You dont recall a certain song called Sunshine with Foxy and Babyface, or I kmow what girls like with Diddy and Lil Kim? Guess not
But ya, i can finally admit jay is as good as NAs, both have had great careers and both are still dropping dope shit. However, Jay has always dropped commercial shit, INCLUDING HIS FIRST ALBUM (aint no nigga, hello!) while Nas did an entire album without commercial music (Illmatic)

yeah but thats the only album other than The Lost Tapes that nas ever put out without a commercial single
It was written - If I Ruled The World
I Am... - Hate Me Now, Nas Is Like
Nastradamus - Nastradamus, You Owe Me
Stillmatic - Got Urself A Gun
God's Son - Thugz Mansion Acoustic, Made You Look Remix

How is Nas Is Like commercial? I wouldn't consider Got Urself A Gun commercial either.

True... i feel that jigga although similar in ways is much more commercial than Nas...
...but then again who cares...he is rich ! and thats definatly why he got in the game...so even if he is a "sell-out" ...he is a rich sell-out that seems happy. Just cos he isnt my favourite rapper of all time doesnt mean id hate on him for doing well.

i dont know about where you were at but that was all over the airwaves here. something doesnt have to have an R&B hook to be commercial...nas knew it would be a hit so he put it out and im glad he did...thats one of my fav. songs.
On The Edge of Insanity:
Yeah but Nas Is Like was succesful because it was an amazing song, but because it had been created in order to appeal to the radio. I mean Ante Up by MOP was a massive track, but it wasn't commercial, it was a song about robbing people for god sake. There is a difference between a dope tracks that gets love and a commercial track.
