if this taught us anything, it's that i don't wanna see Nas do an album with single producers :dead:

why expect one producer to carry an album, when he could just get 2 or 3 beats from a handful of producers?
Difference is Alc has done full albums recently that’s been pure heat. From Roc to Gibbs.

I thought the album was solid about what you’d expect from two guys at their age in this era :francis:

They saying this sold 5000 :picard:

5k first week is like the album didn’t exist lol
Nas co-owns Mass Appeal. The first day edition signed vinyl was $125 alone and they sold out of 1000 copies. That's $125k off that one item! They also had others to sell out well like cassettes and cds. Now we got more special editions for preorder, so they aren't hurting financially. I'd rather sell 5k of albums costing $250, $125, $30, etc than to have bragging rights over some streaming numbers. It's simple mathematics. Nobody cares about streaming sales today but teenagers and Drake/Kendrick fans
