Nas - King’s Disease (Discussion Thread)

[Burger King]

Didn’t want to get my hopes up too much with all the positive reviews but this has exceeded all expectations .. such a cohesive album, everything flows perfectly and hit boy has done a great job - best album I’ve listened to all year for sure .. Nas did not disappoint

 

[Roxx the King]

I would rank this slightly below LIG.

 

[Cloud McFly]

First three songs are 5/5, and Ultra Black is decent, but after that it falls off a cliff for me. Full Circle, The Cure (2nd half), and Spicy are fire though.

What u guys think of this compared to LIG?

Hard to tell. Gonna have to give King’s Disease a few more spins and then play them back to back.


I am firmly of the opinion that LIG is a classic, its also an album that helped me personally when I was in Afghanistan and then later when I ended up going through a divorce so there’s emotional attachment to it.


Kings Disease just sounds so FRESH. Its almost a modern day I Am that didn’t suffer the leak. Nas’s flow is PERFECT, the features are SEAMLESS, and we got a fukking FIRM REUNION IN 2020.


Ima need a minute lol

“For a black man to be rich , they say we have to sacrifice our family members, like we aren’t savvy enough to make outstanding figures. Ain’t nobody in no cult!!!”

So the number 8 untitled track seems like the dream joint @LoveDeluxe hook is saying "you me let me get the body started".

What u guys think of this compared to LIG?

I love LIG, but it's an exhausting album. Not in a bad way, though. Just the topics are heavy outside of a few joints like "You'll Never Understand". Like somebody in this thread said earlier, KD has a more chill vibe but Nas is still killing it. It's like two completely different moods.

Two version of this album on play music.....the version without the track listing have 14 songs and the version with the track name have 13 songs

The track with The Dream titled “It Ain’t Love But I Love It” was removed from the official tracklisting for unknown reasons.

Maybe sample clearance issues as that was rumored to be the Sade sampled song that Swizz premiered on Instagram a few months ago
