This June will make 4 years since we last got an album from Nasir Jones, but with every passing year, the Queensbridge legend teases his return. From hinting at the reveal of an album title (which he’s done for over a year) to photos of him in the studio with guys like Jay Z, Justin Timberlake andTimbaland, Nas has had us believing a new Esco album is on the horizon for quite some time. Still, in the interim, he’s popped up at just the right times, appearing on Jay Z’s last album, Magna Carta Holy Grail, performing a high profile NYC show with Drake, and more recently, appearing on the remix toFuture’s “March Madness.”
This Friday, Nas will be in the spotlight once again, as it’s just been announced that he’ll be DJ Khaled‘s special guest on We The Best Radio. Khaled’s brand new Beats1 show brought us an exclusive interview with Future and a world premiere of the Atlanta rapper’s new album, EVOL, so if Nas and Khaled have something similar up their sleeves, we’re all for it.
