Not really, Nas didn’t know Hitboy when he dropped Life is Good ep by No ID. Let’s not get into the habit of attributing too much to Hitboy because Nas was already a GOAT before these last 4 albums, he has dropped Illmatic Stillmatic Lost Tapes It Was Written Distant Relatives Life Is Good I Am without Hitboy.
They got a good connection right now and Hitboy looks to becoming one of the GOAT producers in his own right, that’s it though we don’t need to go overboard cause I would still love to hear a Nas album EP by No ID also.
Kd2, Magic and Kd3 are better than
Nasir, Life Is Good (debatable tho), Untitled, Hiphop Is Dead, Streets Disciple, and God's Son
These guys strung together projects back to back to back to back that supassed anything GOAT did the previous 2 decades. That aint by accident
Not only is the quality there but he's not taking 5-7 years to release his projects now. Those two have clearly figured out the cheat code in the studio
HitBoy is Nas' Quincy for real.
