Oh Snap, I was right y'all, he made the cracked tape the cover. More songs than the original too.

I just try to work with people who I admire or whom I think has got it. So right now I’m working on Nas’ shyt, about to work with Kanye on his shyt

2010

When I was down there [Kanye's Hawaiian home studio], Nas was down there, my boy [Pusha T] from the Clipse was there, a lot of people were coming in an out and shyt, and I started playing a lot of my beats. Nas was like, ‘Damn, yo, what the fukk are you doing with all this music?…We should do some shyt together.’ He said maybe me and Kanye could come together and produce [his] album. If that happens, that’d be real fun because I feel Nas is definitely one of the best emcees to touch the mic. I’d love to hear Nas on at least five RZA beats. That shyt would be fukking crazy! We did two songs, one was called ‘Verbal Intercourse’ [off Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…], the other one never came out.”

2010

When we were working on Godson album Nas had this record called The Toy. One of the craziest songs i ever heard. It was over a Kanye West beat, said Mos Def just bought it. We tried to make a new beat for it but nothing was as good as the original

I’ll add to your Alchemist story by saying Al said Nas is the big name artist he currently wants to work with the most. He said even though he’s mostly recording at his crib and is done chasing placements, that he and Nas recorded a lot in person, had a lot of fun making records, and that he thinks if he and Nas could lock in for a few weeks that they could make a classic album.

Also fun fact. Nas passed on the We Gon Make It beat. I actually can’t hear Nas over it but I’m sure he would’ve rocked it.
