i don't know about Nas.

he comes off as that grimey guy from the streets of NY, when this song is all like NY is the best & cheerful.

i think the Nas feature could be a hit or miss, his name & legacy are all you guys are hyping. :-X
his lyrics...

what features does he have that are like "oh my fucking god! this guy is the GOAT!"

he makes sick albums & good songs for the albums, when it comes to features, he doesn't impress me.

you talkin nowadays or all time? cuz' the features he has in mobb deep's eye for an eye, kool g rap's fast life, main source's live at the barbeque, mc serch's back to the grill, az's mo murder mo homicide, large professor's one plus one, fat joe's john blaze... I could go on and on but especially on raekwon's verbal intercourse is like "oh my fucking god! this guy is the GOAT!", one of the greatest verses ever no fuckin doubt. plus, most recently he got some dope ass features too, here and there.


talkin' recently.

recently he got some dope shit, nothin legendary, nothin to claim GOAT status but his classic guest appearances already gave him that status and his albums obviously.

It's Chica-I-go for

Nas was never big on guest appearances anyways. But when he does do them, he brings the heat. I would rather have a smaller amount of guest appearances from someone like Nas then somebody doing 50-100 a year and half are watered down or sound more like a favor is being done.
