Nas always has the dopest track titles, I remember going crazy over all the Street's Disciple track names before the release, and last year with LT2

these aren't as special, a little vague

but I'm excited to find out what these are about:

27 Summers - self-explanatory, but still excited for the inevitable nostalgia... would be dope if it were a concept track where he ran through all 27 summers... the different kicks, different cars, fashions/trends, other rappers, who he was beefing with, etc.

King's Disease -- title track/intro track. Wouldn't be surprised if the production was similar to Not For Radio, or it sampled that piece of Mozart in the teaser trailer, expecting an epic intro like Nas usually provides. Assuming he lets us in on what King's Disease means

Blue Benz -- probably a straight banger, brag raps
Car #85 -- no idea what this refers to, police brutality?

Til The War is Won -- most intrigued by the fact that this is the track with Durk, expecting some street warrior shyt
10 Points -- I like the theory another poster had in here about it being a crown, I'd love for it to be Nas' assertion of why he is King and always has been


just my speculation, I'm excited regardless and I'm sure some of these titles are throwing us off a little, like how Adult Film wasn't what we thought it was going to be last summer

can't wait

This forum goes full blown retard whenever Nas is about to drop. People lose all sense.

This thread is already going on 36 pages and the actual release is still a week away :deadmanny:

That's complete great artist pull and power! After over 27 years as well!

I agree, as pretty much every album he does has a Zone Out or a Summer on Smash. But to criticize those songs people here go all types of mad because he is their goat. Then he's "trying new things" or "having fun". But what's wrong with expecting someone who is considered the greatest to not make trash songs?

Summer on smash was fire
