Nas- Magic 3 Discussion Thread

[ThirdAct]

Post some bangers from these hit boy sessions that I'm forgetting, please. Hit-boys beats are just too safe, bland, uninspired, and unintriguing. They're like like beats for an NBC NFL promo or something.

I'll happily admit I'm wrong if you can help jog my memory, I just don't remember any of the production being noteworthy

Why we gotta go through this every time

AJ Snow said the album sounds elegant..
The cover makes sense.

What many of y'all don't get is that Nas has said repeatedly that him and Hit-Boy have a great chemistry. They are friends too. Hit has said that whereas other rappers just come into the studio and pick the beats they like and bounce, Nas and him actually hangout in the studio, chill, smoke, vibe and create the songs together. Hit posts many videos of this on his IG.

Nas even rapped it on "The Tide" where he states " Hit is more loyal than some of these dudes I used to do tapes with, they gotta face it" .....

So ask yourselves, does Nas have this same chemistry with Alc? Primo? Pete? Large Pro?

Maybe that's why we never got the Nas/Primo album yet......Nas don't feel the vibes the same way as with Hit

This, I always wanted Nas to work more with cats like JUSTICE League, and how he would sound over their lush luxurious beats.

Not sure what this means, what do you mean by squeezing the records?

The sample use?

When I say squeeze I mean taking all the dynamics and life out the beats and vocals
