I downloaded the leak version, I havent listened yet. Is it that good? Cuz people are throwing the world “classic” around…then again apparently all albums are “instant classics” nowadays.
Coco Cordero said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:01 pm
from my POV this is best album of the year so far… and it does have some memorables songs…all instrumentals are bangin and the lyrics are deep and every song has a message so why not call it a “classic”
gangster said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:03 pm
man…. i’ve never really followed nas, but this album is the SHIT. for real.
jacob. said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:04 pm

LOL @ all these Nas crushes…suckin that Black Panther dick!!
Underground904 said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:25 pm
Although I’m not going to go as far to say that it is a classic, this is the best album I’ve heard in several years. I’m definitely going to buy a real copy in support of this album. “Africa Must Wake Up” & “Count Your Blessings” are the highlight imho. Damian & Stephen Marley really did a beautiful job on the production side.
Distant Relatives = 9.5/10
As close to a classic as it gets in 2010

Mohammed said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:30 pm
damn straight fire, my favorite rapper/artist of all time and the hottest reggae man since Bob. This sounds like some groundbreaking hotness
dro said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:30 pm
Dope. Definitely buying a copy. All the cuts I’ve heard have been fresh & I definitely think it’s in the running for one of the best albums of 2010.
Wise said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:30 pm
my favorite album in at least the past few years…
we’ll see if its replay value is still high in a few years but im confident this will go in the ranks of my favorite albums ever.
i certainly will be purchasing.
Zach P said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:32 pm

London said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:33 pm
I’m definitely going to support quality hip hop and purchase DR when it drops… You should post “In His Own Words”…blows me away.

WordIsBorn said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:38 pm
30 seconds isn’t really enough to judge… But I can only assume I wont be impressed wit the beats, overall its probably going to be a descent album though
J_More said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:40 pm
The 18th is gonna go down in history.
This joint is hot. the Talib Hitek joint is hot, and the Janelle Monae joint is straight fire.
are all getting purchased.
sammy said this on May 9th, 2010 at 5:43 pm
I don’t have any money to buy this…
:(
Or the other great albums coming this year…
I’m pissed. I want to buy this album.
Deeznuts said this on May 9th, 2010 at 6:04 pm

Album is only 13 tracks.

Does anyone have a link to “Ancient People”
WordIsBorn said this on May 9th, 2010 at 6:26 pm
Tribal war is crack. This album is def a classic and I hope these two keep making good music like this. So far the replay value seems high because all the songs are really dope and have good messages.
Don’t forget to cop it on the 18th though.
Dfrye said this on May 9th, 2010 at 6:28 pm
just listened to it..its good..def not great..repetitive..def has barely any replay value….i think u guys gotta give it a few more listens before u say its the best album in years..def not even close
Drastik said this on May 9th, 2010 at 6:33 pm
Amazing album!
DetoxDoesntExist said this on May 9th, 2010 at 6:44 pm
Listened to it. Its good, but its no instant ‘classic’. At times it gets a little repetitive and preachy. It’s worth the money though, and I’ll probably buy if I have money left over from the rest of the albums that are coming out that day.
TheFuckingTruth said this on May 9th, 2010 at 6:48 pm
I just wanna hear “tribes at war” beat is tough.
Ralph said this on May 9th, 2010 at 7:08 pm
@Drastik ive listened to it 3 times full through today and 9 or so of the tracks have been out for weeks and ive been spinning them since the days they leaked so i have enough listens to “def” say its my favorite in years.
Zach P said this on May 9th, 2010 at 7:11 pm
THA SYLINSIR, LINO & YUNG CUE “16,32,48″ (Prod. By Sy) WORLD PREMIERE !!!!!!! http://www.zshare.net/audio/758906129aa8f574/
sy said this on May 9th, 2010 at 7:18 pm
question… what else leaked today?
b. said this on May 9th, 2010 at 7:44 pm
The entire album already leaked.
DetoxDoesntExist said this on May 9th, 2010 at 7:52 pm
Lol, I think everyone should give at least 5 years before you name something classic, at least 5.
But for real this album is seriously good.
Abdul said this on May 9th, 2010 at 8:04 pm

where can i find leakd albums as soon as it drops
Young Forever said this on May 9th, 2010 at 9:18 pm
Still shoulda had Popa Wu or at least Popa Chief repp on this one. But they left off the Gods. They really did mess up by not including the Gods on this album.
Robbie Maynard The III said this on May 9th, 2010 at 10:06 pm
Not even going to dl the leak. I’ll purchase when it drops
Xavier said this on May 9th, 2010 at 10:41 pm

patience = major dopeness

this is garbage. lol @ every1 sayin classic.
yaowa said this on May 10th, 2010 at 12:40 am
The album transcends both Nas’ hip hop background and Marley’s background in Reggae, creating a unique sound to today’s music scene. I’m unsure where it will end up falling, but it’s the closet thing I’ve heard to Classic-Status in years. Support quality hip hop and download this album.
WordIsBorn said this on May 10th, 2010 at 12:49 am
that track NAH MEAN is crazyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
T-Dot said this on May 10th, 2010 at 1:02 am

THE WILL MAKE HISTORY WITH THIS PROJECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REGARDLESS OF WHAT ANY ONE STATES. THIS IS THE TYPE OF MUSIC THAT CAN BE DISCUSSED 5O YEARS FROM NOW AS SOMETHING THAT HAD CONTENT AND MEANING. THIS IS THE TYPE OF MUSIC THAT WAS CREATED BACK IN THE DAYS THAT CAUSES US TO EMBRACE THOSE GREATS LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON, BOB MARLEY, HARRY BELAFONTE, JIMI HENDRIX, THE BEATLES, MARVIN GAYE, ISAAC HAYES,…ETC.
YOU CAN TEACH THIS IN A CLASS.YOU CAN HAVE A COURSE ON THIS!! CAN YOU HAVE A COURSE ON LIL WAYNE? CAN YOU HAVE A COURSE ON SNOOP DOGG, JAY Z? NO NO NO!!! FORGET ABOUT WHAT THE GAME NEEDS, THIS IS WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS!!
