Nas - King's Disease III (Discussion Thread)

[Pop123]

Reminisce is a solid video choice my preference would've been Thun or Legit. So many great songs like picking which child is your favorite

Thun and Legit are bangers and fire but that's all they are. "Reminisce" is one of them ones man, that shyt gets people feeling things and all that, lol, the hook and everything. I think this will be the one that gets him some radio spins and all that, watch.

He should get Mary in the video. I still think he should have talked about relationships and things like that instead of himself/his career, just to make it more universal/digestible for everyone, it has that kind of feel with the beat and the drill part...but that's neither here nor there, it's a classic joint either way.

A pure banger. Nas has had so many potential mainstream bangers over these last 4 albums it’s ridiculous. If radio supported him in any type of way, he had hits.

Til My Last Breath

Bear minimum off one album

DJs need to take the game back

Spicy couldn't get on radio. Nas isn't getting radio play doesn't matter what he drops. He doesn't play that game unless he starts making songs with Drake or some shyt

Facts…something is up with that, he burned the wrong bridge somehow. I think this one will get a few spins tho just because I know girls love it…maybe it’s just wishful thinking but if anything is gonna go it would be this one

Spicy woulda got on the radio with Cardi instead of Ferg.

Thun is literally poetry in motion

No doubt, No doubt, No doubt!!

Mass Appeal is independent, I think majors do some more to push labels out and even then older artist doesnt get spin. Probably the same thing with Streaming playlist, though he has found a home on some playlist

Im actually surpirsed that One Mic, One Gun has stayed on the Rap Caviar playlist for weeks now but thats probably cause of 21

Spicy actually charted on both the Billboard Hot 100 (96) and the Rap/R&B Charts (36) its Nas only single from the Kings Disease trilogy to chart on the Billboard Hot 100

Even 30 could have been a banger.

Nah. It's just a money problem and how much you pay radio and streaming platform to get visibility. Majors do it, mass appeal being indépendant don't or can't. It's just that simple

And Replace me would get on the radio with J Cole/Drake instead of Sean.

He doesn’t help himself by not making videos of them, doing remixes and collars etc. 21 Savage has a Nas collab before Drake and Kodak for example, Reminisce could have had a drill remix with other young NY rappers also, even on the first Kings Disease if you replaced Sean with Drake nothing is lost on that track and it probably reaches Top 40. It’s not always the radio djs fault, Mass Appeal need to do more pushing if they truly want ‘Mass Appeal’.

Is this video confirmed?

 

[T.H.E.GOD]

No doubt, No doubt, No doubt!!

Funny part I Enjoy was when he said “thunderous” and it’s like he caught himself and was like “alright” like in a funny humorous was cuz he was o.d.ing with the word during that part. Always makes me love.

Yessir. 3 changes would've made KD1 go Plat. Cardi on Spicy. Drake on Replace Me. And Jay Z on 27 Summers.
