com
Nas is just so dope!
THIS SONG IS RIDICULOUS…10/10
LUPE FIASCO IS THE GOAT…..
my dude go suck a aids dick. lupe is nice but dont get it twisted.
Nas = Greatness!
This is better than Busta Rhymes New York Shit. Nas should have used this for his album.
fire. always.
This fool don’t even know what he’s talking about anymore he just talks. WACK
yO dUMB aSS
its called freestyling asshole you listen to too much gucci
This was on the El Dorado Black Project at least 2 years ago and its still doper than…
ayo Nas sed hiphop is dead. i just heard 2 white dudes that for real ressurected it. reallest hiphop record i heard in a minute and NOONE even heard of dudes b4, that real fire is back son! Nas, u was wrong…and white ppl did it? SMH damn son the game done changed.
listen to these white dudes at byebyeamerica.com shits sooo ill!
When he made those comments HipHop was dead and there was alot of bullshit that was being put out. Alot of copycat songs and a lack of originality. You know nothing about rap….u just try to big up white rappers!
dude just hasn’t sounded the same in a long time…production is tight, but lyrics don’t match its atmosphere
yo dumb ass! unmusically inclined!!!
Nas with his latest single. This music rocks. I like it.
Check out this new artist:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPjGl9aK1ac
This song is a couple years old. I’ve had it for a while under the title “Something Foul” Still sick though
dope as always nas is the best lyricist eva hands down.
The G.O.A.T! Best lyricist!
it dont matter how old or new this is. hands down the best track i have heard all year
i mean….listen to what he sayin…damn
nas is the realest… his to nice.. LISTEN TO WHAT HOMIE IS SAYING
REAL RAPPERS GO SEE DB KOOPA FOR THE BEATS THAT ARE BREAKIN HEARTS ON THE CHARTS
http://www.soundclick.com/dbkoopa
real shit
real hiphop
I’m feelin dis joint son,word up!
yessir boss thug! nas will ride a beat like this in the fuckin ground!! lol
fuxs wit nastrodamus
dis is musical orgasm. damn!!!!!!!!!!
who said nas lost it?
shit is hard. wudnt xpect anything less from a legend like Nas
yo r u tired of bullshit hiphop songs u cant relate to?? like bentleys private jets n bullshit?
check out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxEtfs36qpg
lemme me know what yall think hip hop dx
old as track… dope but how can u say this is new??????? dx fell off son!!
Because Nas just released it… Lost Tapes 2 (2011)
need the album now
This is a CLASSIC!!!!
God Bless NaS!!!
Nas still the man
Nas is the best of all time. Dope track.
nas as always been here nas is my heart its just hiphop baby u gotta love it man nas kills every beat
Gucci Mane will destroy this pussy skinny jean nigga. Gucci Mane is classic hip hop who raps about tough times in the hood. Nas raps about parties and can’t speak English properly. GUCCI!
As part of my new years resolution I’m not gonna tell you “kill yo self!” as I normally would, but I AM going to kindly ask you to remove yourself from this plane of existence! And I’m also not gonna say that your comment is arguably the dumbest statement since lil wayne’s declaration of him being the best rapped of…well anything, but I AM gonna say that you have been GROSSLY misinformed about what is concidered to be great when it comes to the art form we all love known as Hip-Hop. Oh and just to cover all the bases if what I’ve posted is too much to read (because I’m positive some of you will say such) then you’ve already lost. You’re welcome! 🙂
*rapper.
Gucci Mane Pwns Nas Sucks Gucci Man’s Dick:
Yeah he does it for the money. I bet he was humping Soulja boy too…
Pimp, your comment seems completely opposite of the truth maybe you just started listening to hiphop(nas) and rap(gucci mane) cause Nas is been about the street life to rapping about success and life as a whole and grew up and keeps it real vs. gucci talks bout bricks, partying, icy and so on but aint nothing changing in his music it’s dance party music even pop music but aint no progress as far as his music goes gucci aint trying to rap about hustling to get paid and get out he glorifies that mess with no real exit strategy.
ROFL, what?!…
the poetry that makes nas one of the best is still there, still mostrappers cant fuck with him
This song is from like 3 or 4 years ago (if not older than that) why is the nigga jus now releasin the full version?
