New Nas " Your Droog" EP ??? 10 tracks ,using alter ego ???

Postby King Lance » Jun 13th, '14, 03:26

On June 3rd, an unknown rapper by the name of Your Old Droog uploaded an EP on soundcloud. For an artist with no previous work, it was outstanding ,the production was good, his voice was raspy, and he sounded hungery to tear up the mic. As I delved deeper into it things started to get a little fishy.

His flow is very similar to Nas, their voices are similar, they both give the same "old wise rap legend" feel. Throughout the EP, the rapper makes numerous references to thing's in Nas' life from mentioning Illmatic to Nardwuaar interviews to him describing his failed love with a "singer chick".

Theres some obvious connections. In the song Gunsmoke Cologne, he mentions he plans to make 4 more albums. A 'new artist' who hasn't made any albums is speaking about releasing more "albums" as if he has already released a few.

On April 10, 2013, Mass Appeal magazine was revived as American rapper Nas ventured into the business of magazing publishing. As a businessman and investor, he invested an undisclosed six figure sum into the magazine, where he will serve as the publication's associate publisher

Either Mass Appeal editors are sifting through every new soundcloud account looking for talent or someone (like Nas) told them to post about it

Yo, is it really him? :D
"There's darkness closing in, here it comes again
It controls my pen, that ain't me, it's my evil twin
(I step out and see my evil twin, he gives me an evil grin)
He's just a friend who pops up now and again
So don't blame me, blame him, my evil twin
(I step out and see my evil twin, he gives me an evil grin)"

Those beats are great, proper stripped down, minimal shit

It might not be Nas, can't imagine this being some rookie, though
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified

I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.
