Nas Says None Of The New Rappers Are 'Keeping Him Up At Night'

Nas Says None Of The New Rappers Are ‘Keeping Him Up At Night’

There have been lots of criticism on the current state of hip-hop, with many people saying that everything nowadays sounds similar. Recently, Aries Spears called out NBA YoungBoy, Lil Baby and Quando Rondo for sounding the same.

“How is it that y’all don’t get bored with the current state of Hip Hop and what y’all are doing to rap? When everything sounds the same. The melodies, the same. The beats, the same,” he said.

It appears Rap icon, Nas , stands with those folks, enjoying the new music but agreeing that it doesn’t hold much weight in the grand scheme of things.

Nas commented on the state of rap music and, from his remarks, you can see that he’s not really too fond of what’s been coming out recently.

“I appreciate what’s out there, but there’s no one keeping me up at night,” said Nas when asked about his opinion on contemporary rap. “I hear a new rap record and think it’s great, but I don’t listen to it the next week.”

The veteran did name one artist that impressed him, name-dropping Pop Smoke as somebody that was doing special things for the culture.




“We were happy to see that young king come up,” said Nas about Pop. “He was a breath of fresh air. The drill movement in London, Chicago and New York is really exciting.”
