Nas Is Already ‘Halfway Through’ His Next Album With Hit-Boy

[boogers]

Then listen to something else

i do, lol

i just wish nas would adopt a quality over quantity mindset. most of his new music is great, but he's dropping LPs left and right

just my 2c tho. like krs said records come and go and get collected

 

[Artificial Intelligence]

Nikka I can divide

 

[DontEemTry]

i gotta be honest, im completely oversaturated with nas

If you know the history this statement sounds super wild

 

[JYoung24]

I agree with that and I would put Al and Metro ahead of Hit on the current produers list but my whole thing is if you're gonna want him to get with a producer who does different styles hes already with one.

And hes the one who knows Nas as an artist and has time for him vs just sending a beat tape for him to rap over. If theres anything to point to what may have fatigued this album is that Hit's been working on a lot past year including his dad's stuff and that may have contributed to the beats not progressing. Metros super busy working with a lot of people and Al too and they dont have to prove anything like Hit did in 2020.

I just dont know if hes gonna abandon Hit for guys who might be better but may give him the same results unless they can committ to working with him.

Metro isn't a better producer then hit

 

[Cladyclad]

Metro isn't a better producer then hit

 

[Nighthawk]

Imma nas fan but These hit boy albums are trash. No thanks

 

[I'm Blackman]

i gotta be honest, im completely oversaturated with nas

what you mean?

 

[ABlackMan]

You telling me you have multiple systems, and none of them are good enough for you to hear the difference in low end of the drums between the two videos?

I think what you meant to say is "I don't mind the mix." Which is cool, that's your opinion.

No I definitely can hear that lol that’s obvious. I was under impression y’all didn’t or don’t appreciate the final product.


They definitely took some of the exiting boom off but it sounds great bruh

 

[Yagirlcheatinonus]

I mean your fans wanted a Premo album

 

[Renegade47]

please no more

 

[Renegade47]

Metro isn't a better producer then hit

yes he is by miles.

 

[Ziggiy]

yes he is by miles.

Nah

 

[Renegade47]

Nah

hit boy does not have his own distinct sound.

and his beats are bland as hell.

I think Nas dropping all of this music the last few years actually humanized him in the eyes of some of these bloggers and writers and ish...I kinda suspected that was gonna happen. Nas is on Mount Olympus in this rap thing, he's in rarefied air...so for him to step down from way up there and mix and mingle and work like the commoners may have took away some of his allure for some people.

Him always getting ranked 3rd on these lists, after giving us a career's worth of music in the last 2 years alone, is the evidence imo. Behind Biggie? Behind Kendrick Lamar? Meanwhile Jigga aint doing a damn thing but counting money and he's always #1, lol. That "mystique" and rarity adds to how they view you man. Law 16, use absence to increase honor and respect.

I don’t see that. For every Complex (which have always thrown shots at Nas) there’s an NME, which has given him two perfect score reviews (Kings Disease 2 and 3) He’s won and performed at the Grammys. Sold out Madison Square Garden. Been inducted into the Billboard Hall Of Fame. Been on the cover of GQ. If he was absent for all of this it wouldn’t help him whatsoever in anybody’s ranking. Complex doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things when he’s selling out MSG with NEW material. When he’s bringing out Lauryn Hill at Yankee Stadium performing a NEW song. Winning Grammys off a NEW album.
