Hiphopraisedmetheblog.com flashback of the day, comes from Queensbridge’s own Nasir Jones also known as Nasty Nas.

Ever since being introduced to the world on the posse cut “Live At The Bar-B – Q” Nas has always had the ability to catch the listener’s ear by saying iconic line’s such as……

"Street's disciple, my raps are trifle
I shoot slugs from my brain just like a rifle
Stampede the stage, I leave the microphone split
Play Mr Tuffy while I'm on some Pretty Tone shit
Verbal assassin, my architect pleases
When I was twelve, I went to hell for snuffing Jesus
Nasty Nas is a rebel to America
Police murderer, I'm causing hysteria"
