    Absolute rubbish. Nas continues to pick poor beats. I’m sure with the amount of money he’s sp*nked up the wall getting beats of Megahertz, Salaam Remi he could’ve bought a double album of Pete Rock, Premier and Alchemist tracks by now. He’s strong enough a name to garner decent sales, and his most successful singles have always been gutter e.g ‘Made U Look’ – this just sounds like ‘Nas Album Filler by Numbers. A shame cos he’s a quality MC. NAY!

    Come on people you aint a serious Nas fan if you think this is a crazy NAS joint it would be good for someone else but Nas can do way better ‘Surviving the times’ was a classic joint I want some more joints like that. Nas is still a living legend so dont hate on that but this song aint that great.

    dont get me wrong im a massive fan, nas is my man (pause) but this single is just wack….the concept for the chorus, the beat is ok but kinda corny and doesnt suit his flow at all….

    its not that bad, but he can do sooooooooooooo much better

    meh, it’s alright. he could do a lot better. the beat is alright, doesn’t quite bang but it doesn’t jump out — it almost sounds like another ditched track from Hip Hop Is Dead. i agree with Will — Nas should do something harder, lyrically and musically. especially with an album that’s already garnered this much controversy. you can’t have an album title like this one then deliver something expected.

    I’m torn. It’s not what I was hoping for, but I could learn to dig it.

    He could do better though, S.T.T was sweet

    nas needs to come hard and stop putting out crap…this sounds like he was in the studio just playing around and shit…this is a throw away track….not impressing me with this at all. I love Nas but wtf was that.
