Flex broke it and dropped a bomb on it on hot 97 and proceeded to play that song no less than 10 or 20 times straight.

Nas won period. Their business ventures or other dealings outside of making a song has nothing to do with their lyricism. I get annoyed when people say Nas won the battle but Jay won the war. The whole battle and war was over WHO was the better rapper and Nas won, period. And if we mentioned anything out of lyrics let's talk about how Jay-Z was a Nas groupie, and obsessed with Nas that he rapped like him, sampled him, got rejected by him and because Jay-Z was hurt by this even screwed his baby mother to feel more like him. Now if that ain't a case of single white female syndrome then I don't know what is.

THANK YOU for putting together this deep dive

I've thought about this for a long time. I'd have to say that Nas is the greatest rapper of all time. His wordplay and his rhymes are extremely deep. "I begin like a violin and end like a leviathan". A leviathan is like a sea monster that overpowers and drags you under the water or is the Devil himself. From a lyrical point of view that makes you think, I'd say Nas is Number 1, Eminem is number 2, Mos Def is number 3, Q-Tip is number 4, Ace is number 5. Nas absolutely won this beef bro by a landslide.

He said Jay was calling him when he never gave him his number cuz he was sweating him and his style THEN he says Jay was getting chased to his building back then which is accurate. Jay grew up getting bullied until he started selling drugs later. Jay stans always claim that Takeover was more factual when all Jay did was give his opinion on Nas' career..."one hot album every ten years average?" WTF is that? It Was Written is universally considered a classic and it went 3X platinum. It was one of the 90s top albums. Plus, MC Serch is on record saying Nas got publishing money for Jay sampling his voice on Dead Presidents...so that was a lie too that Jay said. He lost...accept it cuz everyone else has, including Jay himself.

What makes Nas' story in this whole beef and the track Ether so legendary is that he doesn't just lyrically cook Hov, he effectively resurrected his own career simultaneously. He got so much flack for his last few albums like Nastradamus and I Am and then Ether hit along with Stillmatic and it was Nas' way of essentially booting everyone off his throne and reclaiming NYC.

That track that Nas is talking about that never played again at 40:00 was Don't You Know. The intro starts off "Fresh from London, Paris, Germany...it's Euro Jay!" And the other track which was a funk flex freestyle in 2002 on Hot 97. Jay says "While y'all was running your mouth complaining about Summer Jam, I was in flip-flops in the South of France, see how it flip-flops with the number one station for hip-hop and r&b? You thought Summer Jam was starring you, It was starring me, even in my absence, my presence is felt, I gotta tell you I'm the king, dog, if nothing else, I'm on another continent, you still ain't content, I'm in the Mediterranean, you still ain't vent, explain to me why I wanna be you again, you on the radio crying, I'm learning to swim" I still got those original songs, including Don't You Know which you said was hard to find but you found it on a mixtape. I got it with no DJ tags. It was leaked in 2002 as "the_blueprint_2_advance_cds" 1. Early This Morning 2. People Talking 3. Show You How 4. Don't You Know

I definitely agree with your war and battle commentary. I just hate that we compare Jay Z & Nas because to me they are completely different artists and people. Nas has a different love for music (due to his dad’s influence) and is held to a higher standard. When Nas puts out commercial songs, it’s the “Nas fell off”. But at the same time, Jay Z does several commercial songs and everyone loves it. Nas wasn’t trying to play the political games, hence why he hasn’t won a Grammy. Jay Z not getting signed to a label was his biggest blessing. He learned ownership, which made him the mogul he is today. Because of Jay-Z’s come-up story and current success, he gets more respect from all generations. When people talk about Jay Z, it’s beyond the music. Nas put out a “grown man” album (Life is Good) in 2012 and it was phenomenal, but rarely mentioned. But when Jay Z did it (4:44), everyone loved it. Nas is just ahead of his time and paved the way lyrically.

He has been the best in the game, at the pinnacle of the game, at the fore front of what’s hot in Urban culture all without riding trends. You can’t name another multi platinum artist like him. Some say his music is boring yet he’s still on of the greatest rap artist ever. He never had to compromise who he was/is, kiss ass or rub elbows with certain people to get on.
