It ain’t that THE TRUTH.....The Stars ✨ were definitely a lined........What was awesome about the 90’s if there were 20-30 rappers that were out in they were all NICE ON THE MIC 🎙....Even the Pop Rappers or Wack weren’t as Bad ANY OF THE SHIT THAT PLAYS TODAY! The Street Rules was still being applied in the Board Room with guys like Nas, Wu, Mobb, Biggie, PAC, Etc. A lot of these guys NEVER went NWO Corporate, Jay Z and Diddy did.....The Hip Hops Police 🚔 wet dream was a rapper like Tekashi 69.....Too think 🤔 guys like this and my Pops showed me to become a Man(fortunately I was Blessed 😇🙏) with Good Pops and Great Grandfather......And Street Smart Friends that saw a nerdy kid and put me on this REAL HIP HOP Music 🎶.......Miss these days just like you my Friend.....Todays HIP HOP IS DISAPPOINTING N CORPORATE.......Smh 🤦‍♂️ STRAIGHT 💩💩💩💩🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭 My Opinion..... The 1990’s NO OTHER TIME LIKE IT BEFORE OR AFTER...... Blessings to You 😇🙏 n Yours Big Up to Nasir Nas Jones!!!!

@@lazarorodriguez5161The best thing about the 90s is all the artist had their only unique style and beats. Today everybody sounds the same and uses the same producer. I remember the first time hearing Johnny Blaze with Nas, Big Pun, and Jadakiss on the same track. You don't get that type of collab with the record labels and artist egos these days.

One of the best emcees ever 💯 Nas is a true lyricist.

Man Nas has really kept his words to this day and hasn’t changed anything neither what he stands for nor his his looks whilst others are going from low hair cuts to dreads and vice verse yet people can open their eyes wide to recognize such a great personality

The 90s

Rap legends are a dime a dozen. I can literally rattle off 50 without any effort. But some of these guys touch a nerve. Nas is one of those.

I actually was a kid when this interview was on Rap City and was so mad I missed I actually became a bigger fan. He was this enigma in rap that was the best rapper but radio determined in middle school who the best was. So Nas was left out of the Pac, Biggie, Tribe, Wu and Fugees debates. Once It Was Written dropped it was over.
