Ras Kass - Nature Of The Threat (some heavy shit)
« on: February 27, 2004, 03:12:03 AM »
im not gonna comment on the racist aspect of this track and start a whole racism discussion. but what struck me most about this song is the level of knowledge that ras has. the stuff he mentions about indian culture atleast is very accurate so he must have actually studied up on this shit. i can believe i hadnt heard this track until 2day



peace

PS: i jus noticed i became a muthaphukin don....weeeeeee ;D

The entire song is based on the book "The Isis Papers" by Frances Cress Welsing, been looking for it for a while.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

Good lookin.  I havent bumped that album in a long time.  Spent too much time on Miami Life (love that song) which is probably why I slept on a few others.  I'll check it when I get home.  Thanks.

hahaha.. I'm knowing.. but damn Nima, theres just too much shit to listen to.  I tend to get stuck on shit that I like alot and end up putting them on repeat.  I have to constantly remind myself to back track and check shit that I've missed.    :D

marinatin' was the hottest track on that album.  bc powdah.

fuck it.  i just listened to "nature" again. and although "interview" flows better (and is a better concept, and a much better beat) i'm having a hard time making the argument that it's more significant than "nature".  a better song, but not more significant.

-I can't beleive someone has Soul On Ice and doesn't know "Nature Of The Threat", that's just rediculous.

-LOL @ 110% accurate.

-I'd say that "Marinatin'" and "Miami Life" are probably the two worst songs on the album.

CalebOhio: I think i can speak for many others when i say my favorite rap artists are white but i still want black artists to be dope. they are chosing not to be. that wouldn't be a likely believe held in a white supremacist group. I want Nas to deliver evertime but he doesn't every time Sage does. so Sage gets my $15 regardless or his status. fuck your status perception and labels you use.
