He's got atleast a couple each album.

I wouldn't call "Nas Is Like" or "Made You Look (Remix)" commercial at all, and "Hate Me Now", "Thugz Mansion (Acoustic)" & "Got Urself..." aren't in my eye but are in a grey area...maybe.

That's kinda the point about releasing singles.. they're supposed to sell the album.
You don't put out a filler track as single..

nas is like, as waitin for the dj said, was made for the radio...thats why it is commercial...as i said earlier it doesnt need an R&B hook to be commercial. made you look wasnt commercial but the remix was...they made a remix strictly for sales...thats why they put out a video for the remix. hate me now was commercial because that was right at the time where puff daddy was getting to be really really big and they also knew the video would stir up some controversy. thugz mansion is in the grey area i would say...and yeah so is got urself a gun...i could put those in the grey area
On The Edge of Insanity:
--- Quote from: Waitin For The DJ on November 21, 2003, 12:15:50 PM ---Yeah but Nas Is Like was succesful because it was an amazing song, not 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.

Thats what I meant to say. Nas Is Like wasn't created for the radio it was created to be a dope track, so I'm still actually disagreeing with you.
And Jome, there is a difference between the best songs on the album, and what is released as singles. I mean, I don't think anyone would say that Izzo was one of the best two or three tracks on The Blueprint, yet that was released as a single.
