Nas life is good download free#

HeРІР‚в„ўs come a long way from, РІР‚Сљ PS 111, free lunch / embarrassed but managed to get a plate / we was kids hungry, moms was workin I was famished, she getting home late.РІР‚СњР”Р‡or a moment forget about buzz, album sales, cultural impact and every other factor we consider during РІР‚СљwhoРІР‚в„ўs the best rapper alive?РІР‚Сњ debates. In that sense, Nas is at the very least one of the bravest rappers alive. To bring back the comparison thatРІР‚в„ўs been made for over a decade now, JAY-Z never let us this close to his real life, never showed us all his weaknesses alongside his strengths, his mistakes alongside his victories. Blige-assisted 'Reach Out,' the deeply 90s R&B influenced ' Bye Baby' and the now historic collaboration with Amy Winehouse, 'Cherry Wine.' And those are really only breathers in between the solid walls of dopeness that are cuts like 'Back When' and the supremely soulful 'WorldРІР‚в„ўs An Addiction.' Of course, that doesnРІР‚в„ўt mean that itРІР‚в„ўs downhill from 'Daughters.' I should acknowledge 'Summer on Smash,' which isnРІР‚в„ўt so much a fail as it is a weak link, but the record is only a small speed bump on the road compared to even the albumРІР‚в„ўs other brighter offerings, the Mary J. 'Loco-Motive' follows a similar powerful narrative arc, giving way to the gripping 'A QueenРІР‚в„ўs Story' (sweet baby Jesus the last minute of that song is incredible), shifting seamlessly into ' Accident Murderers'-shame about that off-concept Ross verse, though-and closing with the eminently personal ' Daughters.' Straight up, IРІР‚в„ўll put that five-song stretch against any 30 straight minutes from any album sinceРІР‚В¦wellРІР‚В¦ever.

Instead, itРІР‚в„ўs more of a manifesto, a warning shot, an announcement that GodРІР‚в„ўs Son is back and heРІР‚в„ўs bringing his cinematic storytelling skills with him.

Perhaps Nas titled the album opener 'No Introduction' because itРІР‚в„ўs far more than an introduction. I rarely move through an album chronologically, but the first five tracks of Life is Good are so dope, so perfectly sequenced that I really feel like I have no choice. 2Pac felt the shots were directed at him and fired back at Nas on 'Bomb First.' This entire song was a message to Biggie, as Nas later revealed. To return to that Complex interview, РІР‚СљWith this album, IРІР‚в„ўm saying what IРІР‚в„ўve got to say, and thatРІР‚в„ўs what it is.РІР‚Сњ I donРІР‚в„ўt know if it took a painful divorce or he has simply hit the point in his life when heРІР‚в„ўs thinking about his legacy, but goddamn then Nas, keep saying what youРІР‚в„ўve got to say. On his new album, Life Is Good, weРІР‚в„ўre hearing the most locked-in Nas has been in years, and the results are awe-inspiring.
