Damn, why they wanna stick me for my papers? Oh how hip hop has fallen. Off the artist's debut album "Ready to Die."
Vintage freestyle from back in the day here, on the corner boppin. This clip shows the big man's supreme talent as a hip hop artist.
Off the classic rap album Illmatic. This is Nas at the early peak of his game . Today's mainstream rap and hip hop may be a total joke but back in the early 90s, 1994 to be exact, rap was still a fresh concept in music. Nasir Jones was one of hip hop's finest performers before he sold out like most rap artists on his very next album.
