Nas feat. The Game - Hustlers (QB True G) (Produced by Dr. Dre)

Nas feat. The Game - QB True G (Produced by Dr. Dre)( Clean) (Dirty)
More evidence that Hip-Hop Is Dead is our last hope left for an exceptional rap album this quarter.

UPDATE: Contrary to earlier reports, “Hustlers” (aka QB True G’s) will be on the final version of Hip-Hop Is Dead. A Def Jam insider confirmed this to me earlier today. According to my source, the track was renamed after Marsha Ambrosius was brought in to deliver the chorus.

i agree with the first commenter, the track is flames indeed

4. Nana Says:

Dre and Game on nas album but no Dre on Game album? wtf?

5. Rizoh Says:

Yeah, this shit bangs. I wonder if Dre recorded it in studio with Game though. Must have been a weird moment.

6. dandy Says:

did nas write game’s verse?

7. Rizoh Says:

^You’re reaching. lol

8. Emmanuel Says:

Yo all 3 rip it up on here…Sh*t is banging! Thanks Riz!!!!!!

PS I think Dre and Game worked together on Game’s album; at least partially or indirectly through intermediates. There is no way Dre is releasing this song, with all his power and have Game on it, if he really did have beef with Game. I’am almost positive that Dre would have a heavy say whether to release this track or not, there is only one Dr. Dre in Hip hop…Nuff said.

AASDAHGHHHAHAHHHAHAHAHA

yes

10. Emmanuel Says:

lmao! i actually just read my comment and I caught a mistake, there is actually 2 Dr. Dre’s in Hip Hop, the other being Ed Lovers sidekick. i had a timeline relapse there.

14. Ivan Says:

It reminds me of Busta, Tip & Marsha’s “Get You Some”’s hook: Money, cars, clothes…

Nas: Hustlers, dealers, drop-tops….

…anyone feel me?

….it’s still a heatrock though…

15. Rizoh Says:

Team OnSmash always coming through with the heat. Props!

16. DJ Raida Says:

This dropping now suggests to me it wont be on the album, which is beyond dissapointing, i hope im wrong, this is crazy, aint really feeling the hook though

RD- what was the hook like originally?

17. Team OnSMASH Says:

I Think It Was Just The Game And Nas Going Back Part Without Marsha… They Just Added Marsha..

This Shit Is Heat & Should Make The Album..

18. RD Says:

Yeah, exactly…there was no Marsha on the original.

19. The Last Skeptik Says:

is ok… maybe a grower.. i still think Dres best beat recently was on Lost Ones..

20. Enigmatik Says:

dope, dope track. the past month or so has restored my faith in hip-hop.

21. DAYNE Says:

I KNOW WAS HAPPY. I BET DRE DIDN’T EVEN KNOW GAME WAS GOING TO BE ON TRACK IF HE DID HE WOULDN’T HAVE DID IT.

GAME IS A LAME SORRY.

22. DAYNE Says:

^^^^^I MEANT TO SAY GAME WAS HAPPY

23. Adam M. Donahue Says:

Dre and 50 Cent are behaving like idiots business-wise. Even with his “measly” gold album’s worth in sales, it was stupid to let The Game go. Add Dre and 50 to the mix, and that album goes 2x platinum.

That said, *poof* goes Doctor’s Advocate from this week’s Soundscan…..

Hip-hop *is* dead, because we’re all tired of this shit.

And Jay-Z’s album - pure rubbish - tops the charts. There are two decent tracks on that album — Lost One and Kingdom Come — and one was a MySpace hand out.

24. Rizoh Says:

^True words.

Jay’s album is a flop, considering the amount of marketing/promotion that went in.

25. esbee Says:

Yup..I really think Jay set the stage for Nas’s album do excellently well.

This album will end up being critically acclaimed.

I disagree @ Adam. 50 & Dre are still making money off of Game’s album..

26. Rizoh Says:

^No, they’re not. Game is not on Aftermath or G-Unit.

27. Adam M. Donahue Says:

Let’s assume they still are making money. I don’t know: The Game clearly has a legion of fans, regardless of one’s opinion on his rather unorthodox (and tired, to some) themes. With Dre at his back I bet it could have done at least twice what it did the first week. What do you think?

But here’s what gets me: Dre isn’t exactly putting out a slew of records. How many Aftermath releases have we had this year, again? Busta’s album didn’t even clear a million, and it was hyped beyond belief.

I guess what I’m saying is that rappers like The Game and Lil’ Wayne are fresh, fun - whereas the Jay-Z’s, even the 50 Cent’s, are almost aged at this point. (I am very curious to see how 50’s next album will do given the precipitous decline in album sales this year.)

That reminds me: does anyone have a list of the year’s first week top 10 sales, listed by week? I’m curious to see how hip-hop did, initial impact wise, this year.

28. Adam M. Donahue Says:

Here’s a barometer: I used to get hyped up with a release, as little as two years ago - I’d jump on and pump anything from the Neptunes, Dre, Eminem, 50, Jay, Ghostface, even lesser-known artists. These days it takes a lot more to get me excited about music. Me, Mr. buy-10-records-a-week, has even stopped that weekly purchase habit. I buy maybe one CD a month now, if that.

Why? What has changed? I’m trying to figure that out. It’s not just the availability of mp3’s: I’ve been downloading *and* buying for years. There’s something else. Taste maybe? Or maybe hip-hop has just gotten so unoriginal it’s hard to keep an interest. Listen to a song from five years ago, and then one day, and tell me how much has changed? Then compare to just ten years ago … or fifteen. Look at the growth there.

FUCKIN FLAMES DOG

30. Rizoh Says:

I agree with Adam. That explains why record sales have been alarmingly low this year.
