Era pressoché impossibile dare un seguito a un terremoto come Illmatic, primo album di Nas. Dopo aver descritto per dritto e per rovescio i tormenti e le delusioni del suo ambiente di Queensbridge su nove pezzi condensati, il prodigio Nas non poteva che diventare una mega star mondiale a soli 22 anni. Aprendo la sua cerchia di produttori a The Trackmasters e Dr. Dre, Nas rende la sua musica più accessibile e meno codificata. Mescolando il suono di strada a una narrazione mafiosa e a un discorso sociale sulla condizione degli afro-americani, il rapper di Queensbridge trova la sua formula di equilibrista tra purista e cultura pop. Con l’enorme successo di “If I Ruled The World” al fianco di una Lauryn Hill in stato di grazia, Nasir Jones diventa con “It Was Written” la figura del rapper americano perfetto agli occhi di tutto il mondo. Le sue storie sono sempre pertinenti e torbide, piene di immagini indelebili. In collaborazione con i suoi contemporanei e amici Mobb Deep, Live Squad, AZ o Cormega, la precisione e la lucidità di Nasir Jones restano intatte sebbene risultino leggermente più diluite rispetto al primo opus. Con momenti forti come “The Message”, “Take It In Blood” o “I Gave You Power”, Nas diventa una voce ineguagliabile che lancia parole incisive, un autentico eroe emblema di tutto uno stile musicale. © Aurélien Chapuis/ Qobuz

Approfondimenti
Era pressoché impossibile dare un seguito a un terremoto come Illmatic, primo album di Nas. Dopo aver descritto per dritto e per rovescio i tormenti e le delusioni del suo ambiente di Queensbridge su nove pezzi condensati, il prodigio Nas non poteva che diventare una mega star mondiale a soli 22 anni. Aprendo la sua cerchia di produttori a The Trackmasters e Dr. Dre, Nas rende la sua musica più accessibile e meno codificata. Mescolando il suono di strada a una narrazione mafiosa e a un discorso sociale sulla condizione degli afro-americani, il rapper di Queensbridge trova la sua formula di equilibrista tra purista e cultura pop. Con l’enorme successo di “If I Ruled The World” al fianco di una Lauryn Hill in stato di grazia, Nasir Jones diventa con “It Was Written” la figura del rapper americano perfetto agli occhi di tutto il mondo. Le sue storie sono sempre pertinenti e torbide, piene di immagini indelebili. In collaborazione con i suoi contemporanei e amici Mobb Deep, Live Squad, AZ o Cormega, la precisione e la lucidità di Nasir Jones restano intatte sebbene risultino leggermente più diluite rispetto al primo opus. Con momenti forti come “The Message”, “Take It In Blood” o “I Gave You Power”, Nas diventa una voce ineguagliabile che lancia parole incisive, un autentico eroe emblema di tutto uno stile musicale. © Aurélien Chapuis/ Qobuz
