Excited for this shit. Hopefully it doesn't disappoint

Holy shit is this good so far

He actually chose good beats!

**Sliccat** · 07-12-2012, 09:06 AM

um... woa. The Loco-Motive large professor beat is the coolest thing I've heard in years.

**Dre** · 07-12-2012, 02:18 PM

I wish whatever he had done with Frank Ocean had ended up on here. No way it's not dope with the zones these two are in

**Sliccat** · 07-12-2012, 06:38 PM

Gotta let this sit for a while, but might rank #2 in his catalog. This just feels like he's finally comfortable in his own skin again.

Ya'll say this shit about every Nas album (it's funny cause it's true). But I'm optimistic ya'll are right, so I'll wait until its on Spotify. I'm no thief.

**Dre** · 07-12-2012, 08:41 PM

No, most people are disappointed when his album actually drops and can't stand the beats

I wouldn't say this was better than It Was Written though. That's still technically sharper

But I will say if IWW was Godfather 2 this is his 3. No garveyisms, no preaching, just Nasty Nas reflecting on his ride

**Luke** · 07-12-2012, 10:08 PM

I'm convinced. I'll give it a listen later tonight. Somebody hook a brother up with a link.

No links.

Kind of drags in the middle with lame attempts at radio rap. Features suck. I liked half of it, but it could've been edited down. Too long. I'm not hating I'll probably say the same thing about Dark Knight Rises next weekend.

Finally listened to this album.. I am impressed.. His good albums always piss me off because you realize how much he doesnt try on his garbage albums..

~Styles~ · 07-17-2012, 11:44 AM

I think its fair to say thats its his best since Stillmatic....and that ranks number 2, to me (Stillmatic that is)...

**Coatesvillain** · 07-17-2012, 04:27 PM

I think it's better than what he's released since It Was Written. I just don't know if this has legs because some of his past albums didn't.
