Dude had every big name producer in NY at the time giving him beats. Can you imagine the beats he turned down?

Nas never stopped having access to good instrumentals, he just stopped picking good shit. Songs like Dr. Knockboot and Big Girl is 100% Nas fault. Also, anything Nas tried to sing on was cringeworthy. Same goes for Jay but his catalog is so enormous and praised that those songs fall by the wayside.
