i heard this on MTV base for the first time yesterday and i was impressed cause it is tight
Nas is back... After dropping his "Illmatic 10th anniversary" album, Nas comes outta nowhere and drops his new single, "Thief's Theme". And let me tell you, it's hot. The beat kicks in with a blaring guitar riff, and Nas comes hard with a chorus that you may recognize from his '94 classic, "The World is Yours". Nas is one of the best lyrisists of all time, and he shows it in "Thief's Theme", along with some signature Nas flows. The best part is, he still has it, after 10 years in the rap game, he's still able to maintain the lyrical prowess that made him great. "Thief's Theme" could've been longer, but there's nothing wrong with short and sweet. Can't wait 'till the new album drops.
If you think the original song of THIEFS THEME is hot, I suggest you get the remix with BIG L. Big L, overshines NAS in this track. Even though it's an old BIG L verse, it's always good to hear his voice. Two legends at it. R.I.P Big L.
