If I were Nas................................. I would take that double standard as a complement. People seem to want the truth from Nas & expect everyone else to lie as if it were a given. It's weird.

NaS is a prophet...

I could've lived without the Escobar phase... He had no reason to conform to what the industry was doin, he's always talked about priding himself on sometimes having to stand alone with his thoughts, but yet in that phase he compromised EVERYthing he stands for, for the sake of popularity... Not gonna excuse that, not from an artist of his calibur, he's one of the VERY few respected voices in this genre, that can speak on ANY subject, and change the way others view things...

It was coo when he was helping out his GARBAGE running mate AZ, but he never should've took on that persona to form an album around...

The BEST songs of his from that period are "If I Ruled The World" & "Street Dreams Remix" thats not by accident...

He's not talkin that knockoff mafioso rap, he's speakin the REAL...

The very FEW bright spots on that album don't even play into that corny persona...

& If that persona was a s good as YOU guys think, why did he put that corny +!+@ to bed??

He knew that +!+@ wasn't him, and it hindered his progress, threw fans for a loop...

God Son IMO is one of Nas' worst albums production wise. You can argue It Was Written was as good as Illmatic. God Son doesn't even belong in the discussion. To claim God's Son as one of Nas' best albums would be a disservice to the brilliant career Nas has had.;
