The OFFICIAL Coli Album Of The Year 2020 *Winner: Nas - King's Disease*

[Low End Derrick]

In the least surprising news of 2020, Nas' thirteenth studio album 'King's Disease' has won the Coli's Album of the Year accolade!
(Click album cover for discussion thread)

Released at the tail end of the summer, 'King's Disease' is a bright and nostalgic affair, touching on subjects as varied as his upbringing in the notorious Queensbridge Projects, admonishing Doja Cat and Gayle King and alleviating the effects of gout. Athough Nasir bin Olu Dara Jones taps in with new school upstarts such as Lil' Dirk, Don Toliver and Anderson. Paak to help recount his laments in life and love, the album's highlight "Full Circle" features an unexpected, yet gratifying reunion with Nas' old friends, the once hyped hip hop supergroup The Firm. (Sans Nature)

Produced entirely by Hit-Boy, the 13 track Grammy nominated LP was a hit with most critics, some citing it a return to the creative and introspective best after the disappointing 2018 albim 'Nasir' and calling it "his most satisfying project in close to a decade."

All in all, a worthy winner of this coveted prize. Salute to Nas!

I don't like NO music from 2020. Keeping it real. I got cocaine coming out of my ass and ears. This year is proof people listen to older music these last some years.

Im sure most people missed this album when it dropped but it might be my favourite album of the year. For those who never heard it I encourage you to give it a spin.

 

[nightpupil]

You havent heard enough.

I heard plenty not as much as maybe 2018 but I heard enough. And just when you think you got things figured you see rappers illusions. They just where really not that good to begin with.
