Nas - King’s Disease (Discussion Thread)

[John Mexico]

only weird thing I caught on my Shure headphones (finally gave this album some burn on a quality source) is that Nas sounds like Game impersonating Nas on 10 Points, lol

 

[Piff Perkins]

Most frustrating thing about this album is that we won't get to see it live anytime soon. Man I hope Nas does one of those NPR live things because this album has so much MUSICAL potential in terms of being played by a live band. Imagine Ultra Black with a band.


Or the intro, Car 85, 10 Points, The Cure...I'd love to hear those in an intimate environment like NPR, or a late night show like Jimmy Kimmel.

fukk the Nasir hating narrative.

The God is having his third Renaissance with Nasir, Lost Tapes 2 and King’s disease.

I ran all three back to back and was thoroughly satisfied.

2 of them nikkas I don't even understand. In any capacity. But the list makes sense to based on what kind of emcee Royce is and what he values in an emcee.

If Nas isn't at the least number 5 on ur list u got bad taste lol
I don't care who it is so that's what I'm chalking it up to with
Royce.

Like Iman, she beautiful, goin ultra black

the somali queen

Man the production on this album is so good man.
Hit-Boy knew a Blue Benz and the Cure was classic Nas
but gave him some 2020 classic stuff too.
I'd imagine it's going to be some rappers calling him
up and telling him they trying to lock in for a full project.

Word Nasir mght have been a little underwhelming based on hype and potential but it isn't bad by any stretch. Simple Things is such a beautiful joint.

 

[the cool]

simple things and 27 summers are both mad disspointing in that they are so short

 

[up in here]

You gotta love Queens rappers. Through all the drama and beefs, QU is like a big ass family.

 

[InstantKlassik]

Blue Benz brehs

on my 1000th listen

 

[JustCKing]

Silent Murder is the true IWW closer.

It sounds better in the order on the cassette.

 

[JustCKing]

Cool!

I'm tempted to edit it and make that the cover for Nasir in my iTunes.

 

[Life is Good]

This dude be going in!

Yea it does because u even hear a lil of the setup before the track kicks in.
