Nas – “Made Nas Proud”
J. Cole had the world in the palm of his hands this week with the release of his epic sophomore release Born Sinner.
One of the highly talked about tracks was “Let Nas Down” as Cole spoke of disappointing the lyrical God when he released “Work Out” as his first single from his debut album Cole World.
Well J. Cole doesn’t have to worry about what Nas thinks now because the legend just co-signed his sophomore release and answered with a remix called “Made Nas Proud.”
“How that sound? Here’s the crown, pass it to you like nothin’/You ain’t let Nas down.”
Nas even takes a stab at his one time artist Quan who rocked out with the Q.B. MC on the classic “Just A Moment.”
“And who could I ask for help? Older ni%%as was gettin’ mad
But that’s The Gift and The Curse, that’s the good and the bad
At least you got Jay, but he already one of the greats
And it’s hard for the great to tell somebody how to be great
Ni**a I tried and ni##as threw that shit right back in my face
They took my cosign, but they ain’t let me EP their tapes
And when they joint tank, that’s when they point blame
So point-blank young Cole, you won’t be the same”
Peep the passing of the baton below.
