Advantages: The Most Personal Nas album ever Disadvantages: A few
Nas took a humongous break but struck back hard with Stillmatic, which found Nas returning to his roots. Fans welcomed Nas back and awaited his next album, which was highly anticipated. Unfortunately, his parade was a bit torn down. Rumors circulated all around about Nas selling out and signing with commercial hip-hop label Murder Inc. Not to mention that his collaboration with Ja Rule and Ashanti didn't exactly help matters out. However, Nas proved everybody wrong with the release of God's Son, as we see Nas single-handedly bring his career from the depths and ressurect it like Jesus Christ himself. Never fear Nas rans, Murder Inc and all of its subdivisions are void from this album. Stillmatic began the rebirth, and God's Son gives Nas life once again...
Nas decides to kick off God's Son with a bang with the legendary "Get Down ...
Advantages: Great mix of songs and artists. Disadvantages: Not always the best of the bands hits.
As a child born in the 80's I have come to adore the music of the time, I'm always on the lookout for a good compilation CD and happened to spot this one during a shopping trip in Asda. Flipping the CD over to look at the track listing my eyes were drawn to one track and I didn't need to read the rest to know I had to have the CD.
Capital Gold Eighties Legends contains songs by just that, 80's legends. There is a wide variety of artists providing a wide range of styles from pop to rock, Motown style and funk. It is a 2 disc CD providing 40 great 80's tunes.
Because it is an 80's compilation, and most of us would have either heard the songs or heard of them, I wont go into a track by track description, that would spoil the fun of going out to buy the album and getting the know the songs yourself.
Disc One-
Disc one is packed ...
Advantages: good lyrics, production from Eminem Disadvantages: few tracks which are not that good
Nas returned in 2002 with GodsSon his 5th Studio album. This album was the follow up to the massive album ?Stillmatic?. Nas returns to his Illmatic days with this album and his raw lyrics to make this a brilliant album. With his lyrics it has old school beats and is very similar to Rakim.
Nas shows his maturity as a rapper as he raps about his mothers death. This is very good album and I highly recommend it.
1.Get Down ? A old school track, very up beat , Nas goes back to his original rap roots to pull this track out. Very good track 9/10
2. The Cross ? Produced by Eminem, My personal favourite, Very good beat one you can nod your head along too. 10/10
3. Made You Look ? Very good beat, lyrically it is very good. I recommend the remix with Jadakiss And Ludacris a much better track. 7/10
4. Last Real N**** Alive ...
