-
Dec 6, 2022Simply the worst Nas album ever made. I don't even understand how his managers and producers approved something like this. 0/10 and it's still too much in my opinion.
-
Dec 1, 2022The worst Nas album in his career, hands down. Pure **** nothing more, nothing less.
-

Aug 16, 2018Lyrically significant, as usual for Nas, but it's one of those albums that gets stale within 5 or 6 listens. Haven't felt need to re-visit

Jul 27, 2018Good effort from the Queensbridge king. I don't understand why the press didn't like it...
-
Jul 21, 2018Everything is great on this album, from its production to its featurings. It is notorious Kanye's touch in the album.

Jul 6, 2018Todavia no se como me siento con este album. Sobre la produccion, excelente, nada que quejarme pero lo que es "Nas" es muchas partes carece de esa lirica que lo caracteriza, siento que no se ezforzo mucho con este album, algunos de sus versos son aburridos mientras que otros si que valen la pena

Jun 27, 2018Nasir seems a lot slower than Nas' previous work, the production is good, just too empowering and tbh it is the worst out of Kanye's 5 in 1 month. Will forever love Nas though and like the messages he conveys in his music.

Jun 24, 2018Absolutely immaculate body of work from Nas over pristine production from Kanye West, we don't get rappers doing this sort of rap enough. Mature, knowledge based and elite, an album to uplift the people. The critics need to appreciate this more.

Jun 21, 2018It's not completely flawless, but it comes close to that. I get the critics somehow, Nas is on such a high level, everybody expected greatness, which he delivered imo. His voice over any type of beat is pure quality, match that with Kanye - u got a classic.
-
Jun 21, 2018This is great album. Production, rapping, and storytelling. One thing I dislike this album is that it has only 7 tracks. We were waiting almost 6 years, tracks weren't enough for me and people who like Nas. Anyway, welcome back God's son. Again, it is great album
-
Jun 21, 2018It's just a good little album. Nas's bars are among his most basic on this album. Most of the lyrical concepts are poorly developed. The beats are up to par with the rest of this summer's GOOD releases (i.e. great to terrific).

Jun 20, 2018I dont undersand the low scores for this album it’s great. I think people are looking back into nas past and don’t think it sounds the same ? Great album

Aug 3, 2018A prevailing quantity of the tracks is either forgettable or regrettable. Nas often sounds unenthused.
-
The WireJul 26, 2018Nasir comes closest to being an unqualified success. Those still hoping for the return of ruthless adolescent Nasty Nas will be disappointed--although recent allegations of spousal abuse from ex-wife Kelis cast a troubling shadow--but his voice is thick with middle-aged grit and gravitas. [Aug 2018, p.63]
-
MojoJul 23, 2018A major step up, until Nas fluffs the rhyme ball spouting credulity-testing conspiracies. [Sep 2018, p.96]
