Why is it NOT up for discussion, because you don't wanna hear it?? If the market is in the club, you NEED to make club songs to survive in the market. There is no other major market in hip-hop right now besides the club scene or the crossover scene. No !%%%. That's a no brainer. What are YOU talking about? You're not even coherent in your arguements. Anyway, yes, Nas's latest 2 albums have been looking for kids approval/attention. Who was he talking ABOUT on HHID? Certainly not us, not his older, more mature fan base that listens to lyrics an appreciates depth. He was talking ABOUT the younger generation that is caught up on today's rap. If he didn't care ABOUT the younger generations' approval, he wouldn't have thought hip hop was dead in the first place, like myself, because it isn't dead INSIDE of the older audience. I think YOU missed the point of the whole album. as for his latest joint, you honestly can't see how his title is a ploy to get people to talk about hia album? W T F are we doing right now then? You can't picture 16 year olds in a lunch room taling about "You heard about that new album caller ++$*$*?" Stop deluding yourself...
Yo my man for that 1st bold thats true but then this is the case for many rappers in this day n age. 2nd bold regarding HHID if that albumwasn't for us and for the kids as you say I dont know how who has ever gained approval by kids by talkin down to them which is exaclty what he did onacouple track on HHID. 3rd n final bold you say to get people to talk about the album then go on to say 16 yeard olds in the lunch room. You do know its noteither or but both right? This got everybodys attention not just the kids, if it was only the kids I'd suggest this thread is made on ISS. You'refocusing on the kids which supposedly control the market of hip hop today. When in truth they dont every club banger that has come out has not resulted in goodsales for the album theres only a select few of artists selling regardless of the music and off name only and NaS is not 1 of them. So you're telling me ifNaS started making club joints the kids would approve of him and suddenly he'd sell? Are you dusted too my man??? You need to stop deluding yourself on whoyou really think NaS is. I mean straight out tell me what you want NaS to do in this situation. To you if nobody was talkin about this N---er album the way youthink NaS is he would have failed in trying to stir up a commotion right? sigh if thats what it comes to then so be it. How was SD for the kids? you didntanswer that btw. All of a sudden since Stillmatic NaS has turned into the rapper that craves attention and needs the approval of the younger generation forwhat? for what tho just so another generation can know he's a legend? whats his motive to do this. Is he that scared that his career is over? You know whatIm begining not to care anymore what you assume I dont want to hear is simply not the truth
