#763 Nas – Illmatic

Posted on by anoceanroars

Nas? What is a Nas? I hope it is not rap. Why does it sound like a rapper’s name or group? Oh crap! It is hardcore hip-hop. His debut album Illmatic was released in 1994. What I discovered is that he uses multisyllabic internal rhymes.

This is just another album filled with obscenities. If Nas had not put in all the vulgarity, then I think I might have liked it. His voice is okay and I like the music. I like the rhythm of his lyrics, but I hate his lyrics. The album has a jazz feel to it. I think if you don’t mind hearing foul words, then you might really like this album. 5/10.

…and i hate writing about myself. It feels awkward. Or i am a bit awkward and rather not write about it. i have not got a clue where to begin or end… …at this very moment i am a recent graduate of Colorado State University. i live in Longmont, Colorado, which i next to Boulder. Boulder is where all hipsters live. See, this crap is rather boring. i moved here from Budapest, Hungary four years ago, well, actually that is sort of a lie. i was living in Lyon, France one year before i moved to Colorado and before that Hungary. i like to travel or move. i keep moving… i have many interest besides moving: writing, watching, taking, listening and reading (stories, films, photographs, music and books).
