Yeah you know what it is. What ch'all think? To me it's prolonging the nostalgic theme of his last album, this time getting way more personal. If you don't know much bout Nas you'll catch some history drifts from the lyrics, respect his mustache numsayinh. Meanwhile, beatwise it's smooth - rainy days guitars, pianos, faint female vocals and some sax. If this song was in HHID it would be one of the better instrumentals and although that's not saying much, it's a decent beat regardless. I gotta be gettin' more listens so nilla washow goddaymn neck.
What's this now? (don't trust this link too much, I've seen way too many of his links being deleted or summin') We on to Jay-Z now. Hmm, aside from the hateful fact that he's annoying (Jay adlibs? none for me please) and that he's using the name of my favourite smooth soul group Blue Magic thus fucking up chances of me gettin' good search results of they albums on google, this song is just straight up hateable. Not unlike Nas, Jay-Z didn't move away much from his last release. This song feels as empty and irrelevant. And what about that Pharrell beat, that's weak. I'm pretty sure Pharrell doesn't reserve the good ones only for Clipse, Snoop and JT cause he's done some catchy shit for Ho as well but this beat is just straight up too whatever for something with a Neptune touch.
