What NAS Is REALLY Like In The Studio | Deep Dive
Nas is one of the greatest writers of all time. From his storytelling to his metaphors, the way he maneuvers words to share his perspective on the world is a once in a lifetime ability. He’s had one of the most consistent runs of lyricism, ever and there is nothing that can happen that would take away Nas’ impact on Hip Hop over the last 3 decades.
