Ep.73 - Jay-Z vs. Nas - You Traded Your Soul For Riches
On Ep.73 of DITD: With Jay-Z once again dropping something at the same time as Nas, we thought it's finally time to look back at the Nas/Jay-Z. Pre & Post-Ether/Takeover.
The Nas/Jay-Z beef is one of the most notable beefs in Hip-Hop history. But for some reason, nobody talks about how *deep* the beef actually goes, and how, depending on who you are, it is technically still going! On one side at least. It's a popular beef but below the surface, its certainly an odd and at times, grim one.
