In honor of the Hit-Boy era lets bring it back to the beginning…

-Debuted at number 5 on Billboard
- Won Nas his first Grammy for Best Rap Album (also making him the oldest rapper ever to win the award)
-Marked the beginning of Nas’s prolific run of 4 albums in 3 years.


Favorite song from the album



Salute to the Young gawd Hit-Boy! I was just thinking yesterday what a blessing he is to hip-hop. What a blessing he has been to Nas. :wow:

I randomly thought about this today. What if this was the surprise Nas was talking about a few years ago. Dre was on Kd1 and did mention preme on kd3 :leon: the internet would crash. Nas is on his own label now too so he would own the masters to these. Sorry I couldn’t find the Nas thread.

Yea thats what I was theorizing when that footage of Nas and Dre in the studio dropped on social media. I think maybe the project with Dre got scrapped when Dre suffered that aneurism. Nas was still in a zone and went right back to work with Hit-Boy

I thought the secret album might be a proper firm reunion

Surprise premo and dre album would first way better than a firm album. Firm in 2024 ain’t moving the needed. Dropping a preme album and Dre album on the same day is shutting everything down.
