***EDITOR’S NOTES***

This episode originally aired on YouTube on December 13th 2023. Another holiday inspired episode for Remember The Record with Christmas right around the corner we decided to go with the Carol of the Bells flow inspired Shoot ‘Em Up by Nas. This marks the first episode where we switched locations from Johnny Warbux’s spot to Kalashnikov Red’s to enhance the visual aesthetic of the show and for ease of Johnny’s family as well. We fix the audio levels of the musical backdrop this go round and continue trying to enhance the quality of the listening experience. We hope y’all enjoy the show and as usual, ask that you follow, rank & review our show as well as share it with other Hip-Hop heads in your life.

…Nas' Nastradamus: Revisited and Revived…

Welcome back, Corner Stoners! In our 13th installment of Remember the Record, Johnny Warbux and Kalashnikov Red dive deep into Nas' often overlooked album, Nastradamus, released on November 23, 1999. This episode is all about the hidden gem, "Shoot Em Up," a track that blends gangsta vibes with a surprising Christmas carol twist.

But before we get to the main event, Red and Johnny share their current musical obsessions, from lo-fi beats by Lonely Boy to Chicago's hip-hop scene. They also reminisce about the impact of Napster and the bootlegging era on Nas' career.

Join us as we dissect the lyrics, production, and cultural significance of "Shoot Em Up." We'll also explore Nas' broader discography, debating his top singles and deep cuts, and even imagining what could have been with collaborations like The Firm and Group Therapy. This episode is a must-listen for any Nas fan or hip-hop aficionado looking to appreciate the complexities and evolution of one of the greatest MCs of all time.
