Time Is Illmatic

[mud]

I had HHID on yesterday for the first time in a while. Aside from a few tracks its decent. Far from his worst album but doesn't have that one classic banger to really put it over.

"Black Republican" and "Money Over Bullshit"

And of course the should have beens...








That Memory Man dude needs to remix HHID and Street's Disciple god damnit.

[step one]

Where Y'all At is better than anything on there but hearing it made me pick the album out

[EMCEE DARTH MALEK]

money over bullshit>>>

[stype_ones]

HHID is mad underrated. Aside from the title track and Who Killed It?, I love pretty much every track. Hold Down the Block is my shit. Let There Be Light as well.

Never listened to his other Nas remixes. Would this be the same Memory Man who's worked with Kool Keith?

Yeah.

His "You Won't See Me Tonight" remix is prolly the most impressive remix of all time.

From mediocre rap and bullshit to the best rap/rnb collabo ever.

^i prefer the timbo beat

the OG version of the title track is dope. "load a extended clip inside of the AK/ roll to every station murder the DJ". shame on def jam for censoring this + the whole untitled album. the label that used to ride for PE becoming the #1 rap thought police.

the best nas remix project IMO was nastradoomas

9th wonder's version of godson is great too of course, but no explicit version existing is rough

a compilation of the best Nas remixes was already made by the single greatest Nas fan of all times right here tho - http://www.steadybloggin.com/nas-it-was-remixed-2/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

personal faves:

Ghetto Prisoners (45 King blend) - completely transforms I Am filler to one of the best Nas tracks of all time and I'm not even exaggerating.


Surviving the Times (Cool & Dre)


The Cross (9th Wonder)


special shouts to the best Nas appearance remix

Nastradoomus sucks. Not one track from the good half of the album is better thn the OG.

God's Stepson sucks too, bar The Cross.

Word. Good call.

just off the top of my head "life we chose", "some of us have angels", and "god loves us" were better than the originals...

I always loved Eli's Remix of Family.

Eli's remix to self conscience is even better

Not a fucking chance.

Nothing wrong with the OG, its prolly a top 10 Nas track.

this is essential imo

I remember Statik Selektah actually dropped some ill Nas mixtape/remix comp thing around the time God's Son or Street's Disciple came out, which I was bumping for a while. Might've been this: http://www.datpiff.com/Nas-The-Prophecy ... e.113.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

WTF is up with the TROY Nas remixes piece taking shots at his verse on the Made You Look remix?!

[EMCEE DARTH MALEK]

With a few exceptions, these remixes being posted are wack. Especially the uwontcmetnite & 9wonder stepson -- the latter of which is an egregious bastardization of the og, without even considering the fact that it uses the radio edit vocals.

[sleazy_j]

radio edit vocals.

almost all of nas acapella tracks on the 12" singles are the radio edits. dunno why they always stuck with clean only, but that's how it has been.

I fucked up not mentioning On the Real. Might be #1

The OG version with Cormega & Kamakaze is the hardest shit Nas ever did
