Any idea if KD3 is already done and ready to drop when suitable ? Cause he seems to have started touring which would potentially mean less time for recording. Obviously he has no obligation to release it this year but he has been spoiling us lately so that's the hope.

Maybe after the Game "hype" dies down (due to the Hit Boy association) we can enjoy the new installment in the series, so fingers crossed for August 2022.

Let's go Escoooooo !!!
Im betting mid to late July. I think the tour starts in late August. That would give him enough promo time before the tour. When he gets back from his current overseas tour, they probably will wrap it up with final touches.

Who else is dropping?
Drake and Cole are dropping again. Travis dropping, Uzi. Hov and Beyonce allegedly dropping (separately). Dre is sitting on a real album this time, we'll see. Lots of big names are dropping, and plotting massive tours for winter 2022/early 2023.

After watching these latest concert vids my excitement has increased and again I have to pay homage to hitboy. A LOT of the beats he gave Nas works so dope live it’s crazy. Spicy, 40-16, 27 Summers,wave gods,40 side, Blue Benz, Rare, EPMD, Speechless, YKTV etc. Theres a lot of energy and heat from those records. As Nas fans we really been blessed with a 5 years worth of work in two and a half years. Nas live show is a one of one. Homie really got songs from 4 different decades moving the crowd it is just so unheard of, unimaginable.

yeh can't wait for Paris. Hope the crowd knows some of the newer cuts as seen some vids at least from US shows where people didn't really react to the new tracks but from few of the Europe vids, people seemed hype for stuff like 40-16 building
Yea I didn't like the energy from the Us shows when he performed the new stuff. 27 Summers, Spicy, Store Run and Speechless should be staple songs in his show set. The love the overseas crowd shows him if I was him I would be back out there more often as long as the bag is comparable.

Yea the U.S. in general I feel doesn’t appreciate Nas the way they should. He still feels very underrated, but I think that’s more a societal issue more than it’s knock against Nas. Most people are lost.

I dont think its just Nas.. US audiences do that to all great artists after a certain stage. People still flock to the shows and most artists from his era still attract large audiences. Shyt Snoop is a more recognizable artist than Nas and he aint talked about musically in the mainstream anymore. But they come out to the shows regardless

you can't expect the energy to be the same for those songs in comparison to something like NYSOM for example. As much as we like the new shyt it doesn't hold up vs the older material. That's not a knock to the Hitboy/Nas material its shyt like Nas is Like has been classic for 20+ years it hits different for people
