Nas

God's Son

WOW

Review Score:

(10/10)
Nas is probably the best MC rapping today, considering he has no competition. Jay-Z's retiring, 2Pac and Biggie are dead, and Eminem's busy with his stuff.

"Get Down"- One of my favorite songs. He tells a story from a court hold up to a fight with his cousin.

"The Cross"- A daring chorus("I'd carry the cross, if Virgin Mary had an abortion), but none the less is a tight song. Eminem produces.

"Made You Look"- An old school battle song for our generation.

"Last Real N*gga Alive"- An autobiographical story of the beefs that he's had.

"Zone Out"- A poor song that doesn't fit the album at all. Bravehearts need 2 give up.

"Hey Nas"- An okay song featuring Nas' future wife Kelis.

"I Can"- A good, catchy song for the kids.

"Book of Rhymes"- An interesting song. He's basically digging through his book of rhymes and rapping some of them.

"Thugz Mansion(N.Y.)- Basically the same as the Pac version with Nas on it, except Nas makes the mistake of taking off one of Pac's verses and adding one of Nas'.

"Mastermind"- A cool fight song produced by Alchemist I think.

"Warrior Song"- A good song with a sung chorus by Alicia Keys.

"Revolutionary Warfare"- An old school feeling with guest rapper Lake.

"Dance"- This is a song no one can hate. A beautiful dedication to his deceased mother(it made my mom cry the first time she heard it).

"Heaven"- A fast paced song that kinda sounds like Christian rap with cuss words.

This album is as close as you will get to a classic these days. With all the Chingy's, Murphy Lee's, and Ja Rule's around, it's good to hear a tight record from an artist who's actually been around and knows what the hell he's talkin bout.
