Before Twinz came out in 1998, the GOAT multi was when Nas said, "Then I rose/wiping the blunt's ash from my clothes/ and then froze/ only to blow the herb smoke through my nose."
This song was sick. The sample was jazzy with Xylophones but it had the steady boom bap drumbeat. The subject matter was street, it was a letter to his friend in jail. But the rhyming was intense and fast. He was squeezing in as many syllables as possible without going off beat or sounding like Twista.

Nas was serious,very confident not scared to be as real as possible
