Play on the elections and political relevance of this year by two pretentious rappers; one a drug dealer, the other an attention whore.

Its good marketing.

That ” Untitled ” shit was sooo fuckin wack.. i dont know why everybody is.. acting like that was a classic or worth listening too…

tha production was terrible…

Any album dropped this year (so far) >>>>> Nas ‘Untitled’

August 19th, 2008 at 10:39 pm
I mean come on.. Men lie, numbers dont.. look how many people went out and bought that album.. this aint about numbers but honestly.. if his album was half way decent he woulda at least sold.. 200,000 copies by now… But it didnt..

Also, Killer Mike hit tha nail right on tha head about him.. making everyone think he’s going to name his album that without actually following thru on it.. Drop yo shit anyway.. hell drop it on Koch if you have to.. Dont make the public think you delivering a product and have the higher ups.. Modify your shit..
Nick Says:

you joking homie, got to be. Even if your claim of the project lacking promotion, the content over shadowed that anyway.

Not saying the album is a classic but homie had plenty of quotables on that album. I hope your not listening to Nas expecting a gucci mane or boosie type of album.

Homie said

“AMERICAN BLACKS THE TEENAGERS OF THIS WORLD”…”NIGGAZ NEVER REALLY SEEN PAPER IN THIS WORLD”…..

“JUST WHEN NIGGAZ BOUT 2 SEE THEY CUT..GLOBAL WARMING BOUT 2 BURN US UP….”

“Were Not Alone”

[Nas]
Reginald Lewis, the black billionaire
Before Oprah, Bob Johnson, how’d he disappear?
Conspiracy theories, UFOs in the air
I’ve seen it with my own two eyes, and I swear
Like Warren Buffet, real money I’m just trying to touch it
The diamond encrusted shit, live illustrious
‘Cause we was deprived of it, suffered
Now we pop to prove anything’s possible
My pimp strut was invented when they whipped us
Now we diddy bop just to show you that our strength’s up
Just when niggas ’bout to see they cut
Global warming about to burn us up
Niggas never really seen paper in this world
American Black’s the teenager of this world
Give us 20 more years to grow up, already geniuses
What I mean is this
I used to worship a certain Queens police murderer
‘Til I read the words of Ivan Van Sertima
He inserted something in me that made me feel worthier
Now I spit revolution, I’m his hood interpreter

It’s Quotables all throughout the album.
Nick Says:
August 19th, 2008 at 10:47 pm
Homie he broke it down for you on “Hero”

(Verse 3)
This universal apartheid
I’m hog-tied, the corporate side
Blocking y’all from going to stores and buying it
First L.A. and Doug Morris was riding wit it
But Newsweek article startled big wigs
They said, Nas, why is he trying it?
My lawyers only see the Billboard charts as winning
Forgetting - Nas the only true rebel since the beginning
Still in musical prison, in jail for the flow
Try telling Bob Dylan, Bruce, or Billy Joel
They can’t sing what’s in their soul
So untitled it is
I never change nothin’
But people remember this
If Nas can’t say it, think about these talented kids
With new ideas being told what they can and can’t spit
I can’t sit and watch it
So, sh! t, I’ma drop it
Like it or not
You ain’t gotta cop it
I’m a hustler in the studio
Cups of Don Julio
No matter what the CD called
I’m unbeatable, y’all

Okay, that’s going wayyy left their… Boosie or Gucci Mane.. We talking about substance here. Dont throw the most unrelevant folks in tha game into this Convo mix..

and also….

him quote on quote.. ” explaining ” why he couldnt use the title to me.. is just a bitchmde move. He’s a big enough artist to get off that Slave Ship and release his shit tha right way.. but that just goes to show the kind of artist that he really is…

I’m sorry.. but those 2 posts or verses you posted up.. doesnt do that album any justice when he sat out to really go in.. on the Word ” Nigger.”

That’s my whole thing that album was supposed to be about taking power out of that word.. Breaking down the barriers..

He did neither one on those verses you posted or on the rest of his entire album.

1st of all, whoever said Nas album was wack must be on crack. If your comment was about him not addressing the word nigger, you must haven’t heard the album. People kill me with their comments on stuff they haven’t even listened to. I’ll let you know that he breaks down the history of the word on the song (ya’ll my niggas). A true lyricist makes you rewind. Nas f_cks peoples heads up on this one. Like he said (he’s over their heads like a bolemic on a see-saw) hahaha THE BEST PERIOD!!!

Anons,

I can dig it, but personally unless I’m in a super positive mood I’d rather hear dudes stick to what they’re good at! If you’re not intellectual jus be you… Stick to the trap sh!t its more believable. IDK… it is what it is, basically I guess if you do it do it right don’t jus say some sh!t to SOUND political… thinkin bout the hook and smh

I actually shocked at how dope this came out. Beat is hard and Jezzy has really been stepin it up lately. I think he even got Nas on this one (Yes blasphemy).

I don’t think I’ve gone a week without listening to Jeezy’s verse on the can’t tell me nothing remix. In a year of great remixes that may be my absolute favorite of the last year or so.