NASTY NAS!!! EVEN THOUGH IT’S KINDA OLD
i think this is off of lost tapes 2 thats why hes talkin bout stillmatic n shtt
if you likd this
check out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxEtfs36qpg
lemme know what you think hiphopdx
Yeah he does it for the money. I bet he was humping Soulja boy too…
tbh Gucci is not even in the top 3 DoA but Nas is. So that ‘creative’ nickname of yours is false/untrue, stupid.
old track. Have it as “something foul.” Still fucking better than anybody right now. The LOST TAPES 2
MESSAGE TO BRIAN TATE: GO LISTEN TO 5% BY PREMIER, KRS AND GRAND PUPA; YOU NEED A LESSON IN REAL HIP HOP CAUSE YOU LACK THE TRUTH ESPECIALLY BY LOOKING AT THAT GOOFY ASS PHOTO. YOU MUST EAT SWINE MAKING A STATEMENT LIKE THAT!
HAHAHA
this is the Nas we need more of
This is the type of stuff that gets me pumped for Nas!!
This is what real hip hop sounds .. this is HOT!!!!
LOST TAPES PT. 2!!!
Nas still one coldest lyricist in the game ever…that’s my opinion. You have the right to yours.
Only Nasty can rip a track like this!!! I love being a true hip hop head when I hear songs like this!!!!
This ain’t shit! Somebody tell this old nigga his time is gone. He simply can’t compete with today’s new talent. Jay Electronia is Better!
Drake is Better! And yes, Rick Ross Is Better! Step it up old nigga
Funny you say Nas is old and then use Jay Electronica and Rick Ross who are both a few years younger than him and nearing 35. And Drake is nowhere near as good as Nas. Tell Drake he needs to step it up.
ignorant bitch
Do you have down syndrome?
funny all these people go out they way to say Nas is wack and use new rappers to compare him. Rick Ross is NOT lyrically….Drake is ONE album in. Look at the body of work before you compare. Internet gangstas are so wack. If he so wack why post…idiots
NAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nas is the reason alot of rapperes had to step they lyrical game up, now you got dudes sounding like robots wich is cool and i feel the new generation, but dont forget who set the bar… N A S are the letters that spell….NAS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nas is an amazing lyricist!!!
Nicely put
Nas is the illest!
legend.
This song is mad old. Still good music though.
NAS STILL REIGNS SUPREME. NO SNAPPIN, TAPPING, TWO STEP OR DIPPING INVOLVED. REPRESENT…
MY NICCA!
funny how you can tell the difference between the 25+ year olds and the 18 and younger dudes. gucci man is wack that mf”’er is buggin. nad talk real hip hop and is a story teller. put on poison and rewin, listen to gods son and nastradamas,nas is legendary top 5 all day young fellas, get off lil wayne and guccis and rick ross and them other wack ass rappers( wayne could be lyrical at times but no where compared to nas.) i know the older dudes readin this get it, and real hip hop is dying. this new shit i call it club hop cuz its just about beats and a good flow. but the words is whats important, not that fake ass i got a lambo(that u rented) fake ass fages. kill yoself
While I agree with your words, I wouldn’t categorize by age. I know most young people have no idea what real hip hop is but there are older guys in that boat too.
Im 24 and honestly the first rap CD I ever bought was Chronic 2001. What a choice huh? I woulda been in Junior High School. But I know real hip hop. I still throw on Illmatic. I have a huge collection of CDs and honestly year after year i find myself buying less albums each year. These new cats are exactly what you said “Club hop”. Im all about lyrics and Poison and Rewind are two great songs. Rewind i think is lyrically genius.
Just sayin there are young folks that know goood hip hop and there are old folks who don’t. Its all about having the right mindset.
i’m 19 but i know EXACTLY what you talking about, all my friends bump weezy and gucci and fucking Rick ross.. it’s mad annoying, i hardly listen to any new rappers only a few. I’ll just listen to the Big’s nas and wu tang now cause all this new music is just shit. When im drinking i might listen to it cause it is “Club hop” But few new rappers to look at are XV, J. Cole, and Evidence
i agree, NAs is the illest thats still doing it!! listen to the shit he saying…this dude is sick withit
hiphop aint dying listen to j.cole shit and you want that gangsta shit look up freddie gibbs these 2 boys are keeping hip hop alive
nasty as fuck
The best.
its just refreshing listening to songs like this
Dopeness.
audio drugs nice.
if you like this shit and you tired of bullshit hip pop you cant relate to? then check out

leave comments let me know what you think
I’m impressed. I haven’t been impressed with Nas since the “Ni99er” album.
