Tony Yayo shared his thoughts on Nas’s career trajectory prior to the release of his pivotal album, "Stillmatic." The conversation stems from ongoing debates about whether Nas had lost his edge before making a striking comeback with "Stillmatic." DJ Vlad initiated the discussion by referencing J. Cole's approach to industry beefs, portraying Cole as a humble figure in the hip-hop scene who avoids unnecessary confrontations. This anecdote served as a segue into a broader discussion about various diss tracks in hip-hop history, including Jay-Z's "Super Ugly," which was directed at Nas. Tony Yayo further highlighted the importance of humility in the industry, drawing parallels to J. Cole’s low-key lifestyle despite his success. The interview veered into a poll Vlad conducted about disappointing diss tracks, suggesting that public perception often shifts.
