The Chauncey Hollis Project was really good so Hit-Boy on production is gonna be fire :banderas:

Nas has been sounding really sharp for the last 2 years so I’m looking forward this. Lost Tapes 2 wasn’t as good as the prequel but the best songs on there were really good so I’m not concerned about the quality.

I feel like a lot of dudes dissing Hitboy in this thread have never listened to the Chauncey Hollis project.

it’s the main reason I’m so excited about this.

Hitboy’s put in work this year with the CH Project and the Half-A-Mil album. He’s a slept artist though so I’m not surprised at the reaction by people in this thread.

Yeah Im nervous brehs:francis:

When I heard Nas was in the studio with Hit Boy quite regularly I was hoping it was just gonna be for vault purposes and then pick stuff later on wherever it may fit. He can make the type of beats you'd want Nas on (The Chauncy Hollis tape, 1train as an example) but I dont know what Nas vision is. Usually when he makes an album there is a theme and a motivation and this time around it seems like its is just "lets go in the studio with this guy and see what happens:mjlit:" Which I'll be honest I dont know in 2020 how thats gonna be. I didnt hate Lost Tapes 2 at all and I was kinda shocked it caught so much hate. Nasir I understand. But in both cases I dont think they were that bad but holy shyt you saw the reaction not just on social media but with the critics :picard: Maybe cause artist are more diligent or theres still hang up on things in his personal life but he also doesnt critical love he did before even for other albums that werent all that to listeners.


So I know dont man. Theres certain modern producers I'd like to see him with (Harry Fraud, Darringer) Theres guys hes had a chemistry with I'd like to see him with (Preem, Pete, Alc, Salaam) and more importantly theres exec producers I'd like to see handle his albums more (No ID)

Dont know what the themes are and thats gonna be the trick: Is he gonna even sound bored of himself rapping the same stuff. Do I want him at his age and perception of his rhyming bout that (You saw how Nasir got taken apart)



And its hella unusual for him to drop a project 3rd straight year in a row. Also its getting quite weird not knowing what to expect except on the day. Before that you always heard 5-6 cuts from his album a month or two out to get a feel for the project and nowadays I dont know what to expect


I guess we'll get the Benny joint but then also Burna, Davido and Fivio too?:patrice:

It does seem WAY TOO SOON between an annoucement and release for it to dropping especialy for a Nas album






Im ok if its just a single:hubie:
Thats how things are done now, NASIR and The Lost Tapes 2 dropped soon after the announcements.
You dont post such a teaser only for a track to be released ten days after, release dates are usually reserved for albums, mixtapes or EP, not singles.
