And to apply common sense here, why would nas create an alias that produces music similar too his own and without any form of publicity

An alias isn't even nas's style in the first place :dahell:
:dahell: nasty nas to esco to escobar now he is nastradamus?

and if you cant see how a mysterious mixtape appearing on the internet (ala jay elec) sounding just like nas isn't a form of publicity, i dont know what to tell ya

Nicca, you're too smart to not know what i meant

Poor execution on my part. Having an alias that's detached from his main persona is not Nas's style...

And what's the payoff in this 'your old droog' character? Create an alias to get away with making subpar music? :ahh:


And why in the bloody would nas need an alias of this sort to drum up publicity? :dahell: he wouldn't get any new fans from it??? Think for a second ffs

Breh its marketing technique of which the benefits are many. Jigga talks about dualities, beyonce drops an album out of nowhere, chance the rapper be planting. Its out of the ordinary and gets the internet speculating among other shyt. Im not saying this is nas but I wouldnt rule it out for the reasons you mention.

Plus, what would he have to lose dropping a free ep under an alias? No pressure to live up to expectations.

shyt, even j k rowling wrote under a pen name so she could do crime fiction without fukking up her brand.

Why didnt someone think of this idea earlier. Imagine drizzy having a conscious alter ego :banderas:

I'm telling yall I don't think it's Nas. Nas doesn't have a tradition of dropping projects for free. The last one was the ****** Mixtape and that was solely so he could release some of the more fiery/militant material that Def Jam wouldn't allow on the album.


Nas also doesn't need to drop music under an alias. This is NAS we're talking about. This man sells out arenas in Africa, Europe , and does sold out shows celebrating a 20 year old album. The fukk Nas needs to rap under an alias for?


Nas is the King of Queensbridge, he shouts out QB in EVERY project he's ever released, you REALLY think his alias would be as a BROOKLYN MC???
