Jay-Z and Nas

During the mid to late nineties and early two thousands, there were several major hitters in the game in NY. I wasn't there but I like to look into the history books. Just about the time when the "beef" between Tupac and Notorious B.I.G (Biggie) came to an end with their respective deaths in '96 and '97, New York's "Game of Thrones" (in the rap industry) was in the works.

At center stage was Jay-Z and Nas:

1997 Jay-Z  'Where I'm From'

*Apparently this track initiated tension with Prodigy from Mobb Deep

2001 Jay-Z  'Takeover'

*Aimed at Nas and Prodigy from Mobb Deep

2001 Nas  'H to the OMO' Stillmatic


2001 Nas 'Ether'



2001 Nas 'Got Urself a Gun'



2002 Jay-Z  'Supa Ugly'



2002 Jay-Z  'Blueprint 2'



2002 Nas 'Last Real Nigga Standin'
