Nas’s daughter’s mother Carmen talked about the details from her perspective in her book. It was interesting… Jay is a narcissist. They always need to feed off of someone else bc they look lack their own authenticity and creativity. They stalk you and steal your identity as much as possible. Jezebel demon. Great detailed content!

Nas did Win, in New York we been knew that, I was listening live when Hot 97 played the songs back to back and the whole city voted..Nas won hands down

peace ceno
I'm from Brooklyn....born and raised.  I know for a fact that Nasir "bodied" Jay-Z. The barbershops up the street from Biggie's crib on Fulton/ St James was buzzin' about Nas crushing Shawn Carter. I know this for a fact. You hit a lot of genuine points. All those who think Jay-Z is better need to Youtube Nas being studied in colleges. I saw this seminar about 9 months ago. They studying Nas and doing blog-in commentary/questions in college classes. ACTUAL FACT. You answered for me why Jay-Z could never reach me on his albums the way Nas could. Never was about loyalty to a dude from my borough.
Having Foxy rhyming about moving bricks and designer clothes DEFINITELY DID NOT ring with me cause I was in 3rd and 4th grade with her oldest brother. Knew her moms and her background. Also knew how old she was and said "naaah this shit don't sound authentic".  All the time that was Jay. He's a great artist but he cant touch Nas

I think it’s the 10 times I’m listening to it again

You're on point 👉
What helped Jay recover from that defeat is when he started dating Beyonce, who was ascending as the next queen of R&B after Aliyah's passing.

Nas further breaks down the whole era... Nas - last real ni**a alive...  He really sums up the whole beef
C-Square

The Truth behind the Big Bird and Kermit Beef!!

That was the best battle right under the NWA Vs. Ice Cube! Ether was the East Coast "No Vasiline!"

Nas is more lyrical even though Jay-Z eventually became the more commercial artist. He wanted to be like Nas and Nas will foreva be one of the best who did it.

I remember moving to ny back in 94, and Nas was the truth!!!!

Come and Get Me is my favorite song on Vol.3

Nas Is King

Wow Karceno! I just Watched Steve Stoute Drink Champs Interview and Knew The Whole Story As He Was Telling It Because I Heard Most Of Them From You.

This Guy Really Knows What's What.

Illmatic is one of the best hiphop LP ever! Nas smoked jay z wit ether!

Lol we understood it in the UK man. You yanks always underestimating others knowledge

The Firm album was not a flop , that shit was a banger , i played that album all the damn time

That Ether was the nail in the coffin.  That song was it.  Done.

Been saying that from day one,Nas is better than Jay

yes Nas is the best for real

you didnt mention that Nas was also dealin with personal stuff with his moms cancer. thats also a reason he fell back before she passed away
