Free Music Review: NaS - God's Son
Hit: 5 Stars
Man, Nas killed the game with this album. This is still one of my favorite rap albums of all time, right behind Illmatic. This album is so good, but the coolest thing about this album is that it shows that even the toughest guys have an softer side. Im not saying in any way shape or form that Nas is soft, or fake, im simply stating that this album is alot more emotional and spiritual than any of his other work. And its a good thing because he really opens up, and the result is some of the best storys ever told in the form of Nas's killer lyrics. NaS has always been know as a rapper that does not hold back his feeling for anyone. What he feels he says, plain and simple. And he shows alot of that on this album. Some of the many highlights on this stellar album include the very chill and laid back "Get Down", the dark and dimented Eminem produced "The Cross" where NaS pretty much says that he is keeping Hip Hop alive, which most would agree with. And then the big hit single which is definetly a NaS greatest hit, "Made You Look" is another great song. But if i had to choose just one song to be my favorite on this album, i would have to choose "Book Of Rhymes", because not only is NaS in tip top shape with his flows on this record, but the production is amazing on that song as well with its lasery sharp production and mid tempo boom boom clap beat. Nas really just went out and made a really personal record instead of trying to make a street banger, he just made an album thats true to him. This is definetly, at least in my opinion, NaS's second best album behind the obvious Illmatic. Which i dont think that anyone will ever come close to the level of that album. But the thing that really kinda dissapoints me about this album is that it got really overlooked. It still went Gold, but this album should honestly be a couple times platinum. Overall, Nas really brought rap back with this album. And its good that this album was as good as it was because after I Am, and Nastradamus, people started to think that NaS was falling off. Now Stillmatic, was good to, but not nearly as good as God's Son, thats why i say God's Son really brought him back.

God's Son Poster
Do we have to compare Nas to Jay-Z? Probably not, but skirmishes between New York's premier MCs make it difficult for us to stop. Nas's God's Son may fall victim to Jay Z's more polished Blueprint 2 on the battlefront, but as far as Nas releases go, this one's not that bad at all. In fact, there are some striking stand-out selections. "Made You Look" and "Last Real Nigga Alive" (Nas's inevitable "why Jigga is wack" track) are white hot for the streets, and the Alchemist-produced "Book of Rhymes" showcases the type of witty yet introspective rhymes that Nas fans crave. Still, one can't escape the impression that the album suffers from a bloated track listing and quite a few unnecessary guest appearances, including yet another "collaboration" with the long-dead 2Pac. We also could have done without the tired misogyny of the limited-edition bonus track, "P***y Kills." Oh, and Salaam Remi's beat on "Zone Out" deserves a doper rhyme than the one it supports. But for the most part, Nas's flow is on point. --Rebecca LevineRap & Hip-Hop Music CDs