Before that – the Stillmatic joint.
Nas needs new management or something because he is a living legend w/o the right marketing or business plan.
Kanye just has to produce an entire Nas album. Give him the right tracks to complement his lyrics. Something!

http://www.datpiff.com/The_Unmentionables_Dont_Mention_It.m178150.html
last hot album by nas-stillmatic in 2001,like jay said one hot album every ten year average. so in 2011 nas should drop a classic then again in 2021
Nas, nothing else needed
“Step out my throne….Please…
I am the truest…
name a rapper that i’ aint influenced”
this shit is old y is here again?
drake is wack, weezy over-rated, lil kim is old hag need to stop it she’s nice tho but dont bring that shit to this era. u cant recover shit. ross is a poor ass nigga he got good songs but albums wack, gucci is my nigga, dont hate waka if u didnt hear his album or dont understand him. all these old rappers respect im done listenning to them but still will bump some times. kanye think he’s a genius but he;s just acting damn white. look at runaway video. fuck otta here. jay should only make remix tired of his old ass. good thing he sold rocawear those shit was ugly frm the beginning made me think i dont want to hear swagger like us frm u. u got no swag. beyonce trying to get some swag for u nigga. drake nigga u wak talking shit weak and fishy punch lines. nigga i got all yall albums fuk outta here.
you’re dumb
yo nas dont roc filas i was like fuck outta here.
i think nas should have his next album produced entirely by dj premier, with an appearance from Az
Premo is dope but his music follows the same drum and scratch pattern. Nas should benefit from a bit more diversity ala “If I Ruled the World”, “Get Down”, “Street Dreams”, “The World is Yours”, “Can’t Forget About You”, etc…
Nas is not back. This is boring.
THIS IS LIKE 06….
Nas and Az need to do a solo album an ep or something this is a must for hip hop PLEASE…and understand Nas does not waste money on promotions he is very minimal with that he just know he has a loyal fan base and aint trying to sell crazy units, he said it himself gonna go gold with no promotion or platinum if he does and he is fine. Who you know from mid 90’s that is still relevant in the game now? who so respect the man he’s had the fame, made money and is doing the music he wanna do for himself, fans, and not the labels…GOOGlE open letter to LA Reid and understand how this man is on some G shit and aint trying to run with the crowd…the man can if he want to be on every radio station, commercials, endorsements but he aint about that life the man is a millionaire doing what he loves respect that.
gimme this 15 times on the next album or 10 times on the lost tapes vol.2 and we got a winner
I love Nas one of the best lyricist to ever touch a mic and is not going to be surpassed any time by few of the up and coming artists. Nas was the rare emcee that had flow, punchlines, complex rhyme schemes, and relevant and controversial content to his raps. Plus he might be the king at dropping knowledge on a track to the masses. But he is not a better rapper then Jay Z he’s just not. Jay would of killed this beat too and it reminds me a lot of the vibe of his Kingdom Come album.
kingdome come was bullshit nas better than jay bro nas isn’t shaking his ass with beyonce you feel me
I got mad love for Jay Z make no doubt!!!
He’s a genius.
But Nas will always be number one for me!!!
NO PLAY MAKE JACK LAME
“Got so much love i shot cupid in the heart”
Live HipHop Live!!!!
GODS SON 2011
5/5
Nas needs to do an album with Talib Kweli!
Produced by HiTek and DJ Premier!
nas is killing it.
Nas is an originator… Nice Song, LeEgGoO
Killed it! Nas the king-perfect song for winter time crusing-jumping out the SUV, pumping Nas, stiletto boots and shades on
love a girl who likes Nas!!
Thanks! Been a fan since Zebrahead Sdtk! and still waiting for that Nas/AZ LP–will it ever happen? thoughts?
I’d love to see it but I doubt it happening. Nas and AZ don’t seem to work together much these days. Sosa hinted at putting the mic down after Doe or Die 2 too. I hope he don’t. I do need me another Cormega album tho…
CO-SIGN on that NAS/AZ Album. i need that in my life along with a Blackstarr Album.
No one illa. Harder than termite teeth
Shit is tight nice lyric always on point
NASTY IS TRULY BACK
I love Nas
nas is like an older brother
yes man like older brother to man

THIS ISN’T NEW, REAL NAS FANS KNOW THIS, BUT IT’S FLY THO
