Some ones I never get sick of:

NY State Of Mind
Life's A Bitch
Hate Me Now
Ether
Got Ur Self a GUn
One Mic
The Cross
Made You Look
I Can
Thief's Theme
Hip Hop Is Dead
Can't Forget About You
Sly Fox
We're Not Alone

I suggest you listen to either God's Son or Stillmatic all the way through, to me those are his most universally likeable albums.

probably the whole illmatic stuff... other than this, here are some examples which imo make you get into him.

from it was written - The message; I gave you power

from god's son - get down; book of rhymes; the cross

from I am... - undying love ... etc etc

from stillmatic - one mic

these were of the top of my head :y: , there are a lot of great songs... nas has a strong discography :y:

Other than what's been mentioned:

Purple
Rise and Fall
Amongst Kings

Ah fuck it, basically the majority of the tracks that where left off the I Am double album, and most of the stuff on The Lost Tapes

Jesus, Nas has an unbelieavle catalogue, he's unreleased stuff is better than most rappers' album tracks (including his own ironically)
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified
