i especially hate when nas informs me that "the history of music is on this track"

yeah dude.. the song is good in concept, but it's just straight up pretentious.. and that ridiculous little orchestral build-up between the chorus and the verse makes me shake my head everytime i hear it.

What's wrong with you people? Bridging The Gap is an excellent song, and the beat for it is probably one of the most impressive of the last 5 years. I like the way it sounds like there's a slight time signature change during the verses, and the way it slows down during the chorus. Sure, it's a little pretentious and the lyrics aren't incredible or anything, but it's original and pushes things forward a bit. And it's not like they sampled Bad To The Bone or something, which is what people keep saying; it's just your standard blues riff, which gives it that timeless quality.

can I get a link to the "Don't Merk Yourself" track, because I looked and I'm not finding it around easily.

I think 'bridging the gap' is alright. it's certainly not like its a recycled concept; I've never heard blues-rap before, maybe Everlast.

[EN[i]GMA]

Bridging the Gap's beat isn't that good.

Maybe original, but not really that good.

[Vladimir]

my thoughts exactly

[roosta]

anyway, back to "DOnt Merk Yourself"

i like the line:
"They say Jada defeated him, Joe too street for him/what’s next? I guess its for Nas to ether him"

that bizarre slowed down singing in the chorus is a bit odd.
