The (It Was Written) project was rapper Nas' 2nd studio album, released July 2nd 1996.
It consists of timeless lyrics which is very important when reviewing a project, especially when the tape is from back in the 90s.
In my opinion this is one of Nas’ best albums even though he shows his true lyricism on a real level in every one of his tapes.
I find this project really polished him up as a rap legend it’s no question his legacy will never be forgotten with all these straight bangers he put on wax throughout his career.
I’ll conclude with the fact that Nas is probably the best rapper alive, he is definitely underrated & I would recommend a listen if you’re into street style gansta rap or need tunes to lift to.
This album really paints the picture of his personal experiences with gang related activities in the streets, although it didn’t sell much off the bat; over 3.5 million copies were sold.
