| I'm over 50 and rarely listen to Rap or Hip Hop. I found this CD after watching "Shadowboxer" starring Helen Mirren and Cuba Gooding Jr. I LOVE this CD. Loved the movie too. I like the message of NAS. I think he's got music in his blood and would buy another CD anytime. |

Heaven Submitted on: 2008-09-05 |

| I don't listen to a lot of Hip Hop music. Most of it I don't like at all. But it's different with Nas. His lyrics are (mostly) intelligent, edgy, frequently engaging and exhilerating, and I really like the tone of his voice. God's Son and It Was Written are my favorite Nas albums, but Lost Tapes, Street's Disciple, Hip Hop Is Dead and Untitled are very good, too. Heaven off God's Son is probably my favorite Nas song; the lyrics deal with finding inner peace, and, towards the end also works as a touching "inner dialogue", if you will, with his deceased mother. I love the last verse, where Nas goes: "I'm talkin' about a heaven in your own heart / In your own world, baby, in your existence / To my moms, look at me, baby / I love you, girl, your boy is shinin', God's son." The pride in Nas' voice gives me goosebumps. |

NaS - God's Son Submitted on: 2008-07-07 |

Man, Nas killed the game with this album. This is still one of my favorite rap albums of all time, right behind Illmatic. This album is so good, but the coolest thing about this album is that it shows that even the toughest guys have an softer side. Im not saying in any way shape or form that Nas is soft, or fake, im simply stating that this album is alot more emotional and spiritual than any of his other work. And its a good thing because he really opens up, and the result is some of the best storys ever told in the form of Nas's killer lyrics. NaS has always been know as a rapper that does not hold back his feeling for anyone. What he feels he says, plain and simple. And he shows alot of that on this album. Some of the many highlights on this stellar album include the very chill and laid back "Get Down", the dark and dimented Eminem produced "The Cross" where NaS pretty much says that he is keeping Hip Hop alive, which most would agree with. And then the big hit single which is definetly a NaS greatest hit, "Made You Look" is another great song. But if i had to choose just one song to be my favorite on this album, i would have to choose "Book Of Rhymes", because not only is NaS in tip top shape with his flows on this record, but the production is amazing on that song as well with its lasery sharp production and mid tempo boom boom clap beat. Nas really just went out and made a really personal record instead of trying to make a street banger, he just made an album thats true to him. This is definetly, at least in my opinion, NaS's second best album behind the obvious Illmatic. Which i dont think that anyone will ever come close to the level of that album. But the thing that really kinda dissapoints me about this album is that it got really overlooked. It still went Gold, but this album should honestly be a couple times platinum. Overall, Nas really brought rap back with this album. And its good that this album was as good as it was because after I Am, and Nastradamus, people started to think that NaS was falling off. Now Stillmatic, was good to, but not nearly as good as God's Son, thats why i say God's Son really brought him back.

Nas carrying on his legacy. Submitted on: 2007-09-27 |
|
| I don't think there's a doubt in anyones mind that Nas is a legend in the rap industry and will eventually go down as on of the best rappers of all time. This CD(in my opinion)topped Stilmatic(his previous album). Although he was never album to release another albums such as iLLMATIC or It Was Written, he delivered 2 more classic albums after that being Stilmatic and Gods Son. |
