Doc Zeus rocks Roberto Cavalli/no shirt on/convertible Mazy I can’t get past that cover. Here is an accomplished man, impeccably tailored with the watch and liquor to match, sequestered in the back room of a lavish night club. He sits lonesome. A green wedding dress has been carefully laid across his lap while he stares off intently into the distance. The phrase, “Life Is Good,” is written in an elegant script below his designer shoes. as if to suggest some bitter irony about the direction his life has gone. At first glance, it's [...]

"Loco-Motive" may be something like the hundredth leak that's dropped in advance of Nas ' newest effort Life Is Good (due July 17th), but, like everything that has been previewed from the set so far, the record continues to find the rapper sounding like he's on the verge of dropping a "five mic" killer. Boasting credits that include No I.D. on production and Large Professor as hook hype-man, and finding Nasir effortlessly slinging evocative lyrical illustrations of his hard knock New York come-up that make descriptions of chowing down [...]

We have heard a bunch of tracks off the upcoming Nas record, Life is Good , but today sees the record’s best release to date in “Loco-Motive”. Over a grim piano-laden beat by No ID, Nasir gets his angry face on and just rhymes and rhymes and rhymes. He closes by stating “for my trapped in the 90’s niggas”, which possibly could please the fans of his Illmatic days. I really love everything about this, besides the 42nd Street terminal shout out. That place just sucks. Life is Good will [...]

Well this is an all-star lineup if I've ever seen one. Nas grabs Large Professor for "Loco-Motive" which is produced by the legendary No I.D.

The leaks from Nas' impending LP Life As Good are coming thick and fast. That can only mean one thing; we're under a month and counting until what is easily my most anticipated hip hop album of this year hits the shelves. Actually, on second thoughts, it more likely means that it's under two weeks until some underling leaks Life Is Good in its entirety.
