First off imma say got look up the video with show that came on BET that was hosted by SWAY and look at what the facts are about the jay-z nas beef.
u will clearly see them compare who had facts and who had bullshit to say. NAS HAD WAY MORE FACTS

ACTUALLY, NAS ONLY HAD 1 FALSE.

DON’T SAY SHIT JUST GO LOOK IT UP.

LET ME TEACH YOU FOOLS SOMETHING, PEOPLE DONT ROOT FOR TALENT, THEY ROOT FOR WHO THEY LIKE. WITH THAT SAID. EVEN THOUGH NAS IS THIRTY THOUSAND YEARS BETTER OF A LYRICIST THAN JAY-Z WILL EVER BE, FOLKS LIKE JAY-Z AND TO THEM HE WON. I GAVE IT TO NAS YEARS AGO BUT IM NOT REALLY A JAY-Z FAN BUT IM A FAN OF TALENT FIRST AND I DID SPEN MY HARD EARNED MONEY ON VOL.2 BY JAY-Z
BUT NEVER BOUGHT AN NAS ALBUM, REAL TALK. SO DONT SAY SHIT STUPID I JUST THINK NAS A BTTER RAPPER ALL THE WAY AROUND.

TO ME, NOT TO YALL MY NIGGA, TO ME.

JAY-Z TALK ABOUT SHIT THAT DON’T HELP YOU, YO MOMMA OR YOUR CHILD, HE ONLY STUCK ON BRAGGING ABOUT MATERIALISTIC LIKE CARS,CLOTHES AND CHAMPAGNE AND WHERE IS THE REALNESS BEHIND THAT.

THATS JUST A LIFESTYLE HE IS SELLING AND U CANT EVEN AFFORD IT. LOL!

JAY-Z had bullshit to say and Nas had more truth behind what he talks about. GO AND LOOK IT UP ON YOUTUBE. I PROMISE U, JAY-Z LOST HANDS DOWN.
EVERYONE LIKE MONEY OK. WE KNOW JAY-Z HAS MONEY AND THATS ABOUT ALL.

NAS TALK ABOUT SHIT ALL OF YOU DICK RIDING ASS NIGGAZZ NEED TO HEAR LIKE, EDUCATION, LIFE, LOVE SHIT U NEED BUT U CANT BUY WITH MONEY MY NIGGA. HE IS A TEACHER AND A SPEAKER, JAY-Z IS SIMPLY NOT.

IF U THINK IM WRONG JUST GO OUT AND BUY OR DOWNLOAD OR LISTEN TO ANY SONG BY JAY-Z AND NAS AND U TELL ME.

IM NOT TRYING TO ARGUE IM JUST TELLING YOU FOOLS DONT ARGUE. IT’S ALL OPINION AT THE END OF THE DAY.

NOW GO LOOK THAT UP.

THIS IS HOW STUPID DICK RIDERS CAN BE.

WHILE FOOLS IS ONLINE ARGUING OVER SOME OTHER NIGGA,
USE THE SAME ONLINE U USE TO ARGUE TO LOOK UP AND FIND THE TRUTH IN STEAD OF ARGUING, AND THAT SHIT IS REAL TALK. BUT NIGGAZ RATHER ARGUE AND HATE IN EACH OTHER
THAN ATTEMPT SEEK THE TRUTH. (DUMB ASS NIGGAZ)

AND THAT SOME SHIT NAS WOULD SAY!

AND ANYWAY, WHY, WHY, WHY DO all of yall keep arguing about other niggaz, what do yall have going for yall selves? NOTHING IF YALL WASTING YALL TIME COMPARING OPINIONS WHEN OPINIONS ARE NEITHER RIGHT NOR WRONG.

THIS WORLD IS FUCKED UP.

I used to be a Jay fan, and wasnt really on the Nas bandwagon. Then Ether dropped, and since then, no love for Gay Z.

Takeover was nice, it was a nail in the coffin for Nas, but Ether, is… genius.

It was such a brutal attack on Jay and just kicked his ass all around. Nas proving not only were his lyrics more powerful, but he had a flow and delivery that could match with Jay’s own. Not to mention the memorable hook “I. Will. Not. Lose”. Seems more classy and more powerful than “ROC, we running this, etc.”

The track was enough to take the most powerful rapper at that time, and raise doubts in the minds of even his fans, as to who was the real #1. Takeover was nice, Ether was immaculate.

There really is no comparison. Ether is, unequivocaly the greatest diss song to date.

reply to Focus:
saying all of NaS’ albums were garbage after illmatic/before stillmatic is NOT A FKING FACT. IT IS A MATTER OF OPINION. i think everyone just needs to know that.

Second, ‘went from Nasty NaS to esco’s trash’, and calling NaS a fake thug isn’t name calling?

Third:
KRS already made an album called blueprint
Jay-Z says he’s better than B.I.G
Rockerfeller’s death, and naming the label
made fun of his thin mustache

those are some of the call-outs i remember on Ether, and i provided more facts than you did on Takeover.

i’m pretty sure everyone was expecting NaS to lose when the Takeover was released, so why would people give him sympathy? if anything, it was compared to the jabs on Takeover.

You contradicted yourself in your second post. You presented the fact that NaS didn’t have a good album in 10 years, yet you say that I Am… is one of your fav. albums.

Jigga can’t come close to NaS in any aspect

oh and btw, anyone who creates an album close enough to the legendary status of Illmatic wouldn’t be able to work at burger king even if they tried ;)

yo real talk you can’t let someone with a more powerful career call you out and jsut except it, hip hoop is the most competitive shit int eh world i mean rick ross started the beef with 50 because of a dirty look at some awards…. like really mobley thats some faulty logic of course nas would have to write a full song, jay the biggest rapper at the time and calling out nas who did need to prove himself, but with this logic (no shots by the way) nas would win regardless because jay ended up writing two more disses towards nas while ether still held it own.

But its getting annoying fighting alone so imma change the subject Miles > thelonious

Well since the article is called “Takover Vs. Ether” i’ll make this short and sweet. Jay provoked Nas to write a WHOLE song about him and his crew from spitting one single FIRE verse about Nas. Everything Jay says in that verse is crack…and I can even remember pullin the car over laughin so hard when Jay was talkin bout the Karl Kani and Esco adds. I LOVE Nas…but Jay gets this. He brought a whole new meaning to “I’ll make you famous”.

I still can’t agree with you, you toss around “most people” like it means something, “most people” believe lil wayne is the best rapper alive, making that arguement bullshit, lyrics and flow are subjective, but in my opinoin it goes to nas, wordplay at their best, i give it to jay, when it comes to creating a message not jsut about black issues neither, i give it to nas, flows at their best my prefernce is nas, when they going 50% not giving a shit, i give it to jay.
at their points in their careers,
Illmatic > Reasonable doubt
It was written > Volume one
Volume 2 > I am
Volume Three > Nastradamous
Stillmatic > Blueprint
God’s Son > blueprint two
Black album > Street’s disciple
Hip hop is dead > kingdom come
Untitled > american gangster

Thats my opinoin, I’m sorry if i forgot some shit, but how are you going to say I am was a pop album and then not mention jay being making some pop songs. Jay put his style on exactly what was hot at the time, how are you going to say reasonable doubt wasn’t just biting all the great of the time coming from new york, it’s an incredible album, but the entire shit is formulated, thats why jay had the singles, also i know some of the shit i said with the albums can be flipped too for some of yall,
