One thing I definitely look forward to in 2010 is more music from this left coast spitter. Who had the following to say about what’s to come.
“Just wanted to thank everybody for their support in 2009. I couldn’t have been asked for a better group of colleagues, fans, and team to help get my music out to the masses. I’m gonna drop this project I actually wrote and recorded in a week while living in LA last summer before I did “The Antidote”. I chose to hold off on it for a while, but feel 2010 is the perfect time to let my fans hear it. Here’s a little taste of it. Shout outs to Green Lantern for lacing me with instrumentals, to Large Pro for helping me get what is almost impossible to get and to one of the best poets to ever live who inspired me to do what i do. Look for more music, collabs and shows for 2010. God Bless and Thanks again.”

Fashawn Covers “Memory Lane” by Nas « Phresh Graffiti said this on December 28th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
Fashawn has skills. Liked how he flipped the Memory Lane joint into his own perspective. Boy Meets World was great. Looking foward to new music from him in 2010.
it takes balls to go over anything Illmatic…Fashawn and Elzhi r two of the only ones who can even come close to doing it justice. This was dope. Wheres ELmatic anyone know?
Nice to hear some new ish from Fashawn. Boy Meets World was one of the best albums of the year.
I tried to put myself on dude after seein him on everybody’s Freshman List in the c-section back when yall posted the rumored XXL List…wasn’t really feelin him but this is decent…Memory Lane is my faverite Nas track of all time, that and NY State of Mind are the best off Illmatic
I never get why when people make covers of classic shit, why they tend to sound exactly like what’s already been said. Elzhi didn’t do it on TWIY, and that made his shit unique. He put his sound into it. The similar flow ish is boring, imo. Try again, Fashawn.
I like Fashawn… Boy Meets World is crazy nice! But leave this instrumental alone bruva!!! You don’t touch classic shit… He didn’t sound fresh at all on this! Nas spit Uzi clips on Memory Lane… nobody should be touching that beat
You guys are fucking trippin, Fashawn went too hard on this song!
imitation is a form of flattery.
and in the case of fashawn, it is an homage.
i interviewed the kid, and he knows the stature of nas and his music.
but we all mimic the greats. who didn’t wanna be like mike?
THURZDAY OF UNI SHOULDNT BE ALLOWED WITHIN 10 MILES OF THIS BEAT!!! EVEN THEY KNOW THEY CANT RAP, MARKETING THEY CAN DO.
New kids like to take old beats.. it’s gonna happen. This was my favorite track from Illmatic. I don’t mind at all if Fashawn borrows it- he’s one of the good ones.
I’m not the biggest UNI fan, but cmon man Thurzday can rap. Listen to some of his verses on that Mick Boogie tape they did.
And Fashawn was aight on this track. Nothing special, but his album was ill

This joint is beasty as hell.
Would’ve been better if he did his own flow on this. It just shows how much better Nas is than him and He made the song like 17 years ago.
dude is da truth not better den a young nas thow
Fashawn did this track justice. I love hearing new artist support each other. Do not front on Thurz at all. He is one of the best. Only a deaf ass would hate on these dudes
New kids like to take old beats.. it’s gonna happen. This was my favorite track from Illmatic. I don’t mind at all if Fashawn borrows it- he’s one of the good ones.

This!
WOW!!!!!! Anyone hating on this is just that. A hater. Can’t wait for him to drop this tape. If he redid Illmatic that would be ill cause he’s the only artist i can see that could do it.
elzhi can and hopefully soon will.
this is nice
i want primo’s shirt…
