Hey Term, you would know. Can you explain the whole Nas and Jay z feud that they had? Like what started it?

After 2pac & biggie died. Nas was Jay-Z's only real competitor, so he initiated it. Which was (imo) a business move by jigga, afterall he is an entrepreneur. Although they had feuds way before the beef came to the publics attention. After Nas was invited to drop a verse for Jay-Z's 'Reasonable Doubt' track "Bring it On", but he never showed up. Jay sampled Nas' 'The world is yours' and there were issues involving the payment.

I recommend checking out this documentary..

An important thing to remember from Nas & Jay-Z's fued was it purely musical.

Unlike Biggie and Pac's so called "fued", it was purely comprised off seeing who could make the better track. The reason why it's held as the greatest fued ever, is because no guns or violence ever broke out as a result. There was only 1 diss track between Pac and Biggie and that was Hit Em Up. Biggie never replied (Who Shot Ya? doesn't really count), their beef was more about the producers (Diddy vs Knight) than it was the artists.

The video for 'I need a Doctor' will be leaking soon..

I was expecting better from Detox though tbh, it's a decent track nevertheless.

Dope track, Nice use of the Nas sample too.

DJ Premier is a legend, He's one of the greatest producers of all time next to RZA, Dre and all them.

....

The DJ Premier beat Kanye & Bun B passed on

According to Gimantalon, this was one of the gems that Premo created specifically for 'Ye, and possibly My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, which, as we all know by now never made the cut. Known as the JJ or Jermaine Jackson beat. Bun B also passed on it. Who could y'all hear in your heads over this beautiful joint? Where you at Nasir?

I can see Kanye not being bad on this, if he used the flow he had on 'Classic'.

Here's some quality hip-hop for you "gentlemen" ... Posh Rap, who would have thought a Clarinet goes well with a beat

[LDN Blue 7,903]

That's actually quite good

Sold out to coca-cola, used for a trend, and that means you're banned from using a pen

Brilliant LOL

Anyone got a favourite Nate dogg hook btw?

This is an underrated classic from him imo, Dope production from eminem too.
