Hip-Hop Is Dead

They buggin say Nastradamus just wasn't one of my hardess', sold over a mil regardless.

I know a lot of people don't get it,but I love Nas' strategy, which consist of sticking to Incredible Bongo Band samples. I mean, overused samples are the essence of hip-hop, no ? From Made You Look to Hip Hop Is Dead via Thief's Theme and Serious with AZ, all those Michael Viner's samples have been put to good use.

Totally unrelated : Ain't Hard To Tell demo(fixed) and Rise And Fall.
