Billboard Snubs Nas’s Magic

Nobody outside the Coli likes the Nas + Hitboy weed plate collection

 

[Sad Bunny]

He made the same album six times so I can understand why he would not make the list this year.

 

[Harry B]

Are they on any list except some website like rapreviews?

Odd to call out Billboard of all sites, the name of the magazine tells you which business they are in.

[Sir Richard Spirit]

Nas is not pop culture.

He did not!!!
Just had the same producer, that’s where the similarities end!!

I agree he needs a Preemo album & should switch it up.
But I love all his hitboy albums.
I saw him on his NY state of mind Wu Tang Tour
Trust me when I say store run sounds amazing live!!!

Nas is on billboard top 20 for 2020, 2021 and 2022, they showed him love throughout this series. IMO Nas dropped the last two albums in 2023 for 3 reasons, to complete both compilations and put a bow on his time working with hit boy, to drop albums on the 50th year of hip hop and to drop on his bday.

Were the albums dope? Yeah. Was it something most people were yearning like the other tapes? Nah.

I enjoyed the tapes, that’s all that mattered, they did not snub Nas though

 

[Knucklehead]

I’m a big Nas fan but let’s be reality here after KD2 the larger public including hip-hop fans under 40 stopped caring.
Just be happy he’s feeding his fans.

 

[Nighthawk]

let’s just be reality. Life is good was nas’ last good album.

 

[ThirdAct]

let’s just be reality. Life is good was nas’ last good album.

Magic 1 and KD3 are both better

Doubt it

He was on the list 3 years in a row prior to this year
