Our Take
Album Review: Nas - It Was Written Nas, the legendary lyricist from Queensbridge, returns with his sophomore album "It Was Written" and boy, does he deliver. This time around, Nas incorporates a more commercial sound, blending his trademark intricate storytelling with catchy hooks and polished production. The album kicks off with the smooth and soulful "The Message," setting the tone for what's to come. Nas' lyrical prowess shines through on tracks like "Street Dreams" and "I Gave You Power," where he effortlessly weaves vivid tales of street life and inner turmoil. One of the standout tracks on the album is "If I Ruled the World (Imagine That)," featuring Lauryn Hill. The infectious beat and uplifting message make it a surefire hit that will have you nodding your head and feeling empowered. But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "It Was Written." Nas delves into darker territory with tracks like "Take It in Blood" and "Silent Murder," showcasing his introspective side and lyrical dexterity. Overall, "It Was Written" is a solid follow-up to Nas' groundbreaking debut album, "Illmatic." While some fans may prefer the raw grittiness of his first offering, there's no denying the quality and creativity that Nas brings to the table on this album. So grab your headphones, press play, and let Nas take you on a journey through the highs and lows of life in the streets of New York. Cheers to Nas for another classic in the bag.
