"Nas And Damian Marley - Distant Relatives" Discussion Thread

[the ghost]

I am going to wait till the 18th.  What I've heard so far sounds good. 

[Triple OG Rapsodie]

i'll bring this thread back up in a month & i want you guys to honestly tell me if you're still listening to this.

Be honest, are you still listening to Pig Face Weapon Waist?

i haven't even heard that entire EP.

you guys need a life; just because Nas is the Golden Boy & can't go wrong & they put together an album with a different sound, doesn't make it automatic sex on a plate.

i'm not saying you can't like it, i'm not trying to call it trash either, but i'll be impressed if you guys are still bumping it by the end of the month & haven't moved on to something else.

Elano, son. you've been banned seventeen times for having a retarded opinion on things & this website is your morning, afternoon & night; it's time to just admit that your nickname of "fail" is more than just a joke, it's a true reality of your life.

close minded ass people on this board; a brotha can't even express his opinion; smh.

  how is crooked i in your top 10 and you haven't even listened to his debut months after it was released?

[Lunatic]

This album is pretty unbelievable. Hearing Nas spit on better production is dope 

Thank God Damian Marley handled the production (or picked the producers) lol..Nas fits this shit so well and Damian Marley is so dope.

Loving this record after two listens

it just shows how wack some rappers are; that i can't even get around to bumping people in my top 10.

the fact you even brought it up is silly though, speak on this album, not you & the rest of the boards obsession with my favorite artists.

EDIT: i just pondered it & actually what you just said proves my point; you said "you have him as a top 10 rapper & you didn't listen to the whole thing?" & no; what i heard wasn't that good, so i just never bothered to listen to it all.

i'm not going to force it just because he's one of my favorites & try to support music that is just whatever; COUGH nas COUGH.

[Lunatic]

QT, who cares? I don't even like reggae but Damian Marley makes good music, and his style meshes very well with Nas', making an entire record by the 2 of them a great idea and great music is the result.

[Action!]

1.  Dope album but folks calling it a classic should get their ears checked

2.  Nas's flow is tiresome

3.  it's not original as in brand new creation of music.  That's to say, it's not genre bending as fans are proposing. they obviously have not listened to a lot of music

Conclusion: dope album, will get spinned for a minute, fade into my catalogue, and will pop up again in a few months

[redspyda]

Personally I think it is a classic album.. great production lyrics are on point.. The chemistry is good..

I'm proud of you Cham. I didn't think you had it in you to admit that was a weak effort from Crooked. Props to you. But I still can't believe you didn't listen to the whole Ep, its only 6 tracks and 1 we've heard before. To tell the truth I haven't listened to this Nas album yet so I don't know how good it will be. But every track I've heard so far sounded dope. Looking forward to it.

If you haven't heard "Welcome To Jamrock" you should go give it some spins, real solid album from Damian I reckon. Ima download this album later, cant be fucked right now lol, I'm expecting something special though

[Nutty]

Album's solid, though not quite what I expected. Favourite track so far has to be Land of Promise.

this is kinda what im getting at, people who dont even like reggae like damian marley, when he is a really poor reggae artist. it kinda makes you question the reasons they like him. if he had any other surname no-one would even care. then again if you like damian marely maybe you DO like reggae but just havent had any exposure to the good stuff. this is a common opinion across many genres. e.g ever hear someone say the dont like hip-hop but they like one really obvious mainstream artist who isnt that good? its exactly the same.

^ I know I'm an example of what u mean, but it's definitely not because of his sur-name. There are a few Marley sibling singers and Damian is the ONLY one I actually listen too.
