Although everyone is always up on Nas' old work, this is one of my favorite tracks by him. Polow Da Don's tinkling synths play over a fat kick drum, and with a catchy chorus and Keri Hilson's vocals, I'm still surprised that this wasn't a bigger hit when it came out. Although not lyrically Nas' best offering, he still offers some great insight into the direction hip hop and pop music are headed, and the pressure labels puts on artists to churn out radio hits instead of quality, heartfelt music.
