    ^^ "The Set Up" or "Shootouts"? I like them songs for beats.


    It Was Written ain't that much of an album anyway. And Nas wasn't ignorant on Illmatic, he proved there he's literate and smart enough to make nimble verses with lots of overt/covert references. He's stupid only when he tries to make a difference with his words.

    shootouts

    set up is my shit, i just couldn't remember names

    by ignorant i didn't mean he was stupid but he didn't come of as someone that knew much outside of casual observations on illmatic and the majority of the album is about blunts guns and weed.

    he's just dumb when he tries to express his political views through songs.
