It gets better with repeat listens. Was skeptical on the first listen but now it’s cool. Definitely the weakest project of this run. Feels like they rushed it. But my favorite rapper gave me 5 more albums in 3 years…after I thought he was finished. I can’t complain.
This is how I feel too

Abracadabra isn't that hot but the rest is good, and since abracadabra is the first track it's a tone setter so that might be why people feek a way about this project

Crazy when you think about it, it was never the plan for Nas and Hitboy to do 5 albums over the span in three years. The original idea was for Nas and Hit to a Valentines Day ep (It's the reason why KD1 had so many song dedicated to women)

This is definitely not what I was expecting, and that's a good thing. I like how they keep switching it up. I don't think this one is my favorite, but I appreciate it not sounding like a bunch of extras
But that's what it sounds like... kings disease vault tracks.

Don’t w/ fif, and bookeem woodbine are solid. The rest sound like he’s trying too hard to be “modern.”

Why doesn’t Nas work w/ Griselda’s production teams and Alc? Tired of this faux-ATL sounding ish, I want it to sound NYC

Not a fan of hit-boy with legacy NYC artist

It’s not bad, just doesn’t interest me
