Nas active as shyt… I respect it. When you in a zone you keep going.
You love to see it. He's truly in another creative prime. I'd never have guessed in the spring of 2018 that we'd get 5 Nas albums before 2022 came around.

Hit-Boy and Nas and Alchemist and Boldy James finding their grooves are my favorite things to happen in the past couple years. I love that single producer collab albums are so common right now.

Hes trying to get another hit out to be ready for the Jay Versus

man stop

jay-z hasn't dropped an album since 2017. or maybe 2018, if u count the :trash: carter's album.

meanwhile :ahh: has dropped 2 classics in a row. and before that, the lost tapes 2, and we getting another one today. so this will be 4 albums in the last 3 years.

Holy shyt. I’m grinning like a mutha fukka at this news.

based on the cover/ font/ song titles this going to be a 90s throwback for sure. Haters can STFU when Nas shows he could always go back into that 90s lane people wanted him to do all the time

Releasing this quick after KD2 they must be confident they got something special once again

I fukks with Hit-Boy, but Remi has a handful of Nas classics

Made You Look
Poison
Get Down
Thief's Theme
Queens Story

other than made you look, get down and theif's theme, I prefer the hit boy songs.

also get down is sampling that classic james brown, so there's no way you could fukk that one up.

So is this an album with no features or are they hiding them until the album drops tonight? I just can't imagine him making a song called "Wu for the Children" and not have someone from the Wu on the record. Also, Nas has never done a studio album with no features. Will this be the first?

IF this album is anything close to an 8 or 9/10 then we need to start talking about Nas replacing Jay in terms of skills and discogcraphy.

Top 3 GOATS: BIG. PAC. NAS
4) Rakim
5) Big Daddy Kane
