I think Nas team have said fukk promo lol, all these releases probably keep Mass Appeal afloat so as long as he releases at the pace he’s doing they’re probably good, the albums don’t seem like the biggest expense to make also.

Coop said the plug told him that Premier has been working in the background to help keep Hit Boy and Nas in the “zone”
At least as far back as the first Magic.
I heard him say that he'll help HB dig for sample or something. He always shows love even if he's not the "hot" producer of the time. Shoutout for HB even wanting his input for a little as it might be :salute:

The plug lady alluded to Nas being the one who keeps the lights on when it comes to the US recording side of things. Apparently Mass Appeal is doing EXTREMELY well as a label overseas.

Mass Appeal has scored some pretty heavy hitters when it comes to international acts, India especially, she said Nas is like a God over there and I believe it after seeing the film Gully Boy. I wish they could get a few well known artists on the domestic side. They had a REAL nice roster about ten years ago while Nas was on his hiatus. Fashawn, Run The Jewels, Bishop Nehru, Cantrell and Boldy James. They also released albums from Pimp C and Dilla. Now I think its only Nas and Fashawn and when’s the last time Fashawn released an album?

Right the last time I was interested in Fashawn was like 2015-16, I know his last album came in 2015 but he’s probably released mixtapes since then. Boy Meets World is a classic for me, I thought he would have at least had a career like Wale after that.

Also Mass Appeal India is ingenious, great move to try break into a market with a billion people, I think apart from domestically Mass Appeal could also make a lot of waves in Europe, especially UK if they was focused on that.

All great albums for me as well. The Magic and KD 3 is even to me. But I had to make a choice.
KD3 and Magic are my faves of the 4... I think he gets better with every release to be honest.
Definitely agree with you on that
