Nas is overrated, but he writes good lyrics:

"I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death"

One of the greatest lyricists EVER

I am not really a fan of Nas or Jay Z, but they are both obviously major contributors to the game. They wouldn't be in MY personal hop hop hall. Obviously a yes vote.
