In terms of the Grammy stuff if they want set things up in their favor...regardless of whether it's a single or not, submit All Bad for Best Rap/Sung Performance. Paak being on the hook gets you points: he's already a Grammy winner and also on Interscope (Aftermath).
Nas could drop weed plates for the next 20 year n it wouldnt change how I think about him. 3 decades of great albums, ya hes cemented
On my 8th play through n findin new lil things i like. This is a really good album by Mr. Jones
This, Nas already cemented.
I'm feeling some tracks, I'm not feeling some tracks but I didn't have super high expectations. Just glad to hear the GOAT still spitting at a high level
For me, LIG just has some tracks I tend to skip over: Daughters, Worlds an Addiction, and Summer on Smash are skippable tracks for me.
The worst I can say about King's Disease is that the Paak song wasn't the classic I wanted it to be. Still a dope track though. Everything else on here is A1.

I was thinking the same thing.
Push Ultra Black for Best Rap Song (it’s culturally relevant and of the times)
Kings Disease for Best Rap Album
All Bad for Best Rap/Sung
Spicy for Best Rap Performance

oh you mean people who fukks with Nas who tired of hearing y'all muthafukkas bickering and nit picking everything he do.
Yeah that's me
Now get off my dikk

The King of Fighters
Yeah, hence me saying some.
After like six listens in some good headphones I didn't think it could get better. But y'all are right, it hits DIFFERENT in the car. The musicality on the production... Man. Hit-Boy is a genius for giving Nas a modern hip-hop sensibility without it feeling forced at all. Every track flows into the next, there is no sameness despite all being the same producer. The cohesion of this album is something else.
And I STILL get goosebumps when Full Circle comes on. Something about that intro and knowing you're now in a reality where The Firm is back together. How does AZ still do something like this:
Dialog supurb, flyest cars on the curb
Word, when I evolved a higher God emerged
AZ made a hell of an impression on anybody who has never heard of him. They must be thinking he's an alien or something.

Funny Dave East dropped around the same time
Should have squeezed Dave in "Spicy" or something

Keep in mind, Nas is the first rapper to drop a classic album in 4 different decades
