Nas - King's Disease III (Discussion Thread)

[T.H.E.GOD]

That dude DoublesWorld keeps referring to the album as "Monumental". When asked whether it's better than Magic, both he and Hitboy "like" the comment.

Out of all shyt I read, your post hyped me up the most for the anticipation. All I need other than this album is to win the lotto this week.

Ya'll set a really low bar for what constitutes a "skippable track".

Truth be told, KD1, KD2 and Magic have 0 skips for me. Does that mean every track is a perfect 5/5? Of course not.

I’ve said the same thing. Truth be told KD1, KD2 and Magic have no absolutely weak tracks.

If there's features I don't wanna see any whack ass new school cats on there like Big Sean, Young Thug, or NBA Youngboy. That would honestly ruin it for me.
Give me Rakim, Raekwon or Ghostface, Cormega or AZ, Havoc, Redman, etc.

I hope Nas really takes it back on this......back to the essence.....nostalgic hip hop.

Well if you go in with that narrow mindset, you are bound to be disappointed before hearing an album.

Just noticed in the Doc clip that Nas was using a pen and pad. Something he hasn't done in the Hit-Boy era.. That's all I needed to see. The bars of Gold makes that much more sense now. He's locked in.

Let me say this the most respectful way possible Nas stans are the GOATS for a reason

Lol He been freestyling albums and writing in his phone on the spot. Punching in a lot. He talked about how he doesn't use pen and pad anymore in his Masterclass.. We about to get overly detailed descriptive Nas back.

There is a gray area that exists between those two groups- that is, younger and talented artists and older but still relevant artists, overall they havent done bad balancing the two groups for the KD series. Im not trying to hear no damn Rakim, Havoc, or Redman on KD3 thats for sure. You might as well play Illmatic dawg if thats the sound you looking for

At this point in his career, he can work with anyone he likes. He's one of the few older heads who shows the newer generation love/respect. The younger cats he has on his recent albums he is a fan of, otherwise they wouldnt get placements.
