Nas - King's Disease III (Discussion Thread)

[waynep]

Why are we going to be pissed? Im not looking for Magic part II from KD3. In fact the mix of records he has for KD2 was almost perfect.

Well I'm pissed lol
It sounds like once again he's back to
leaving fire tracks off albums.

So the "hard truths" she tweeted about was that his team feels he needs to go a more commercial route? Not sure what the KD series sound is since the first 2 don't necessarily sound the same.

Basically they're trying to blend what they feel is the best of KD1 and best of KD2.
Me personally just give me good sounding songs is how I see it.

Nobody expecting Magic 2 from KD3 . My expectations it's a mix of all 3 albums. I'll just wait for the music

Nas can't help himself he'll have 1 or 2 Magic esque tracks on there. It's just who he is as an MC

She said he wants to put together a track with him and Wu-Tang for the tour
but it's been difficult to put together.

She was tweeting stuff like "when a goat knows he's not sounding right..." or "Nas can flip a switch and sound like live at the bbq again".

Saying he's scrapping "Magic" sounding tracks seems to contradict those tweets.

That surprises nobody anyone that's been a WU fan since day 1 or been to their shows throughout the years knows. All those nikkaz have trouble showing up to shows together

KD2 has tracks that have the Magic sound to some degree, so I def agree.

You gotta hear how she's describing all of this.
Reading between the lines their actually feeling the pressure with this album.
The album has gone thru a few reconstructions.

She said Nas hates talking to his fans

Tuned it late but it sounds like she's saying Nas and Jay are playing music to each other, seeking advice from each other, etc.
Regarding the Khaled verse (that Hov's camp says is amazing), and Nas playing him KD3 stuff.

 

[Prolific_1011]

I def know Hit-Boy understands the common feedback from the audience is that each album has been better than the previous one. So whatever iteration of KD3 ends up being the final version, I know it'll be fire. The fact they're feeling the pressure is a good thing.

She said Jay and Nas are really cool.
To the point of where they bounce rhyme ideas, business ideas off each other
and stuff like that. Said she was with Nas when Jay sent his Khaled song to him.
She said Nas went crazy over it.

they went crazy over that Sorry not Sorry shyt to I'm skeptical of anything with Khaled name attached to it. Especially after the last 2 Jay efforts with Khaled
