Sometimes, as a fan of an artist, I wonder how the artist get to where they are today. I'm sure a few people feel the same. As you should know, NaS is my favorite MC of all time. NaS' career has been filled with many great releases from Illmatic to his untitled album formally known as "Nigger." VH1 released a documentary about his life as part of their Driven series. The episode aired sometime after 2004.

NaS told his story many times before, but "Surviving The Times" (from his Greatest Hits album) is a true reflection on this life.
This is a promo video for his first album Illmatic:
I do believe that NaS is the greatest of all time. But, I don't think everything that he puts out is the best. His untitled album was great, but I don't think it is the best album of this year (that goes to T.I.'s Paper Trail as of right now). The Nigger Tape was great as well, but I don't think it is the best mixtape of this year (that goes to KiD CuDi's a KiD named CuDi as of right now).
NaS continues to set the bar high for other Rappers and MCs. He will be remembered and etched in history for forever.
