Preemo is literally listening to people exactly like you



He really shouldn’t

If he’s doing the absolute best he can and Nas is inspired by the beats enough to, not only press go on the long awaited album, but to knock out FIFTEEN joints, thats all that matters.

Fans don’t know what they want until they see it/hear it.

What? He did it on the clipse album when he was featured. Cut off Pharrell's beat mid song and threw on a Hitboy produced nas verse. So this theory isn't far fetched

Pharrell produced the entire song. He wanted Clipse to rap over the second beat, but Pusha thought it sounded like Nas, so he sent the beat to him to rap over. He tried getting Nas on It's Almost Dry ("Hear Me Clearly"), but it didn't work out and people in Nas' camp were calling him stupid for not doing the feature.

It's finally happening. We've waited for decades and now the time is finally here. Yes it's true, NaS and Premo are definitely Light Years ahead as their music has stood the test of time. But the album is going to be like time traveling so the title probably has multiple meanings. Love the cover and title. We are getting 15 tracks? Wow. December can't come fast enough. Here's a tracklist I made last year of all the NaS/Premo related songs. Would be a nice bonus disc but clearing all the songs from different labels would be hard. But listening to all their songs was dope. Can't wait for the album:


ESCO X PREMO

1. N.Y. State of Mind
2. N.Y. State of Mind II
3. Streets of New York W/Alicia Keys & Rakim
4. Memory Lane (Sittin' In The Park)
5. Represent
6. I Gave You Power
7. NaS is Like
8. Come Get Me
9. 2nd Childhood
10. Classic (Better Than I've Ever Been) (DJ Premier Remix) W/ Rakim, KRS One & Kanye West
11. Turn Up The Mic (DJ Premier Remix) W/ Bumpy Knuckles & DJ Premier
12. Regeneration W/ DJ Premier & The Berkley Symphony
13. Hip Hop W/ Scarface, DJ Premier & DJ Khaled
14. Wave Gods W/ ASAP Rocky & DJ Premier
15. Beat Breaks W/ DJ Premier
16. Define My Name W/DJ Premier

Another thing people are overlooking they've put in an extra year into this, No offense to Roc or Ransom but they aren't Nas. Preemo understands the legacy the history he has with Nas the expectation level. I think they'll deliver a 4 mic album at worst

Honestly fam that's a perfect album!

Having expectations aint a bad thing. If y'all have no expectations then i suppose yall will like it if it's just a mediocre album?

It should be at least as good as KD 3 and Magic 1, if not better than those

If KD 3 and Magic 1 is the floor, I'll be very happy
