Hmmmmm. Yea I think it could be Premo brehs. It’s either Premo or Dre unless there’s some crazy wildcard we’re missing.
my guess is a superproducer album. Nas definitely has a Swizz song. Nas can tap into a lot of networks and get whatever he wants especially after this project. I think everybody wanna see what Nas does with other producers and collabs.

Wherever nikkas need to be told on
The LIG v. KD discussion makes me realize how much I value not skipping tracks, track selection, and sequencing. I ain’t never felt that back-to-back combo of World’s An Addiction and Summer On Smash so that slows the momentum of LIG. Also, I always thought Triple Beam Dreams was clearly the best of those Ross-Nas collabos from 2012 so that’s always in the back of my head when I hear Accident Murderers. Then I think there’s a few tracks that ended up on LT2 that should’ve definitely made the cut for LIG. Nas was definitely in his bag in 2012. Prolific as ever. Among some of his best work. I just think the actual release had some miscues that knock it down a bit. Just my overly critical opinion. I don’t really have those same thoughts about KD, though, which helps to elevate how I feel about the album. I just hit play and that’s it. They’re neck and neck though in terms of how I rank Nas’s albums. Obviously I got to see how KD holds up over time but it’s a dope body of work.

My dream project would be a Black Album type record, done Kanye style. Remember when Kanye was making MBDTF and he invited all the producers+artists (including Nas) to Hawaii to record? Man I’d love for that to happen. Get Dre, Hit Boy, Premo, Just Blaze, Q-Tip, and whoever else lol. Fly them to Hawaii or Malibu and just chill, record, dig thru records etc. Covid prob means that’s impossible right now sadly lol.

Reading your post made me realize how much LIG makes me think, for better or worse. With KD I just throw it on and enjoy the ride.

Ita amazing that these young rappers can't get these older rappers out the paint


When
Nas

The older guard slowly chilled but they was still revered


But damn these 90's guys are still here killing it
