well, this really sucks. I just wrote a huge paragraph and only got a
couple of lines to come out in print. 1st complaint. guess it wasn't
that important, but don't worry... i remember it. i'll bless you all
in a few.

to add to what i was saying... basically after the 1st cd nas put out
(classic), fans flocked to get his 2nd. disappointment led to lower
sales on his 3rd, 4th, and so on. now i don't think there is anything
wrong with putting out a 'popular' cd to ensure your grandkids are
fed. but at the very least, give the 'popular' fans something they
want to hear. what's unfortunate is that nas doesn't seem to thrive
off of mainstream hip hop as jay does. i don't personally listen to
most mainstream hip hop, but jay attracts my attention because he
happens to bridge the gap better than, quite possibly anyone before.
true, i like mos def, kweli, common, outkast, and the rest of
erykah's kids(that was pretty funny), but good music is good music.
and for the most part, i don't think nas has come with it in a while.
and by the way, R.I.P. 2pac and big: and forgive us, many of us just
take things to heart when it comes to your name.
