Despite his flair for dramatic overreaching, or perhaps because of it, Nas became New York's favorite rapper in the mid-'90s and remained near the top for over a decade. Rivals and time challenged his stay at the top of the New York rap scene — one of the more notable challenges being his bout with Jay-Z in the early 2000s — yet Nas soldiered on, continually changing his style and stepping up his game. Over the years, Nas went from being a young street hustler (Nasty Nas) to a boastful gangsta (Nas Escobar) to a self-proclaimed poet/prophet (Nastradamus) to a re-born encapsulation of himself (the "Stillmatic" Nas). In addition, he worked with countless legendary producers — DJ Premier, Large Professor, Pete Rock, Dr. Dre, Trackmasters, Timbaland — and put Queensbr More... (Submit New Nas Lyrics) (Submit New Nas Lyrics) shoot em up positive | Reviewer: rishi ------ About the song Shoot 'Em Up performed by Nas I thought this song was amazing. I mean I had been hooked on Tupac for as long as I knew but when my friend showed me this song I was amazed and realized that there were other God rappers out there besides Tupac. Strangely though when I heard this song for the first time it reminded me of the christmas carol twelve days of christmas. The whole one 44, two 45s, three loaded clips etc. Sort of like this dude in the song had his own violent version of the carol which he was going to deliver. This song along with many other Nas songs are amazing. still though Makaveli is the best. new niggaz in the game | Reviewer: pat ------ About artist/band Nas i was listening to that bomb azz niggaz jezzy and he said something smart about hip hop i9s not dead and he also said that you don"t be in the street how do you feel when young niggaz like da snow man say something like that?

One mic is good but this song has much more heart to it bcuz its literally everything that happened in his life.None of it is bullshut jus pure truth and thats wat really makes this song. When i first heard this song I kne this nigga was a genius. Ether | Reviewer: Josh ------ About the song Ether performed by Nas It seems that most of you think jay-z is better than Nas. Yes, jay-z has had more success in his career, but looking back to the ether song, nas didn't have anyone. Biggie basically created jay-z and no one will ever be as good as pac and big. EVER! jay-z isnt even close to being near them and he calls himself the greatest and hova means god. he is calling himself the god of rap. out of both these rappers nas clearly comes closer to being the best. Nas killed jay-z in this song and thats it. jay-z is horrible and i have no respect for him considering he didn't give biggie and credit. great song | Reviewer: mefromthere ------ About the song I Can performed by Nas from a french guy: this song is really great and nas is so damn right about what he says in his song, and sorry mikey but he's totally right about History they once were kings and greatest civilisation and the usa wasn't even an idea in some people minds. so telling that it's wrong makes of you a lier or a racist.did you hear about the golden triangle, trade and slavery of black people, did u know the craddle of the humanity is in africa,and do u still think jesus was a wasp?Nas is a excellent lyricist(sorry if it's not correct but my english need to be improved). Nas | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Ether performed by Nas Nas was the first New York nigga rapping with Dre. Nas gave Jay a style. If you say that Nas aint a living legend you dont know anything about rap. nastynas | Reviewer: bino ------ About the song Last Real Nigga Alive performed by Nas what the lyrics really got me! now i understand how the whole thing started damn..nas the realist nigga alive bealive that. Good News, Bad News | Reviewer: Red 1 ------ About the song One Mic performed by Nas If you a hoodlum, you're in a good spot. If you're a crackhead, you're in a good spot. If you're a nigga, you're in a good spot. If you hate rap, uh uh. Judgment day will crush those who hate Pac, The regulators ( the Fugees... Their words are prophecies. Hear me now, believe me later ). This could be God typing ;). Or just thinking... Chillz ma peeps. Upper class to Rap | Reviewer: Jack ------ About the song Shoot 'Em Up performed by Nas Since 90% of the hip hop industry is bought by white teenage boys like myself, and I don't have the urge to go out shooting up the streets, you guys can shut up. Seriously, Nas is telling you how he sees it, he's showing that it's not anyone's fault but the person choosing that lifestyle, he is simply going about his message as a story. Godfather was before the hip hop industry, yet you don't see a bunch of little white people running the streets. White people and minorities alike do equal crimes, as facts show, yet minorities crimes of oppurtunity are violent, and white people tend to do the other shit, aka steal money from work, embezzlement shit like that. I saw that Dick and Jane movie and let me tell you, I don't want to go rob a couple banks cause I have no money, just like I don't want to go smoke weed, sling rock, hold a "gat", I want to listen to this shit and relieve all the pressure's around me, you can't blame Nas, nor the industry for anything, blame the lack of oppurtunity created in the hoods causing people to go to that lifestyle, 20% of the population is not committing 20% of the crime, and since the black community is that 20%, shut the fuck up all you ignorant white supremists and even the black people who hate on their own culture. Embrace it, don't hate it, it's the fastest growing industry in the world, and you just want to blame it's success on that kind of bullshit, fuck you all....to make matter's worse I'm a white republican and I watch O'Rielly and I think he's closed minded. DOPE!! | Reviewer: Butterz ------ About the song N.Y. State of Mind performed by Nas Yo Nas is the dopest MC ever. That nigga is cool, can't no body in da game touch him. Look at his lyricial state of mind, and also he was only 20 years old when he did the joint!!! How many rappers can you say on that level? Queens stand up | Reviewer: mike ------ About the song Ether performed by Nas Its been so long since this song came out, but it still to this day is the best battle record ever created. Not only did it win the battle for Nas, but it took down Jay, at least for a little bit. Jay has seen much more success than Nas after all this but the damage was done. Its like Michael Jordan will always be known as the best player in the game, but Allan Iverson can always say I broke Jordans ankles with my crossover. I havent heard a diss track since that even came close to doing the damage that this did. You could argue and say 50 cent killed Ja Rules career but it took him lots of songs, most which were corny as hell. Nas dropped Ether and boom, battle over, done!
