With a new album on the way, why not take a look back at "Made You Look," one of GOAT contender Nas' illest joints? The third track off God's Son finds the Queens rapper going in over a Salaam Remi beat, channeling the streets he was raised on. Back when this dropped, Nas was riding a pretty legitimate second wind, cruising off the momentum of critically acclaimed back-to-back albums Stillmatic & God's Son. "Made You Look" dominated the music video scene, and spawned an epic remix with Jadakiss & Ludacris.
For all ya'll who have been sleeping on Nas, add this one to your playlist. It's a great look at some of his best post-Illmatic prime material, and still bumps to this day.
Quotable Lyrics
I see niggas runnin', yo, my mood is real rude
I lay you out, show you what steel do
Mobsters don't box, my pump shot obliges
Every invitation to fight you punk-asses
Like Pun said: you ain't even en mi clasa
Maybach Benz, back seat, TV plasma
