Bruh what's crazy is he was like 25 or 26 at that time and was already considered one of the greatest rappers to ever live!! Insane what kind of hip hop talent we used to have
Yea he was nice - Pac was 25 and only had about 7 years of material that ((was and still is considered the greatest)) - now that is crazy, how a dude only had about 7 years of rap material compared to dudes with 30 years of material and these dudes are still breathing but still haven't taking over that #1 spot
You're not wrong just not exact. Succour is more precise and remember that Arabic is very hard to translate to English even prominent scholars & translators like Ali often get these words wrong. English is actually quite overrated as a language and you understand this when you study African and Eastern languages even a little bit.
Yo Nas Response To The Answer Of Holding The Cross Was Official. Nas is A Highly Intelligent Brother, It's Great To Know He's Still Representing For The Culture In A Beneficial Way....Much Props From Florida To Nas...
REAL FUCKING FACT!!!!! Quickside bar I wish the ladies looked that mid-late 90’s look very SEXY....I was about 13-14 years old when this dropped.....Miss these days a lot.......Nasir “Nas” Jones the illest......
Tupac was severely missed at that point in rap music - Nas had the right thoughts, but he just wasn't the personality that 2Pac was, not as nearly as offensive. When Nas is being asked something here, he's like "I want to keep my thoughts to myself, but I'll answer because you asked".... whereas 2Pac was like "I'll tell you what I think, plus I'll tell you what YOU should think, and I'll respond as if you asked me 5 different questions".... A good example is here at 4:30 - the host wants to know badly what "Nas Escobar" means, and Nas is like "Nothing man, just a nickname, not worth the question, let's go to the next question"...... If he had asked 2Pac what "Makaveli" means, the response would've been quite different. I guess in a way people were looking for a new 2Pac and were hoping that one of the other rappers would do the same, but it just wouldn't happen. Rappers at that time were like priests, and 2Pac just happened to be the most charismatic priest you could imagine.
So true, always felt that, Tupac is a Gemini very confident in the spotlight and extroverted and speak their minds. Virgo are more reserved and self conscious. PEACE
Well, you do realize Pablo Escobar was a known drug kingpin? So Nas probably didn't want to get on a non hip hop show and say that he got his nickname from a drug dealer, seeing as how rappers already have a bad rep and are looked at very negatively. Whereas Nikolai Makaveli was a philosopher, so it wouldn't have been frowned upon if Tupac talked about where he got his nickname from.
This was a great show, the 90s and early 2000s was the peak of black of entertainment from music, movies, tv shows. I remember when I came to the USA from the Dominican Republic it made you proud to be black.
4:35 ...talks about that on a song called The Rise And Fall, which was supposed to be on the original I Am/Nastradamus...which was almost just as good as Illmatic on a content/lyrical level.... And Rachel has a sultry face.... Dope interview because rappers would never cop to saying "it was just a phase" and man comes on TV and mentions son of Most High looking like so called black man...this a gem
@@neverhungryagain2187 how so? I can't tell. Look at the video, and then go on his Instagram page and check out one of his recent pictures, he still looks exactly the same.
To think, two years after this son dropped the "Ether". Shoutout to Rachel though. Finest thing I saw on the screen back then. I know she doing well today also!
you cant call another dude 'fine' and expect the 'no homo' to work. Thats like robbing a store and tell them you aint a thief. You can say he is a handsome brother, or good looking.. thats different.

Good lord man!
Nasir means a victor or victorious in Arabic. Which is exactly what nas is
It actually means succour to be exact. There's a Surat or chapter in the Holy Quran towards the end with that name.
Thamsanqa Hadebe ahaa interesting, I always thought it was victorious

The most talented are introverted, is something i had to learn at this age. 2pac loved the camera too much, Nas on the other hand, don't.
