Pete Rosenberg got a chance to catch NYOIL before his show earlier this week. He spits some very brief thoughts on Nas, the song, and hip-hop overall. Good sound bites but nothing too substantial. However, KTL’s own J-Gilla (a real life architect and avid hip-hop analyst) gives his editorial on NYOIL and this whole situation. I think this is good for hip-hop! We are seeing purveyors of the hip-hop culture actually get involved in a healthy, intelligent discourse of the music. Its not beef - its a discussion, a debate of thoughts. Picture 50 and his ignorant nonsense and we are the opposite. We are trying to get our readers and fans to grow through our differences. See what J-Gilla has to say after the jump and you’ll be 10% smarter…
The internets are going crazy right now. First, HQ leaked track from Nas’ N!gger album. Produced by Salaam Remi. Maybe it is true that this album will come out this year. I am still deciding if I like it. Lyrics are good but beat and chorus are not as strong as I would like it. J-Gilla, I am interested in your opinion. Eskay got before all of us.
