Nas: "Drake Is Like Fresh Water"

In an interview with The Omaha-World Herald, Nasir says Aubrey is two parts hydrogen, one part oxygen.
So who is that guy for you? Who are you listening to?
Drake and always Scarface.
Why?
Drake is new. (He’s a rapper from Toronto.) He’s here to show anybody who questions him that he’ll get at you. He’s like fresh water right now on dry land. Scarface is the realist rapper. He’s the most musically serious, besides Kanye (West), right now. What Scarface says in his rhymes is real. You can’t get away from (Lil) Wayne right now. So that’s what I’m listening to. I’m waiting on Dr. Dre’s album.
Yeah, since 1999.

Who are you and what have you done with Guru? Seriously, we go from the emotional rollercoaster ride of thinkin' we're gonna lose one of the game's greatest MCs to some sick pathetic soap opera involving a man of no blood or kin relation denying family members the right to see their loved one. Now yes Keith Elam may not wanna reconcile with folks he hasn't been on good terms with for the past seven years but that's his decision not yours. From the outside lookin' in, you seem really shady. And if Guru's nephew claim is true that you signed documents as Keith Elam's brother and your wife as his sister than that's just plain alarming. An abuse of power. Releasing statements to websites and official Twitter accounts in Guru's name when he doesn't appear to be able to speak on his own behalf is also misleading and completely wrong. Be clear: At this point the only thing relevant and important is the status of Guru's health. Nobody gives a fuck about you or 7 Grand. Guru's legacy is Gang Starr. DJ Premier and Guru made classics. You and Guru make crap. And you should get slapped for meddling in family business.
I'm not dissin' but you shoulda stayed missing. Everybody in the club get tipsy. Nobody in the club remember your name. Damn shame.
I never thought i would hear nas say it… nas u still my favorite u bum ass. Drake sux azz
Nas u are one of the best rappers ever and no one can take that away from you. Peace and blessing

Wait wait wait
Nas NEVER said he was good. He said he is the most musically serious at the moment. Wayne is musically serious but Wayne isn’t really good.
And for being the fresh water right now, I agree. He is not doing southern music, has a different sound(though copies styles) and rhymes are somewhat decent.
All in all though, with the crap that people have been putting out in hip-hop recently, it doesn’t say much. This is in Nas’s defense, just actually looking at what he said.
When so much crap out today, decent stuff sounds great.
