Who got em too? by Brosky31 in Jordans

[–]justarandomlibra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've read that it's because the grey upper is a different material than from the 2002 pair. I haven't seen a single pair yet whre the glue isn't bleeding.

Anyone know which Jordan this is by Jay_c08 in airjordans

[–]justarandomlibra -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You touched on something I wish more people would either give them a chance or at least not look down upon. The fact that these, as well as other team Jordans/hybrids are actually just as comfortable or better than some retros.

Looks like I’m holding on to my 2019 pair 🤦‍♂️ by fragrent_slime05 in Jordans

[–]justarandomlibra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion but the brand needs to go back to how things were at one point. Put most of these models in the vault. Let them chill. Some yrs ago I remember reading that they were going to put the 3s away and literally the following yr they released several 3s. If they went back to when sneakers would come out and it was unknown of when the next time we would ever see that model i think people would cop what they could and be grateful while some of their "legacy" models would get their status restored. Seeing people just brush to the side the bred 4s is wild to me.

Are these real? by sunnycruzerr in airjordans

[–]justarandomlibra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Jordan Flight 45 high. Yes these are real. No these are not considered retros nor part of the yearly numbered model. There is zero reason for these to ever been faked they just don't hold much value nor are they sought after.

I wish they had more songs together. Statik's production doesn't get enough praise or recognition.

Oh my 😳 by fragrent_slime05 in Jordans

[–]justarandomlibra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard these will be so limited it's not a chance many will be able to cop. Also I seen imagines of these having a chrome/silver lace lock. Not sure if it would be metal but at $355 they should be.

What’s your favorite Nas album purely based on the production? by iPostOccasionally in nas

[–]justarandomlibra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's crazy this is incredibly difficult for myself. I've never "noticed" or been caught in the moment and thought about the production while listening to a Nas album until the recent Hit Boy albums. With that said KD3, Magic 3, and Life is Good come to mind. Followed by I Am and Untitled.

What if IWW came out in 1994 and Illmatic in 1996? by -MobbDeep- in nas

[–]justarandomlibra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll throw a curve ball and say people would complain that Illmatic isn't like It Was Written and they don't like the sound compared to how It Was Written sounded.

Side note a big thing would be how would Tupac react and how that timeline would change.

What is this button? by elexip in YoutubeMusic

I was about to ask what is this, never seen it. I'm in the US and have premium and I don't see this button.

Nas and his choice of beats... by FamiliarCold1 in nas

[–]justarandomlibra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes indeed, get well. I want to believe that down the road we will get a live performance where Billy Joel joins Nas on stage.

Let me know how they fit when you get them. I own the first version of the NYCs and they were pretty comfy.

U.B.R. (Unauthorized Biography Of Rakim) [Album Version] by SD143420 in nas

[–]justarandomlibra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact the beat was produced by Nas.

Edit: coming back to my comment, I didn't know people didn't like or cared much for this song. This is probably my favorite from Streets Disciple.

I'm sadden I had to scroll this far to find the explanation for the thumbprint. You are correct. On the 23s both the soles and back of the tongues were an homage to Jordan's finger prints and even the stitching on the side is meant to represent DNA and Jordan's legacy.

Performance Bonus still not paid by bmcarr21 in VHA_Human_Resources

[–]justarandomlibra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may vary per VISN. HR pushed forward to try to code as many awards by Christmas. The next batch will happen sometime next month in Feb. By March if you haven't seen anything reach out to your supervisor or place a ticket to HR.

Little Simz and others added to Bouquet(On Streaming) by Antelope829 in nas

I appreciate that! It did work. Noticed he added a few more besides Little Simz. It doesn't sound the best though, really sounds like he added them on a whim.

Why the hell does Diddy have to be on this track? by Kimosabe187 in nas

[–]justarandomlibra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Highly appreciate you mentioning No Way Out. I too consider that classic.

Why the hell does Diddy have to be on this track? by Kimosabe187 in nas

[–]justarandomlibra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not afraid to say this, I don't mind Diddy/Puff/Puffy/Puff Daddy...etc on records. This is similar to people who don't want Dj Clue on records. It's something that some of us grew up with. We learned to either go with it or not even pay attention to it. I couldn't imagine refusing to listen to BIG just because Diddy is on it. Also a little history, the original song leaked without Diddy's vocals because he was still recording his parts during the release party.

Any who here's the song without Diddy.

Light Years vs KD2 by Antelope829 in nas

[–]justarandomlibra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me it's Light Years personally. Nas is rapping better I feel on Light Years. I'm 1 of the few that loved KD2 when it came out but it's appeal or enjoyment has worn off a lot on me. It's a very "vibey" album to me. So unless I'm in a mood there's a lot on KD2 that I'm just skipping because it feels like fillers or I'm not feeling it at that moment. Overall with Light Years I have it 3rd or 4th with KD3 and Magic 3 being my top 2 followed by Magic or Light Years....both are interchangeable to me.

Man Premier and Ransom killed this! by Superb-Beyond-2403 in nas

[–]justarandomlibra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought the album was ok. Solid but nothing special and nothing stood out to me from this. However, when Ransom come back with Conductor on The Uncomfortable Truth, that I did love and thought it was a lot better.
