I'm On My East Coast Shit Pt.2; Nas

[Twentytwofifty]

It's because "Braveheart Party" was on the original version of Stillmatic but later on after it was released the song was removed from future pressings of the album.  Mary J didn't want it on the album anymore for some reason and I guess the record company let it happen.

Weaker Cuts
Braveheart Party

What ? What kinda version of Stillmatic do u posses?

I don't get this post.  Maybe something was really changed in the edit but what is wrong with putting "Braveheart Party" as one of the weaker songs?

Well, I have the retail version - copped it when it came out. And that song ain't on it.. Hell  - I've never heard of that track

loved the Hip Hop is Dead album but don't like "who killed it" either maybe he was trying to do some concept type rap but the voice was weird

You must have got a later version, I got it right away and it was on every copy, google reviews for the album, you'll see.

uh, more like 40's italian mobster. the whole concept was based around a humphery bogart type narration. i felt it for the beat and lyrics, even though the voice was kinda overdoin it

Illmatic is a 10 for me - There's no such thing as a perfect album but this, Chronic & Paid In Full are all 10's to me.

IWW is about an 8 for me.  I can look back at the singles for IIRTW and Street Dreams and appreciate them now for nostalgia, but at the time I honestly wasn't feeling them.  To this day, "Nas is Coming" is probably one of the most disappointing songs I'd ever heard.  You take 2 guys behind 2 of Hip Hops best albums and you get this shit?  Dre & Nas just didn't mesh well, the hook is TERRIBLE.  Even Nas & Dre sound awkward on the intro.    There are a few joints on here that I really like, those being: "The Message" "Watch Dem Niggas", "Take It In Blood", "Affirmative Action", "Black Girl Lost"

I am would be like a 7

Nastradamus like a 6

Stillmatic 9

Gods son - 8

Streets disciple - 8.5

HHID - 8

Yeah I gots to roll with Streets Disciple. Dope shit, very innovative. Also now looking back I appreciate I Am alot more now. Oh and Luna what did you think of The Lost Tapes?

[Boba Fettucini]

I really liked Message to the Feds off Streets Disciple. It was so rebellious and had that slow military drum roll, very 1970's Oaklandish
