We will have to see on the 15th or the week of the 15th. I doubt Nas will comment one way or another.

There are no signs of it happening. When has Nas ever dropped an album with no notice, no word at all from him? Use your brain. I want to bust Kanye ass just for getting peoples hopes up with his shenanigans

I think these are all gonna be side projects as such. I don't think this will be the album that Nas has been working on for years it'll be an EP of a bunch of new songs he recorded with Ye.

Hope you guys are ready for June 11th-13th, during which Elliott Wilson, Peter Rosenberg, Diddy, and other insiders will start saying this is Nas' best album in x amount of years, it might be a classic, etc etc. Because that's clearly the gameplan, based on this Pusha roll out.

I'm all in. Sold.
:yeshrug:

I remember saying this ages ago: Kanye is a Nas stan. I remember ages ago hearing Kanye geek out about how dope Silent Murder was lmao. He knows what Nas sounds good over. I've posted this many times on the Coli but once again, listen to how he talks about Nas and We Major (Hov's favorite track on Late Registration lmao):


There's something about...Nas and horns. Nas and hard drums. Nas and moody basslines. And Kanye is a good enough producer to do it in such a way that it doesn't feel dated or whatever.

Do I wish it was say...10 tracks instead of 7? Yea. But if these tracks are as good as they could potentially be...it's gonna be an amazing album.

Nas has never really been a singles artist but not one snippet or song to build suspense? I’m not hopeful especially with Ye tweaking lately.
