Nas - King's Disease III (Discussion Thread)

[InstantKlassik]

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

Why the hell would Jay be on 27 summers?

 

[Ironman]

Grt Light should've been the one from this album

It fits his sound..

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

It managed to chart for a week but I agree, it would have definitely made noise with someone like Cardi. Looking at Spotify, that 21 Savage track is the most streamed Nas song since it came out, and has more spins than anything on KD3. That's the game. Big features, "moments" and surprises.

Crazy thing about Nas Spotify chart only 2 songs have help. 8 out the top 10 are solo efforts (unless you count Pete on the World is Yours)

Jay woulda went crazy on that shyt it fits his sound perfectly and it honestly woulda been the best Jay/Nas collab. Not that DJ Khaled luxurious shyt he be tryna do with them two.

He should do a remix when Max B gets out. I swear I wish I was an A&R. Lol

Nas isn't gonna be on radio but i just seen the trailer for John Wick 4 the other day and was Nas song playing you know once NBA playoffs begin gonna be played as well.

At this point in his career he's not going to collaborate with a big name just to get on the charts Radios loss imo

I'm just saying if he gonna get on tracks with mainstream artists. Pick the correct mainstream artists. Make it worthwhile.

judging by how great the music is he doesn't need to. Not many can say they have double digit Plat multi plat gold albums

I get it, i always wanted a video for You won't see me tonight with Aaliyah, that would have been insane... he prolly didn't even think about it

that song was starting to get hot 97 play but he moved on to Nastradamus. I Am had one of the biggest opening weeks that year 470K sold 1st week but nikkaz forgot Nas MC'd

I think @InstantKlassik meant that thematically it wouldn't make sense, since Jay was still rapping like the Fu-Schnickens when Nas blew up.

Nas has a few years of relevancy on Hov.

That joint was some middle of the mall shyt, lol. Nas the best and I love Aaliyah but yeah...nah. I always wished he did a video for "Still Dreamin" with Kanye, loved that record, they both killed it, and with Kanye it woulda probably got some spins.
