Music Kendrick Lamar

I think every solo project of Nas between Illmatic and the projects he's done with Hitboy (I'll make an exception for The Lost Tapes), has been held back to some extent by inconsistent production quality. He's such an alien on the mic that at times you don't notice, but as hard as it is to believe, he'd have more undeniable classics under his belt with the right production.

Again, if he's not dissing Jay-Z, I just cannot find a fit for that beat anywhere else on any project of his.

Catchy though, that bass.

I agree with most of that. I do think people sometimes lean into that a bit too much though. There’s not a single track on I am and Stillmatic, for example, where I felt the production was underwhelming. I sometimes feel Nas was so fecking great a lyricist and a storyteller that people didn’t give the beats/production the attention/respect they deserved.

I Am: you're right, I think the flow of the album was a bit rushed because of the leaks. Merge the best of I Am with Lost Tapes 1 and it's an undeniable classic

Stillmatic: easy: Rule and My Country

But those with The Lost Tapes are his best albums in that period.

None of what I said is subjective. Especially the production part. It’s a really simple beat with a sample from a Monk Higgins track just repeated over it for the duration. The processing on the vocal is almost none existent. Genuinely thought it was done in an amateur fashion on purpose when it first released just because it was done quickly as a Drake diss but it appears maybe not?

Don’t make me go through the crappy lyrics that are really easy to write for such an unimaginative flow.

Buncha swifty types in here. Whether you like it or not is the only subjective thing here. I don’t because I like good music.

Don’t go there.
