Nas- Magic 3 Discussion Thread

[Jule]

I was little underwhelmed with Magic 2 but luckily this album gave me that feeling again. This Nas + Hit-Boy run is unprecedented. I truly hope this isn't their last project. Probably take a few years off come back and make some more fire. With that said this has been an incredible 3 years. By far the most entertaining/consistent hip-hop duo in recent years (in my opinion).

Hit Boy the best Kanye prodigy

 

[Spades Of Aces]

Whew! What a run by this duo They really brought out the best in each other! Magic 3 is NaS just taking a victory lap, having fun with beats while letting people know why he’s a top tier MC. Man….I can’t believe that this is it.

This may be their best album folks

Production is as good as OG Magic.On second listen def top3 top 2 project from them.

Cold part, Illmatic all through the episode of Ozark
I think thats harder than if I had co-starred
A ghetto symphony Im Chief Keef cozart mixed with Mozart
Its ill when you get bags for your old art
Million dollars sig for Al Jerreu Of Rap
but they aint understand it when it dropped, how cold is that


What deal did Nas do with the Jerreau record?

 

[bigdaddy88]

Invest in good headphones brehs shyt sounding heavenly lol

 

[Stone]

Japanese Soul Bar prob the early favorite for me

Conversely the last track prob my least favorite

 

[Mastamimd]

The feeling in this album has kind of a sad yet triumphant feeling, if that makes sense. Makes sense being the way to close the series

It was in a commercial but I can't remember which one. I think it might have been Visa or something. Nas keeping tabs on nikkas that been hating lol.

@Ziggiy Any specific reason why this is their last album together? I don't understand why it's a definitive thing. Care to share your thoughts, breh?

Nas said on the last song they’ll work together again. This isn’t goodbye its more like “Until Next Time”.

Hit Boy probably wants to devote some time to putting in work on Big Hit’s solo album. And Nas already hinted at what could be next on KD3 (“Premier Album Still Might Happen”)

Whatever Nas decides to do I wholeheartedly do NOT think this man is taking a break any time soon. He sounds wayyyyyyy too locked in to slow it down now. Magic 2 was excellent but THIS shyt right here is Sorcerer Supreme levels of Magic.

 

[Prolific_1011]

These 6 albums with Hit Boy would already be one of the best discographies of all time.

Let that sink in...

 

[Primetime21]

I'm waiting for this game to be wrapped up to give this a spin, comments in here got me hyped though

 

[Izanami]

Those "Hit is a weak producer" "all the albums sound the same" "Nas need to work with" nikkas real quiet right now.

@Piff Perkins hold this L bruh
