He sounded buzzed/drunk, and then the video of them in the studio confirmed he was drinking lol. But that's on Khaled to me, not Nas. I got respect for Khaled because he's a hip hop head who grinded to the top but there's more to being a producer than just yelling on a record, or telling the producer to turn the bass up. You have to be able to say "ok I have the vocals but I need this re-done." It's not about "I have the vocals, put the record out." Doesn't mean you gotta be disrespectful, and it doesn't mean you have to demand 100 retakes like Dre. But in this era, getting the best vocal performance from rappers (and singers) is a dead art.
You can't be scared that if you actually produce somebody they're gonna bounce. Obviously Nas wouldn't do that, I'm talking about the newer artists. Nas understands the coaching process in the studio whereas...Lil Baby doesn't, for instance. But if you're focus is getting as much shyt from Lil Baby before he leaves instead of focusing on the quality...you let it slide. That's Khaled...
