Nas - King's Disease III (Discussion Thread)

[CarltonJunior]

I think Hitboy is an ok producer, If i had to rate him I'd give him like a 7.5.

To me his greatest talent is he got Nas sounding like Nas again... I guess that counts the most. I'm not seeing this genius level producer here. I guess he's consistent ?

There's something about his beats, it just lacks something to me... I hear corny arrangements and odd sound choices on some songs...and the mixing, his beats are mixed to be the forefront rather than Nas.

Like I'm thinking back over all 4 of these releases, was there one classic beat ? Maybe Store Run... Maybe Moments ? To me HitBoy is holding these albums back, they're good releases that could be great-classic releases

I wish Kanye wasn't a dumbass and didn't rush the Gawd, took his time like he did with Push, even then.. As far as beats go ? I like Adam and Eve over anything on all 4 of these albums.

This is hating

Nas made a great transition with his music. He maDe it appeal to people who love hip hop but older raising families or just want more mature content

I normally had to holy trinity of

Illmatic
It was Written
The Lost Tapes

Magic was sitting just right outside of that. I think KD3 is about to enter that atmosphere for me.

 

[Ziggiy]

Damn Hit-Boy says Nas team didn’t submit Magic for Grammy consideration…

 

[Trace]

Magic really was just for the love of it.

 

[HHID]

he'll be alright

We still don't know who's singing I'm on fire though, or if it's even a sample right?
