Quote from: rapsodie sees the bitch in you on May 16, 2010, 02:29:53 PMMy problem with I Am is that it contains some of the worst songs Nas has made. The only difference between it and Nastradamus are the contributions Primo made. I think people overrate the album solely based off of Nas is Like, and to a lesser extent NY State of Mind part 2, while ignoring the horrible joints on there. Which songs are you refeering to? To my recollection, K-I-S-S-I-N-G was the only weak song on there.

i can see people not liking kissing and dr.knockboot but the other three are far from horrible.
I see nothing wrong with those tracks,I dont see whats wrong with them.Their not great or anything,but their fine album cuts.To call them horrible is a gross exxageration,your sounding like enyce when ever a song comes out he doesnt like calling it the worst song ever lol.

Some of the songs are way too long. I thought one song was the last on the album cuz it was so long and I still had like 4 joints to go after it.Knaan was the standout on all the tracks he was on.Album did start out strong, about just after the half way mark I felt like fast forwarding tracks.Some god-aweful hooks on here, even for Reggae.Lil Wayne feature was funny, I tryed to find a reason but I couldn't hate on him, held it down on a type of beat I've never seen him do before...Nas lyrics were dope, flow was str8, should release the pellas and have fans make their own remix projects...Beats were average, nothing pushing the limits of a true Hip-Hop/Reggae fusion though..Felt like Damian was just adding background vocals for Nas, didn't really stand out to me.. (Note: I don't listen to Reggae)I do like the concept and ideas on this album, just weren't able to pull it off imo, to make it above standards.I won't be listening to this after a week.dude you are on point here. a lot of ppl who dont listen to reggae (but like to pretend that they have knowledge) are saying this album is great and i think its based on pure novelty of nas doing a record with a reggae artist. this album is very poor and i know in a month or two no-one is going to care. this happens with every nas album, hell even on 'untitled' i was super hyped for like a week and then i never listened to it again. so now we've come to the root of your thoughts, you think Nas is wack, so why are you wasting your time listening to this album to begin with?why would i be super hyped for an album from someone i think is wack? i never said that. infact if u read what i said you would see that i like some of nas albums, im just able to jump off his dick for a second and admit half his albums suck. obviously you need radio friendly song on an album to keep your attentionsadsee now youre just saying words. this post makes no sense at all. "obviously" i need a radio friendly song like 'hero' to enjoy an album.... oh wait....you get hyped for Nas albums because you think it's the cool thing to do, but your brain is clearly catered to that of rap albums made by the likes of Baby and Wacka Flocka, so when you finally hear the Nas album you are disappointed
