I feel like you deserve to be banned for yr thought process. Haha.

So, I just listened to the Nas song you're talking about, it's a good example of what I said earlier.
Two notes played regularly: I suspect they are here so that no one can deny that this is music, based on an objective point of view.
In my experience, a note has no interest in itself:it makes sense only by the one that comes before, after or at the same time.
Maybe those two notes are tremendous to you: good for you.
Some bands are even more minimalist, like Cypress Hill, who only use one note, but I won't put a link now, cause I'm listening to Cows.
