With the help of several best-selling albums, Nas proudly became the Teamin Between of Hip Hop in the middle and late 1990s. However, Nas's outstanding hip-hop atmosphere in new york deeply attracts fans. Nas can't see the sense of bondage in narrative, but is extremely real and keen observation. A series of swearing words used by Nass, from b***h to f**k, also outline his street style from poverty. In the slow version of the rhythm, Nass tells urban stories with his smooth voice like Q-Tip, but he is comfortable and has no pressure.

Since the mid-1990s, as the son of the great jazz musician Olupala, Nass, known as a street poet, has reflected a series of street events and social phenomena from his songs, especially 1994' s debut album "lllmatic", which not only shocked the whole hip-hop community, but also attracted high praise from music critics, and was also full of poetic rap skills. The second album "ItWasWritten", which jumped to the top in the first week of release, brought the popularity of this new generation rapper to the peak; 1999, the album "Me" and "Nastradamus" were released twice in a row. With the cooperation of PuffDaddy, DMX, Aaliyah and others, more melodic and charming music was laid out, and the sales figures were brilliant!
The Son of God is expected to be a record with a key turning point. Its first five songs continue the style of Nas in Illmatic: sharp lyrics, fast background music effect and melting chocolate sound. Simple sampling is very suitable for Nas, whose rap style comes from the old-school rap type. Rarely did he act so fiercely and his voice so gorgeous and complicated as in the opening song "Get Down". The sample of "Made You Look" comes from "Apache" written by the industry leader of Deep Funk. After some sorting, it is full of vitality and freshness. The cross was written by Eminem.
Also worth mentioning in the album is Song of the Warrior, which shows that alicia keys, who is singing with him, is not only a superstar, but also decides to occupy a place in hip-hop music. "Rhyme Book" is a new concept. Nas is really annoying. He has been turning over a forgotten notebook until he finally finds a clue. In the Mob Building (new york), he and tupac shakur sang together with the accompaniment of two guitars. Dance is a requiem sung by Nass to his mother, who died of cancer in April 2006.
The best song is Last Real N**** Alive, which is very enlightening. He took us back to Wu Tang in 1993. In today's era when everyone is calling others to copy their own ideas, Nass admits that he borrowed the music styles of these two people. When we look back on the road he has traveled, we will find that every step of his life has been well thought out.
This album has infinite charm, and the songs in it are enough to make people believe that Nas can definitely be listed as one of the most outstanding artists in hip-hop history. It's not flawless, but it's wonderful.
In recent years, the British and American hip-hop music circles seem to go their own way and have little communication with each other. American rapper Nass decided to be the ambassador of hip-hop in Britain and America, and recruited promising hip-hop rookies to record his new album Streets Subject.
Nass and his Sony record company put a new song "The Thief's Theme" on their website. They invited rappers from Britain or Ireland who were interested in appearing in Nas albums to download performances, and then added their own lyrics and vocal performances and sent them to record companies. Nas will select a winner from all the contestants and join the performance of other songs in Street Theme, so that potential newcomers can try their first song.
