It's been almost two months & let's be honest, it's died down.

Of course most of your are going to JUMP at what I'm about to say just to support the album but HONESTLY, how many of you are still bumping more than one or two songs off this album on a regular basis?

Classic album, I think not.

I honestly still have it in rotation, infact I got the album in my car still. I can listen to the album all the way through and I actually dig the album more now, the few songs I didn't like at first grew on me. Iv put many of my hoMies (even family) up on it, and everyone enjoys the album, whether were blazing to it or just playing video games.  

A majority of the songs are 5/5

well I tend to not bump albums for more than a couple weeks, that way I can move on to more music and keep up with what's good. But most of the songs are in rotation on my ipod. Classic no, but a great album.

so you weren't feeling this album Cham?

It had some nice cuts off of it. But once people started deeming it classic after one bump, I was like "GTFO" lol.

Solid album, no doubt. But like I said, nothing that people would be bumping a few months after it's release.

& if you still are...God bless.

It didn't have the right energy for me..  I dunno, didn't feel it.

I liked it. Definitely a solid album. Better than hip hop is dead but not as great as Untitled. However I did feel that it was more of a Damien Marley album than a Nas album.

That must be it for me.

as much as i think nas can spit,i think equals put to much on his intelligence if you really listen to some of his rhymes he's speaking bullshit that don't even make sense, but since it sounds good haha, at times he reminds me of the older cats at the corner store who spit that pseudo knowledge to you,it starts off well but then they say shit and you be saying to yourself this muthafucca is out of his mind hahaha, "listen my brother" haha yell

Nas makes music more intelligent than he is. His whole style is based around bringing up intelligent topics but not really explaining them thoroughly and letting the listener come to their own conclusions. He's slick with the wordplay But if you listen to him in interviews actually talking he comes across like your generic radio rapper. It's all good though, his music speaks for itself.

"Untitled" was so fucking ill.
