:aicmon:Most of those features are not in the top 5-7 tracks on the albums they are featured. Damian Marley is a collabo not a guest.
except maybe Mobb deep n Chrisette. Nas featured tracks are major points on other artist's projects though.

Yeahhhh you’re definitely all alone with this shyt quality hot-take of yours buddy :mjlol:

HYPED AS FUCC FOR THIS!

Just copped a kings disease hoody & digital album of the first one. Even though I already got 2 vinyls when it dropped.

Also ordered an IWW Limited hoody when the anniversary dropped

Hope Eminem doesn’t ruin that EPMD 2 Joint. That’s the only one I’m iffy about.

Never heard of this boogie guy so no idea what to expect there.

Looking at Kings Disease track list though and seeing some of the feats on that I was like ehhh this ain’t gonna be all that great…. Then it dropped. And I can play every single song front to back. No skips for me.

Didn’t think I would ever see myself fukking w joints from the following:

Big Sean (TRASH. Ruined that Benny & Wayne Joint too)
Rocky (nothing against him just never reslly listened to his music before)
Don Toliver (no idea who he is)
Fivio Foreign (see above ^^^)
Lil Durk (mumble crap)

Wouldn’t listen to any of them outside of KD btw except maybe Rocky.

I like how Nas link w the youth & some older dudes too. Was a good balance. The younger peeps gonna check KD when they see those names like Durk etc which exposes Nas to a whole new audience. At the same time Nas stays true to his regular audience and doesn’t compromise his sound. Modern production from Hit-Boy absolutely delivers. KD was the perfect balance.

So going off that I’m pretty excited for KD2

Of course Vinyl & Hoody if they do them when Merch drops are a day one 1 cop for me

Yo wiki (obviously could be BS as anyone can edit) but interesting it has writers and producers already. And Premier down as producer on Death Row East and Dre as writer and Kanye on My Bible. Could be samples of Kanye and Dre on those two and Primo scratching but interesting. Dre also producer on the Charlie joint

Damn, it's probably the first time in 15/20 years that Nas has a video ready on time for the album release, and not 3 to 6 months after the album dropped (I'm talking besides the street singles like thief's theme etc.. that came out weeks or months before the album)

Even for KD i was mad at how long they took to do the videos, this time around it's done correctly!
