#7 – #4

7. Alicia Keys feat Nas – Streets of NY

This is like an ode to his first song on his first album so it was easy for him to dominate even though it’s a track with Alicia’s vocals and a Rakim verse.

6. Kevin Rudolf feat Nas – NYC

Not an expected appearance, it fits because the song is about NYC. He reps the city hard in this pop/rock riff.

5. Amerie feat Nas – Why R U

This song has a very late 80′s or early 90′s RnB feel. They manage to keep this melodic and lovely even with all the other street rappers on this.

4. Lloyd feat Nas – You

This is kind of song you would love to listen to while on a trip with your girl or the perfect last song in the club. Andre crushed it and Nas put the finishing touches for a true classic.

#3 – #1

3. Cee lo feat Nas – Less Than An Hour

Shouldn’t these two just do an EP or album together? They make good lyric driven melody, this record have the soul of the 70′s with lyrics from the 90′s.

2. Gill Scott Heron – New York Is Killing Me

This is epic, his verse is on another level. Heron’s raspy voice and the clap static beat is perfect for Nas, he provided one of his best ode to NY verses.

1. Mariah Carey feat Nas – Thank God I Found You

Nas’ ad libs “Make it last, make it last” are enough to deem this a classic, but this song is perfect on all fronts (voices, melody, beats and content).
