Official Nas Thread

[CELL]

Alright so I went to watch Nas in Manchester on Monday and all I can say is, prepare yourselves brehs. This shyt is gonna pop off.

Also as another point, he was playing with a live band called, 'zyzz' who FYI fukking destroyed it! Any one ever heard of these guys?

Nas signed for 3 albums so his deal with Def Jam is up but it looks like they want to keep the GOAT on thier roster

However if they were so high on Nas I simply don't understand why there was such an issue with him dropping Lost Tapes 2, which was SURE to be successful based off the fact the first one had no promotion and moved 300k and is considered a classic.

Honestly though, where else would he go? Back to Sony? He already gave them the middle finger. I don't see why he would go to Atlantic and Interscope is a Joke of a label when it comes to quality Hip Hop (hopefully Kendrick Lamar breaks that cycle) probably best to stay with DJ if he still wants to be on a Major

Nas signed a 4 album deal with Defjam, not 3....
The first 2 HHID and Untitled were split with Sony since he owed them one more album, and then he owed DefJam 2 more direct , the first of which is this album....He still has one more album on his deal as Distant Relatives was on Universal Republic and didnt count on his deal, and Lost Tapes 2 wouldnt of counted either....

I see that but it's like only for this album that nas got a real promotion. With def jam, he never had more than two single per album. And never was on facebook, twitter like that. Now he have a management team ect and I still think beeing at def jam influenced too much his music. I don't see nas realese a Nas/Primo album on def jam, but will see. At least if he sign a new contract better be for 1 album only, see how it goes and not beeing trap

Ah, which is is why Def Jam gave the no go to Lost Tapes 2?

For Lost Tapes 2 to ever come out nas needs to go back to going to platinum.

Ah yea my bad it IS indeed 4 albums. Two jointly financed with Sony and two with Def Jam alone...
