Hip-Hop is dead. When guys like 50 Cent, Chamillionaire, and Lil' Wayne are considered the best in the game, you know there's a problem. They say hip-hop is dead. Nas is here to ressurect it.

I like Chamillionaire (not one of my favorites, but he's improved A LOT) with that being said he isn't some kind of mind blowing lyricist...but yeah I'm lookin forward to the new Nas (like always)
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Brian:</div><div class="quote_post">why do you hate chamillionaire and lil wayne so much? sure, they may not be the best, but their music is still entertaining</div> I like classics and unfortunately, those two will never be recognized as one of hip-hop's best after their careers are over. Their not great lyricists and their songs lack substance. The newest rapper I can listen to is Papoose, but that's about it.

This album is gonna be crazy, that titles hot. Im really looking forward to this album, Streets Disciples was good but it didn't really blow up, I think this album will put Nas back on the map. And plus with that album title, the songs must be hot.
The first single off Nas's "Hip Hop Is Dead" is "Where Ya'll At" Its really good. The beats nice, but whats makes this song special is Nas's lyrics his flow sounds like illmatic Nas. I hope the rest of the album is as good as this song.
You also know its dead when Nas is working with Will.i.Am or w.e. the hell his name is, and Michael Jackson on a hip hop album.
