This album is phenomenal in a lyrical sense. Black president incorporates a 2pac sample which compliments nas hopeful lyrics that barack obama will change america for the better. Hero feat keri hilson is the obvious single its got a commercial but the lyrics and vocals are so tight its a great first single.
My top track off the album is Fried chicken feat busta rhymes and produced by mark ronson. its a wicked beat which suits nas flow perfectly and bustas verse sets the whole track off its genius.
Were not alone is a superb song with vocals by mykel whos tone is beautiful and is a perfect backdrop for the production and nas tight lyrics. Its a step up from hip hop is dead...and proves HIP HOP IS NOT DEAD!!!
