En un momento en el que el hip-hop de la costa este se tomaba cada vez menos en serio que sus hom\u00f3logos de la costa oeste, la producci\u00f3n cruda de jazz y soul de Illmatic, su atm\u00f3sfera y sus letras espantosas, junto con el flujo intransigente de Nas, fueron fundamentales para restaurar el inter\u00e9s en la costa este como un semillero del hip-hop. Junto con lanzamientos clave de Wu-Tang Clan y Notorious B.I.G., desvi\u00f3 la atenci\u00f3n del G-funk funky basado en sintetizadores diurnos que sal\u00eda de California y volvi\u00f3 a las sucias calles de Nueva York. Despu\u00e9s de un disco debut sin precedentes, las expectativas eran comprensiblemente altas para el seguimiento de Nas.<br \/>Lo que vino despu\u00e9s sorprendi\u00f3 a cr\u00edticos y fans, pero no fue menos influyente que Illmatic, y se convertir\u00eda en el \u00e1lbum de mayor \u00e9xito comercial del siglo. La continuaci\u00f3n de su segundo a\u00f1o de 1996 se titul\u00f3 It Was Written y, en contraste con la desolaci\u00f3n urbana de su debut, Nas se sumergi\u00f3 en el mundo del rap mafioso. En medio de la producci\u00f3n como Trackmasters, Dr. Dre, LES, Havoc of Mobb Deep y DJ Premier, colaborador de Illmatic, entre otros, Nas teje narrativas evocadoras de guerras de pandillas, vecindarios oprimidos, negocios de drogas que salieron mal y triunfo gangsta, contra un tel\u00f3n de fondo de muestras de Sam Cooke, Etta James, los Isley Brothers e incluso Chuck Mangione.<br \/>It Was Written tampoco fue dif\u00edcil para los invitados de primer nivel, con la participaci\u00f3n de invitados importantes de Lauryn Hill y Joel \u00abJoJo\u00bb Hailey de K-Ci &#038; JoJo. Tambi\u00e9n present\u00f3 al mundo The Firm, el breve supergrupo liderado por Nas que incluye a los raperos AZ, Foxy Brown y Cormega. Incluso logr\u00f3 causar una peque\u00f1a controversia en la comunidad hip-hop por su colaboraci\u00f3n con el productor de la costa oeste, Dr. Dre, en un momento en que la disputa por el rap entre la costa este y la costa oeste estaba alcanzando un punto \u00e1lgido, atrayendo brevemente la ira de un tal Tupac Shakur.<br \/>It Was Written no solo fue recibido calurosamente por la cr\u00edtica, sino que se convirti\u00f3 en un gran \u00e9xito comercial, alcanzando la cima de las listas Billboard 200, alcanzando el estado de ventas de platino cuatro veces y, junto con \u00e1lbumes como Only Built 4 Cuban Linx de Raekwon, ayud\u00f3 a marcar el comienzo de la era del rap mafioso en el mainstream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Illmatic, el debut de estudio de Nasir \u00abNas\u00bb Jones en 1994, fue m\u00e1s que un simple \u00e9xito de cr\u00edtica para el rapero de Queensbridge.

It also introduced the world to The Firm, the brief Nas-led supergroup featuring rappers AZ, Foxy Brown, and Cormega. It even managed to cause some minor controversy in the hip-hop community for its collaboration with West Coast producer Dr. Dre, at a time when the East Coast\/West Coast rap feud was reaching a fever pitch, briefly attracting the ire of one Tupac Shakur.Not only was It Was Written received warmly by critics, but became a major commercial success, reaching the top of the Billboard 200 charts, reaching platinum sales status four times, and alongside albums like Raekwon's Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, helped usher in the era of mafioso rap in the mainstream. It rendered chart hits out of singles like the Eurhythmics-mimicking \"Street Dreams\", and the Grammy-nominated \"If I Ruled The World (Imagine That)\", and proved to be a major influence on artists like Kendrick Lamar, Lupe Fiasco, and many more.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/producto\/it-was-written-del\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"es","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/producto\/it-was-written-del\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"es","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/producto\/it-was-written-del\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/46758.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/46758.jpg","width":243,"height":241},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/producto\/it-was-written-del\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Inicio","item":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Shop","item":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/shop\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"It Was Written (DEL)"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#website","url":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/","name":"Guerssen records","description":"psychedelia - progressive - folk - garage ","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"es"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#organization","name":"Guerssen records","url":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"es","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Logo_Guerssen_trans_100.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Logo_Guerssen_trans_100.png","width":122,"height":100,"caption":"Guerssen records"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"}}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/249869","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/250113"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=249869"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=249869"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=249869"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=249869"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
