Nas dropped two classics in a row
And he didnt drop a third one on a row because of leaks. I Am...The Autobiography was supposed to be a double album (had a crazy concept too) and it was going to have the best songs from I Am, the best from Nastradamous and another great leaks (some ended on The Lost Tapes, another classic project)
Similar beats from same era that never made it on albums Since you cant get to I Am today
is Foul Breeze a IWW leftover?
I’ve heard a few albums and some songs here and there but I’ve never listened to him like that and I figured let’s get it going
I’ll be going in release order and then do his collab album at the end

why “nearly” every nas album , which one you skipping?
is Foul Breeze a IWW leftover?
Actually might’ve mixed that up I think that’s 2000s but not sure when. It was used on a Carmelo Anthony mixtape in like 2010 lol
Deja Vu however was before even Illmatic. Off his 93 demo

I don’t think he’s skipping any. He listed all of them.

He said earlier in the thread he’s skipping the firm album because it’s not on streaming

Deja Vu is not before Illmatic, that's a song that was scrapped from It Was Written

only The Firm cause they took it off streaming
maybe i’ll do it at the very end if i feel like it

This leaks are really great, crazy how songs this special were left from an album. Better than entire rappers careers

Eh you aren’t miss much with that one tbh.
Like you can listen to it, but it’s not really essential IMO. It should’ve been though, what a f***ing fumble.
excited for lost tapes! keep up the good work
Nastradaumus is lowkey kinda hard and didn’t deserve all the hate it got tbh
Life We Chose, Family, God Hate Us... it has gems
while we in between albums link me some of your favourite nas features from his first 2 eras and i’ll do quick reviews
easier to digest those
brr b already gave me the mobb deep one

Yea Deja Vu was one of the first songs he recorded for his next album after Illmatic before he went in a different direction
