Of late, his beat selection has been very poor.
He needs to get DJ Premier/Pete Rock/Large Professor back into the mix.

One thing Nas had back in the day was great producers at his disposal which is the difference from what I hear

i think it wasnt tooo bad, hes just tryna broaden his appeal - he has to think of his tax troubles lol.


the chorus and production may be a bit too mainstreamy but the verses aint bad.
also, every feature he been on recently he been spitting nice verses so i dont think he lost.

his last album distant relatives actually had some of the best production of the year it was released in.

Only listened to the tracks The Bottle and The Revolution Will Not Be Televised.

I also listened to his album I'm New Here (and of course the Jamie XX collab that followed).

Amazing and inspiring stuff, we're blessed to be able to hear words from such an experienced man. Rest in peace.
RIP to Guru who died 2 years ago today, he will not be forgotten