Song was tight…jeezy been stepped his rap game up I really been fuckin wit him for a min…the pimp c line tho, i didnt take sides or nutin when all that popped off but for jeezy to say he forgive him that makes it seem like Pimp was wrong…and on Nas wit da 2 albums in, the realest nigga on da label, that shit is tight but i just wonder how other rappers feel when niggas say shit like dat on da same song lol… I do think Nas meant in terms of his albums being controversial speakin his mind type shit, not on the “imma real nigga” type shit plies be on…. did nas flow on this make anybody else wanna go listen to “big things” of I AM?? He murdered that bitch!!

In 1992, Forbes magazine listed Lewis among the 400 richest Americans with a net worth estimated at $400 million. He also was the first African American to build a billion dollar company.

He died, aged 50, from brain cancer wikpedia

“[Nas]
Reginald Lewis, the black billionaire
Before Oprah, Bob Johnson, how’d he disappear?
Conspiracy theories, UFOs in the air”

By the way Wikipedia is not a reliable source!

^^^Nas said how they disappear- not how he disappear? But here is a paragraph from “Conspiracy Theorists Appeal to History”- Others considered conspiracy victims are reggae singer Bob Marley, mega-businessman Reginald Lewis, black author Henry Dumas and Harold Washington, the late mayor of Chicago. Often blacks jump immediately to a conspiracy theory without even a scintilla of evidence. Those of us not in the conspiracy camp will continue to scoff at the claims. But black conspiracy theorists no doubt believe the adage spoken by a man at UMBC: “There’s more than one way to get people off this earth, and it doesn’t have to be through the barrel of a rifle.”
Nas is not saying this is fact - he is exploring the possibilty that some black, rich, influential people could have been eliminated by the government? So don’t be quick to call some a clown!
Ms. Pam Says:
August 20th, 2008 at 9:17 pm
@ Cartheif Jones- you seem to have a passion for discrediting Nas! Did he personally do something to you?
Carthief Jones Says:
August 20th, 2008 at 10:13 pm
Ms. Pam if Im not mistaken Bob Johnson and Oprah are still both alive and well, so first off that line Nas said dosent even make any sense. Exactly who dissappeared and when? Im not saying conpiracy theorist and theories dont exist I mean look AT Malcolm X killing and the other civil rights leaders assassinatd in the 60s, COINTELPRO, the bible itslef and the slave trade, AIDS cases in the 60s etc etc its just that what he said dosent make any sense. Im not out to discredit him. Its just funy how what he said made no sense at all and isnt supported by any type of logical backing, but Nas stans are calling that verse a Hip Hop quotable. “What you trying to kick knowledge?” LMAO!!!
2cents Says:
August 20th, 2008 at 11:36 pm

lol, am I trippin or is the one missin Reginald Lewis!?

One of us needs to get they comprehesion game up, I’m assuming its you!!!

You afraid of someone kickin knowledge? Jigga claims he’s givin you jewels!!! He sold crack so you wouldn’t have to…lmao! NOW THATS FUNNY!!!
Carthief Jones Says:
August 21st, 2008 at 12:01 am
Comprehenmsin OFF. But Neither one of them is missing is what the ENTIRE point is. Reggie Lewis died from brain cancer and Oprah and Johnson are still alive. So WTF is HE sayng? Its a frivolous and corny statement that cant be backed logically or supported with ANY REAL FACTS. Dude is a dweeb. LAMO @ him at FOX protesting racism for publicity for that CD release too. Ms Pam is a sucker too. Do you even know the definition of conspiracy? But Of course the govt has been and still invlved in systematically destroying people and denying rights. Many of the campaigns are open documents for the public to view. GTFOH
2cents Says:
August 21st, 2008 at 2:19 am
I’m not the one to say whether what he said was true or not!
I can speculate he was throwing something outthere for folks to research and potentially like you previous statement said if you can classify bob marley as a conspiracy then maybe you can apply the same thought to Mr. Lewis I mean if this dude was the 1st billionaire why don’t we hear much about him but hear about martins march all day?

As a country we celebrate those who make vast amounts of money so why as a black man was this erased from history to a point while mr. non violence has been celebrated almost since he came to fame!

personally I’m bout to do some homework on the man, I hope everyone else does too!!!

I can address Carthief Jones. Even though this is a post about a Jeezy song, l’ll go in on the Nas subject. #1 Nas said qoute: Reginald Lewis black billionaire before Oprah & Bob Johnson. He didn’t say anything about Oprah or Bob Johnson being missing LOL.He basically mentioned the latter because to the average person Bob Johnson was the 1st black billionaire (false). He’s high-lighting some non-well known facts. Letting us know that blacks have been getting money. I’d personally like to see real money powerful blacks stand for something. Instead, a lot of them shy away from any type of contraversy cause they’re afraid for their financial status. If anyone would like to find out about Reginald Lewis, his museum is located in my city -Downtown Baltimore. PEACE!!!

I’m disgusted. At Hip-Hop and its audience.
