Treats #90 - Nas' Columbia Records Illmatic Release Party Performance (1994)

Jay Swing — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 20:51:41 -0600

"Y'all ready for Nas? Y'all ready for Nasty Nas?!"

This is quite the Rap Treat - a recording of Nas performing at his Columbia Records' Illmatic album release party from 1994. Gems like this don't surface every day. Who ever is responsable for pressing record and then ripping it to digital 15+ years later I salute you. This is one of my favorite albums of all time, top 5 easy (although there are probably 20 albums or so in my top 5). Having the audio of Nas' performance is just crazy to me. Nas and crew run through a few cuts from the album including "Represent", "It Ain't Hard To Tell", "The World Is Yours", and "Life's A Bitch".

Slick Rick "Need Some Bad" (Produced by DJ Premier)

By now I'm sure you've figured out that NationOfMillions is on some vintage shit. Proud of it too. Its not too hard to find the new Drake, J Cole, or even wack ass Riff Raff record in blog world. With that said, here is some new shit from some vintage ass motherfuckers. If this was the early 90's I'd prolly bust a nut (seriously), but these two hooking up is better late than never. One of the greatest rappers ever teaming up with one of the greatest producers ever. And it goes a little something like this...

Treats #89 - Jay-Z & Kanye West's Watch The Throne Tour LIVE

Jay Swing — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 01:23:57 -0500

There are two concert this year that have me geeked out. The first is motherfucking Prince, and the very next night it is these two - Jay-Z & Kanye. That's right, Prince and Watch the Throne back to back. Throw in Pete Rock vs. Premier in town that same weekend and odds are I'm going to lose my fucking mind. Anyways, if you can't make (or afford) the Watch The Throne show then here is your fix - a recording of the whole concert from North Carolina. Hov & 'Ye Stans rejoice. 40+ songs. Cray!

ASAP Rocky - The Peso EP

jswing — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 23:31:56 -0500

If you check NationOfMillions then you've probably heard of ASAP Rocky. Not because we have been up on his music since day one, because we haven't (please accept our late pass). You are probably familiar with him because if you frequent this site then you know your shit. Like the previous post's topic, Jay Elect, ASAP Rocky is one of those artists that I am most def checking for. Dude isn't the baddest rapper to ever come out of Harlem, but his shit is just so fresh it doesn't matter. Just to bring you up to speed, here is a zip of 6 of his iller records. I call it The Peso EP but there is nothing official about it. A better title would probably be ASAP Rocky Songs That I Really Like, but The Peso EP just sounds better. If you are familiar already then there isn't much new here ("Peso" and "Trilla" are the newest records), but if ASAP Rocky is new to you then download this immediately! For everything ASAP check them out HERE.

Jay Electronica feat. Mobb Deep - Call Of Duty

jswing — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 23:08:52 -0500

Yes! This is what I'm talking about, or actually more correctly what I haven't been talking about. As you can tell new posts are far and few between around these parts. There are a lot of hot records and hot artists out today, but none of them make me want to run to the site and post their shit. Jay Electronica isn't one of those dudes. I'm a fan. Dude can rap. I don't mean a few hot 16's can rap, I mean he can fuck with the Nas', Jay-Z's, Andre 3000's of the game can rap. "Exhibit C" is still the best song that has come out in the past few years to me. This is why I ran to the site to post this new record featuring Mobb Deep. Enjoy!
