If @Nas turns down business opportunities people will say he don’t have a business mindset .
If he does business they will say he a capitalist
When he doesn’t make commercial songs
They say he doesn’t have hits
If he does make commercial songs they will say he’s selling out
@hiphop1994rwc@AdrielGreen@AdrielGreen is right.
He is basically saying Kendrick is clearly one of Nas spawns, and direct extension -Influence-wise.
People of all spectrums gravitate to him (Young and Old).
This is evident due to the reaction of NLU, his monthly streams, and Tour attendance…
Jim says Nas has no influence present day in hip-hop. Kendrick is the biggest artist in 2024 & 2025. "Man At The Garden" is an interpolation of "One Mic". On the Clipse song "Chains & Whips" Dot says, "Let's be clear, hip-hop died again." Basically saying Nas was right in 2006.
