Nas had such a mediocre career.

[uh-oh]

i thought this was common knowledge tho?

i guess since we're not arguing his career against jay z's tho you can get people to agree that he's done relatively nothing since illmatic as far as an album goes. but peoples hatred of jay z somehow gets them to argue for terrible albums in nas' favor

as a dude who gets stoned and makes mediocre beats if i was able to get anybody to rhyme on my shit nas is near the very top of that list.

he's a G. but word he's got the curse of making meh songs

Yeah, I've just re-listened to the whole catalog in a week, and that really brought home the truth.

If Nas had ever at any point in his career (even now) made an entire album where DJ Premier, Large Professor, Pete Rock and Alchemist handled all the production, it'd be a hands-down classic. (And no, that's not true for any rapper.)

i agree. premiers always talking about doing an album with him but its never gonna happen. but im pretty sure he's said nas is down they just need shit to line up

so basically if premier can't clear his schedule of making shitty beats for people like termanology to ruin, and nas can't decide to get in and make actual music it will never happen
