I’m sorry to say but fans have to stop being distracted. 21 savage is trending and he is charting on Spotify Nas is not. This thing about 21 could have been posted since Saturday but the media waited until today to make it go viral bc they knew Nas fans would give them clicks. So who benefited 21 Savage. Now the narrative will be KD3 & Hitboy is keeping Nas relevant. Rakim, Lil Kim, Illmatic DJ Khaled all trended but guess who didn’t Nas or KD3.-via kingdisease


Wait didn’t Spotify just put out that Nas is number 3 on their top albums charts?


I only have the “regular” version of Spotify and I only use it for podcasts. Been running up my streaming via Apple and Tidal so I don’t really know how Spotify works

Yo, Nas the illest ever man, :laugh:🤮. So many flows, so much heavy content while still maintaining the braggadocio fly guy rapper thing, so much musical range (Hitboy is a musical genius, he really really smoked this album). So many bars, so many jammin ass records, so much heavy talk, etc... I can go on and on...and that ties into my one and only little lightweight nitpicky gripe...the album kind of went on and on. Imagine if the last song was "Once a man, Twice a child"...:ohmy:, just 12 perfect 10 out of 10 records, 😱. Maybe have "Get Light" as the bonus, 🤯.

13-16 are all dope ass records, there are no bad joints on here...I don't even think there are any average joints (Maybe 17, the Mets bonus joint, but that shyt hard too lol)...I just think it's like...we just had the delicious 40oz Tomahawk joint with the lobster mac at Ruth's Chris and we so stuffed and delighted with our meal that we can't even eat another bite...then the waiter brings out lobster tails and the stuffed mushrooms and all that, lol, it's overkill a little bit...and for someone with Nas's subject matter, overkill could lose/turn off the A.D.D. "Nas is boring. Nas raps about the same stuff" ass weirdo sect. That's it tho, my gripe aint really a gripe, I'm just thinking about how to avoid the hatin ass people and their complaints, lol, screw them tho.

But yeah, B+ for me, like a 89 out of 100 (is that a B+ or an A-?). Excellent album, damn near perfect...definitely the best album he's released with Hitboy and probably his best album since IWW.

KD3
Magic
KD2
KD1

For me...looks like that's the consensus (it seemed like yall was frontin on "Magic" in here but I won't stone yall for seemingly switchin up, this is a joyous moment right now, lol. Salute to the best to ever do it...by a country mile. Jigga a distant 2nd at this point, for real.
nikka that is one of best Martin episodes :dead: :dead: :dead: :mjlol:

This 21 shyt actually great buzz for Nas haha. And Nas got his back both on the shade room and on 21’s comment section

Jungle even replied on theshaderoom haha
It really is. Not to mention the B&E on his crib being all on TMZ and all that. That 21 joint is really the one though because I'm sure 90% of the dialogue around that is pro-Nas, so everybody following it is gonna be reading how great everyone thinks Nas is. Not to mention 21 Savage himself thinks Nas is great and is backtracking and recanting...great look for Esco.

It is kinda wild how this 21 and Nas story is absolutely on every outlet. I’m pretty sure this had to be some type of distraction haha

Got a new favorite track everyday. Every fukking track. Today it’s Michael and Quincy



I'm activated, my hair might spark flames
Aviator frames, bandages, laminates, a stage
From a stretcher, I wave
Even if I never had two arms full of Grammys
Or a sponsor from Pepsi, I'd still be honorary
Like Quincy on the trumpet, Hit-Boy on a drum kit
Nasty like Mike on the vocals, I overdub it (Shamone)
Bouncin' off the wall, always startin' somethin'
Behind the scenes of the "Thriller" video, big budgets (Big budgets)
Moonwalkin', smooth criminal talkin' (Smooth talkin')
I'm changin' colors right now 'til I'm dark-skinned ('Til I'm dark-skinned)
Adam Clayton Powell, complexion of Baldwin's
Annie, are you okay watchin' me transformin'? (Shamone)
Pinky ring glitter like the socks and the glove
Know some money-gettin' thugs that could buy The Beatles pub
That's what I really call coppin' white, re-in' up (Re-in' up)

My least favorite song was recession proof. Was in the whip and caught myself bopping my head hard as hell realizing it was to recession proof. Now this song is my personal favorite in the whip.
The way Nas and Hit Boy switched up the sounds throughout KD3 is a work of art.
