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?

ASAP Rocky is featured

The back cover shows ASAP Rocky as a feature on the Wave Gods song with DJ Premier. No other features are shown so we shall see.

The Hot New Hip Hop article said there’s no other guest features besides ASAP Rocky but I do find it hard to believe be’d have a Wu-Tang influenced song and NOT have at least Raekwon on it. Unless its in the vein of Unauthorized Biography Of Rakim or Death Row East where’s he’s trying to tell a specific story

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.
I don't wanna derail the thread too much but just wanted to say Jay is my personal favorite rapper of all time but I agree with all of this.

Nas is in rare air at the moment.

Have you ever had that moment where life is just coming to you so easy? Decisions are producing desired results. Your most creative shyt just comes out so effortless. Showing love and getting it in return.

It's like that moment has been ongoing for Nas for like 3 years.

It don't even feel like competition music, just an outlet of thought, passion, and wisdom.

Damn, I'm sounding my age
