Dope how certain joints thematically and sonically play like sequels to others in the KD series:

30 is the sequel to 27 Summers

Serious Interlude is the sequel to All Bad

Get Light is the sequel to Ultra Black

First Time is the sequel to Moments

Beef is the sequel to Death Row East

Til My Last Breath is a sequel to Spicy & YKTV

(OAN…Thun sounds like it belongs on Magic)
Thun reminded me of 40-16

“I opened so many doors, my launch pad was Main Source

:banderas:

That bar is so fukking dense it’s crazy. :scust:

Nas’ wordplay and rare use of entendres is masterful.

Especially if you take into account the last line of Live At the BBQ :mindblown:

Last verse on WTF SMH might be the best verse on here. Might be the best verse Nas has written in some time

Listened to the album all the way through twice and this shyt is great. Only miss is that wtf smh song and even then it’s not that bad. Hit boy is making beats that fit perfectly with Nas flow and Nas is just floating on all these tracks. Evaluating the KD trilogy, KD1 felt like an experiment between hit boy and Nas. Some beats worked some didn’t. KD2 was hit boy and Nas getting more comfortable and familiar with each other. KD3 is everything coming together perfectly. Hitboy knows what kind of beats Nas sounds great on and Nas knows how to flow perfectly on Hitboy tracks now. As other posters mentioned I would not be mad if Hitboy just continues working on Nas albums. Their chemistry shows on each album.

I think it’ll go to Beyonce.


But man I don’t know why people hate Mr. Morale so much. I really enjoy it and still listen to it regularly.

KD3 better though. Not even a question
Young and dumbass rap fans

Though a track like purple hearts isn't great. It should take for the last 45 seconds for it to get really interesting sonically

Who's listening to the spaces with our Twitter friend?
She's saying something about According2hiphop dropping
the ball with a poster or something Nas asked for. I'm lost
on what she talking about but Coop is pissed off about it too.
