-The first three tracks are definitely going to be the hard, classic Nas tracks. I just have a feeling. Especially if the album follows the same path sonically as the first one.

-Regardless of how anybody here feels about Eminem, this is a HUGE moment for hip hop. Him and Nas have never been on a track together, at all. Had me thinking it would never happen. Part of me is excited just at the thought of them doing something, and I know Eminem was like :mjlit: when he was recording his verse in Detroit. Not just for Nas, but the fact that he gets to team up with one of the GOAT rap groups (EPMD) at the same time. Then the other part of me knows that Eminem has a habit of killing the excitement once you hear the finished product. I don't want to hear him rap 100 miles a minute, or bring out those faux Lil Wayne punchlines, or change the original beat around so it's easier for him to rap to it. This isn't the track for that. I do NOT want to skip over this track because he decided to fukk it up.

-Lauryn Hill. :wow: I'm surprised it took this long for Nas to get her on another album. This could end up being the "Full Circle" sequel. I know she'll drop a great hook, but if she raps? Another HUGE moment for hip hop. :mjcry:

-Charlie Wilson is back. You can never go wrong with Charlie Wilson. :blessed: I don't even need to hear the track to know it will be great. "Car #85" and "This Ain't Love, But I Love It" were enough proof.

I'm ready for this album, guys. The track list has me feeling like a little kid. Nas and Hit Boy have it in them to give us another fire album. They're going for back-to-back titles, that second one. :blessed:

:whoo:

OK, Let's go. Again I know there's been speculation about features but I actually like as less as possible. Loving that it's mostly solo songs. Interesting mix of young and old again. Also love the singing features if true. Big Charlie is back. L-Boogie and Esco return. Kind of like the Firm last time. I'm happy they got EPMD on the song. LOL, the Long awaited Eminem collabo, I know he's happy NaS hit him up. He turned him down for the Daughters Remix. Love that it's longer and less features. Looks like a good sequel.



(Produced by Eminem)


Man i wished we'd all stop pretending that The Cross was a fire beat. This is gonna be the 'braveheart party' of the album.

we might not be overly hyped about the Eminem verse but it is a huge moment particularly with EPMD on the track too. We might not agree but for Em and Nas to do their first song together is huge and Eminem will know what sort of rhyming to bring with Nas and EPMD i hope

Death Row EastI don't see it featuring The Firm purely because it's the second track so don't see him having a posse cut that early on in the album.

Don't see how the Lauryn Hill and Charlie tracks won't be nothing but incredible.

Then even the solo cuts the song titles sound like nostalgic, story telling Nas like 40 Side, My Bible, Moments

I reckon Nas is Good what with the King's Disease theme is a reflection on his current success and his current happiness

Eminem appearing on the album already got all the blogs, fans, social media buzzing

say what u want about EM, he still has a large fan base and is a legend :yeshrug:

Exactly. Only on the Coli do people think Eminem is irrelevant.

EMPD2 will be talked about more than the album. Just like Friday night Cypher was talked about more than the entire Big Sean Album.
