excellent write up.
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

Technically the other version of memory lane is a remix
If you think about it Royce is one of the few top caliber mc that has never been on a track with Nas yet.
Kendrick being the biggest one of course.
Andre 3000 as well but he was on that Carter IV interlude and Nas on the Outro and it's the same beat, so it could count as the same track.

Royce is going through some type of medical issue that impacts his voice/rapping so I assume he wasn't healthy enough to be on there. He produced on the Big L album, maybe he's just hyping up the project since he's down with Mass Appeal.

I said to my boy that I had feeling Royce was going to be on the album, they’ve always praised each other in interviews.
Wouldn’t be surprised if Premo hooked up the collaboration.
Royce & Premo have incredible chemistry.

Nas and Royce are to Primo what De Niro and Di Caprio are to Scorsese, so it wouldn't surprise me if he's there
