Lost Tapes is GUARANTEED 5 MICS!!!!
« on: August 15, 2002, 02:45:41 PM »
Damn, this may be Nas' second best cd, and light years ahead of the very good Stillmatic..   Seriously, i a not kidding either.....i know most of the songs have been out for awhile, but he seems to have touched them up and even redid parts (Fetus)...If the Source rates that, this is 5 MICs for sure...

If you like Nasty Nas, you will LOVE this album, best album i have heard this year, even better than Scarface!  I know this isn't a westcoast topic, but people should not sleep.

Go to SOHH.com, there is a post titled "FOR those who haven't picked up "The Lost Tapes" - Here....

i am gonna post a review later tonight....

Tracklisting......

Fetus (dope idea, great song)

Doo Rags (one of the best songs i have ever heard from Nas)

My Way (Alchemist production...nice piano loop, although Nas sounds a little out of it on this one)

U Gotta Love It (from his Nastradamus period, better than most of the shit on that cd though by far)

No Idea’s Original

Everybody’s Crazy (Nasty Nas right here)

Blaze A 50 (classic song)

Purple (new song, INCREDIBLE, real hiphop- "THe whole city is mine/pretty as dawn/ don't like the way Diddy did Shyne)

Drunk By Myself (classic song)

Black Zombies (better than the other version)

Poppa Was Player (classic song, even if Nas does sing the hook)

I know this cd does not have the commercial exposure or appeal of Stillmatic, but i promise everyone will like this...ya, i am hyped on this one, but a new album hasn't made me feel this way all year....

Nas is a legend, he was my very first rap CD i bought.

It is a let down what has been doing with his career lately, refering to the move with Murder INC. Hopefully his style will not change.

THat's why this album i so dope.....no commercial songs at all, no AShanti, Rule, or Gotti.  I got no problem with Ja RUle, GOtti, or Ashanti, but i do if they are on songs with Nas.  See, i like corny shit sometimes, but i start hating it when it infringes on real music!

It comes out September 3rd?  Can't wait to buy it.... i wasn't really thinking of buying it cuz i thought i had all the tracks, but the new tracks are amazing and the order they are in make the old ones that much better.  Can't wait to get this album....

And ya, people do throw the terms classic and legend around way too much, but it is pretty hard too dispute that Nas has at least one classic, possibly two, maybe three in a lot of people's eyes.  
I haven't called an album a classic in a long time; i never thought Stillmatic was classic, or Blueprint....in my mind though, this album is that good, at least on my first 10 or 20 listens.   you can never really say an album is classic until it has been out and stood the test of time (which Stillmatic and Blueprint won't do).......this Lost Tapes will be more an underground classic, like Masta Ace's Disposable Arts.

I know, that is why the SOurce won't review it........besides, this is far from a greatest hits collection, it is more like songs that never made albums, yet somehow they amount to an album that is better than anything since IT was Written......i don't know how the hell this happened either, but i swear to god this album is INCREDIBLE....
