Nas - Magic 2 (Discussion thread)

[Ziggiy]

Let them have this one man

I get that you're passionate but....chill lol

Nah they shytTED on KD1 and called it misogynistic. A album with TIL THE WAS IS WON on it they called misogynistic and they straight up REFUSED to review KD2, Magic, or KD3. fukking MUSIC REVIEW MAGAZINE straight up ignored THREE STRAIGHT album releases from one of the most celebrated artists in the genre. Thats TERRIBLE journalism.

Def feels like a button has been pushed for this release, compared to the others outside of KD2. Wonder if Orchard/Sony is involved again?

Or maybe they just can't overlook 5 quality albums in 3 years no more. fukk RS and none of us waiting for them for validation but still good to see, somehow..

11 songs seems short but it’s still new music so guess we can’t complain that much

I'll always love this song

If I had to be honest. In HS, I loved that song too. Then I heard my friends knocking it and I had to enjoy it secretly. I also like Jarreau of Rap too. I even like Who Killed It. It's hilarious to me but catchy too. It starts pretty hard then Nas comes on and says "Look here, see". LOL...

Let’s not drag this writer for what
someone else did. We addressed that writer and justifiably so.

 

[Slim Charles]

Nice to see Nas get the praise he deserves as these media companies have power to create narratives but same time like Ziggiy said these media companies who don’t know shyt about hip hop been dismissing Nas for years so I’m indifferent/ couldn’t care less what they think.

But props to whoever wrote the article

I think Rolling Stone heard us...its actually a black writer doing this..that KD1 review was the worst piece of journalism ever.

In this day and age, Its not that many black young writers anymore. I just think they didnt wanna touch anymore Nas reviews until they got a black writer
