I felt like a man like Nas could have very interesting things to say about what he has learned from all his good and bad experiences. Hearing the lines about how he gets with many women and looking at his past history, I felt a little bit disappointed. Sidetracking a little bit, but I wish Nas did this in his new Kanye West album. In the year 444 AD, Attila the Hun built his compound along the Tisza River, which is now part of Hungary. Musician Jay-Z also released an album called 4:44 in 2017. 4:44 (Last Day on Earth) is a dystopian film from 2011 made by Abel Ferrara, and starring Willem Dafoe. Hell, many people have been using the term '4:44' to describe albums like this. 444 is a kind of British train, as well as a road in Oklahoma. Great album overall and I wouldn't be surprised if one day it is labeled as a classic. I feel honored to be apart of an era where Beyonce and Jay-Z can drop albums about their lives, and teach life lessons in the process.

And like I said, this is 'dad rap,' many of the things he raps on 4:44 about are his experiences he has learned as a black man throughout his life, and I feel like many of the older audiences who have also been through many things and have become more mature and experienced with age can appreciate what Jay-Z has to say. This Jay-Z album shows an old artist recognizing he's old and that he can't keep making the same music anymore and rapping about new things while seeking new sound. Roc Nation is a full-service entertainment company, inclusive of artist and athlete management, label, publishing, touring, film / TV and new ventures.

They also need to realize that their core audience have grown, some even growing out of their previous music.

Old artist need to realize that its okay to change their style without having to bite the current hip hop wave. I feel like this album is an example of 'dad rap' and will be notable in the future for being the first of these types of albums.
