:mjoh2:

Nas is one my favourites to ever hold a mic so I can never give a top 5 off the top of my head. s---, I probably couldn't do a top 5 since there will be so many songs left out

That's the fun of it man, brutal as f---

Alright, here goes. List is in no particular order. In order to make it unique, I'm going to leave off the usual suspects that's placed in every Nas list. It's not that I don't consider them top 5, I do, it's just a little boring when you see top 5's loaded with Ether, NY State of Mind, If I Ruled The World etc.

1) Rule
2) Mastermind
3) Blunt Ashes
4) Favour For A Favour
5) Just A Moment (My first Nas song I heard when I got into Hip-Hop properly in 2004)

I knew you could do it my n-----, it doesn't feel good but you did it lmao

 

Apr 6, 2015

s--- is incredibly hard

Even now I'm thinking "Wait, I could've replaced that song with this song. That song isn't on the same level as this song. Why the f--- didn't I include this song?"

This is why I hardly do a 'name your top 5' whatever list

 

Apr 6, 2015

The entertainment is just in seeing people crumble rather than the list lmao
