K'Naan drops a new video with Nasty NaS

[Lillaahiya]

Just something about homeboy at 1:02. That glare.

W/e song though.

[nassir71]

i just can't take k'naan seriously as a real artist, he just seems so fake and untalented. i can see why white people like him though coz he east african and got a diff attire an all.

pretty much this.

Never thought Somali farax would be rapping side by side with one of the greatest rappers of all time if not the greatest of all time. Cajjib

i wouldn't call Nas the g.o.a.t, his good to bad album ratio is like 2:10 or something...no consistency. nothing tops Illmatic though .

[AhlulbaytSoldier]

K'Naan the only talented somali rapper

It Was Written was a classic

Stillmatic was a classic

the joint with Damian Marley was a classic

Nas got 4 classics right there son

the thing i hate is he can't reinvent himself

It Was Written was my fav. Nas has always been my favourite, but I don't think he's the best.

This song though? Meh. Started out nicely, but K'Naan's first verse was pretty weak. Then it changed to some sesame street tune, as usual.

The hook ruins the song and he's being way too commercialized

there's still a shitload of crap in his discog which would disqualify him like Nastradamus.

[FAH1223]

Nastradamus isn't even a bad album, neither is I Am. But yeah that was the low point of his career by far

You didn't like Street's Disciple? or Hip Hop is Dead?

No, not a fan of either.

I found most of his stuff post 96 to be repetitive and without substance. But his style, lyricism, rhyme scheme, etc? Still one of the best.


*goes off to relisten to every Nas song*

I think the reason why his material post 96 lacked substance was because he ditched everything that made him great(his style, lyricism, rhyme scheme, etc )...for the most part.

[Alphanumeric]

Hmm, when i referred to substance, I referred to his stories, material, attitude. I haven't listened to him as much as I used to, in years. Still going through some songs.
