A lot of great material ... I hope Nas comes back with a vengeance on his next album ... was dissapointed in "Untitled" ... needs to pick better beats

I'm really feeling the Last Real Nigga leak... I'll put up a review of some of the songs later.

Wasn't feeling the four volume guest appearances that much.   Checked out one of the other leaks, the album that starts with "Good Morning", it wasn't close to the level of Last Real Nigga.  But I will definitely check out some of these other leaks to see if there are any other hidden gems.

Listening to the "Soundtrack to the Streets" bootleg now.  Sounds pretty dope so far.   Don't know how anyone can listen to all these unreleased Nas cuts and not recognize that he's the second greatest rapper ever (next to 2pac).  Most these songs he's doing all his own chorus' and verses.  He doesn't need any guest appearances.  Dude can just take a regular beat and write epics across it

explain.  What more could Pac have done? 

See the different is Nas is a rapper but he also has a personal life.   Pac gave his whole life, 100% to his art.

Nas is a better rapper than Pac no doubt about it ... Pac is the better all around artist ... if it wasn't for his average ear for beats at times , Nas would be the GOAT by a good margin

It is what it is. Nas is better in my opinion. I'm a huge Pac fan, but Nas always been #1 IMO.

Shock G explains why Pac was the greatest rapper.  Shock G says that Biggie may have had the best flow.  And that Shock said Shock rapped from the nasal.  That Nas raps from the throat, that's why Nas has the ill blunted sound.  But Pac was the greatest because Pac rapped from his gut, from the heart, with his whole body.  Not a lot of rappers could do that.


but Okka.. I've seen your posts and you have great taste in music, and I definitely don't have any problem with someone saying Nas is the greatest, because Nas is my second favorite all time, like I said above.

Stop being so dramatic all the time Brian and think things out. This is why you're a deadbeat father who no one of any worth respects.

Lost Albums Volume 1:  Last Real Nigga:  Quick Review of the Album:

Rating: 4 out of 5 Mics. Nearly equal to Lost Tapes, but not to the level of his better studio albums such as Illmatic, Stillmatic and God's Son.

Standout Cuts:

"The World"- This joint is backed by Kanye's production, and was better than most joints that made the NIGGER album. I have to wonder if maybe it was an issue of sample clearance or something of that nature. Nas tells the story of a romance he had with a married woman, and how it defined him and his values.. "(her son) even looked like me/ except a little darker/ she called him blackee/ cause his skin was jet black/ I don't respect that".

"Amongst Kings"- Epic Nas track right here. I would compare it to, "If Heaven Was a Mile Away" off of the God's Son album. This song evokes the same mood of mysticism.

"Film"- This track subjects the listener to an ethered fog, as Nas raps stories of ups and downs, changes, and coming of age... over whiny guitar chords that put stress on the heart and emotions. "If I could press pause/ or fast forward past the hardness..."

"Second Coming"- This one has Nas given vivid life to everyday ghetto life. Telling stories of life's that would otherwise go un-noticed, but are complex and intricate in their own right. Nas does all this with his signature style that appears to come natural and easy to him.


...those are some of the standout cuts, but nearly every track is listenable and thought-provoking. Nas fans will not be disappointed.

It's a mixtape/compilation put together by some dude though. You really can't compare it to retail albums.
