Nas - King's Disease III (Discussion Thread)

[kes929]

I feel like there will be more promo tomorrow. Im sure the unfortunate passing of Takeoff shuffled things around some. Im sure the team doesn’t want to look insensitive. Looking forward to KD3

YKTV

Legit couldn’t fukk with Replace Me either, both the worst songs on their respective albums.

Come with the hate.

Your nutty as hell..replace me was fireeeee

The two deaths Nas mentioned on his IG really made me think about how each King's Disease album has a track where Nas says rest in peace to a recently lost icon, rapper, person etc. KD1 it was rest in peace to Kobe and Nip. KD2 it was rest in peace to Ecstasy and DMX. Takeoff is the huge one recently but there have been so many this year, I'd imagine some will be mentioned on KD3.

He mentioned losing Young Dolph on Magic. This was roughly a few weeks after it happened.

Replace is super fire and my girl loved YKTV.

Not sure but I was gonna say KD 3 is dropping the same day as Offset's solo and a Meek Mill tape. If Offset is going ahead with his he'll probably get the bulk of attention but we'll see

I can’t . Nas fan base is just….

Let’s focus on the positive. @Life is Good what are you most excited about in regards to Kd3?

 

[NV-ME]

That generally takes 1-2 years of negotiating plus the way they’ve done the BP soundtracks Nas would have had to commit to an entire album “Inspired By” the film or at least multiple tracks.

That type of promotion can be invaluable but it really doesn’t fit for the KD series.

I won’t hate. I think they are in that bottom tier too. I don’t think either song is wack though and I do think they were songs with some single potential/commercial appeal.

I’m excited about hearing the music for the first time bc as a fan that’s my focus. I’m a fan of the KD series and will miss his music if he ever decides to not make music for a very long time. As a fan I’m happy to celebrate the great music he & Hitboy are creating for us. Appreciation is major and sometimes fans don’t show that bc for some odd reason we feel we can dictate the work of an artist and devalue them, their time and skill. No artist is perfect or void of criticism but there is a such thing as overboard. I have no worries about KD 3 dropping 11/11/22 no matter who else is dropping bc Nas & Hit has proven their GREATNESS time & time again. Let’s celebrate and appreciate Nas & Hitboy!

Prince Markie Dee (Shock G).....

And even Magic had "Marvin Gaye to Young Dolph, we taking out our brothers."

YKTV was corny to me too, I skipped that shyt literally every time other than the first time, lol. Replace Me is a good record tho, you lost me there. “All Bad” got skipped a lot more than Replace Me for me. Whatever tho, all opinionated. You fukked with the rest of the albums tho besides those joints?

Yeah fukked with all of the KD albums, including All Bad...

I’m with you on this fam. It’s like Christmas night as an adult when Esco drops.

All Bad is one of my favorite tracks of the covid era.
