Nas - Magic 2 (Discussion thread)

[Awesome Wells]

After hearing this then going back to the KD series I need something sonically better. The beauty of those albums is the combination of how lyrical it is along with really good production. Griselda is still sonically the best doing it now, I wouldn’t mind if Nas uses something like that. Didn’t Dave East get Westside to produce his album?

I was at the barbershop earlier, and dudes said the same. That Nas should get WSG to "curate" his next album and get him on some Griselda production. That's another combo that I think would be really dope. Get Conway and Benny on some tracks with him.

nikkas tweakin n geekin? HUH?! HUH?!

 

[The Dust King]

yeah they were all from magic 2, someone online just posted the snippets a week early, prior to even the IG announcement
i tried the best i can to stay off this thread with that information until the very last minute that it happened

appreciate not spreading them

have you verified all the snippets are the same from the album (possible variations

i really hate this new money oriented Nas.

I'm like a whole lot of loot, I'm like crisp money

My duration's infinite money wise

the hoe had green eyes i fell in love with her

I think Glorious is dope af. I think a lot of people missed it because it was on a Cormega album.

or perhaps the dialed in Nas verse...

Oh lord. . The producer nas should work with will be a never ending thing I see. Nobody is successful or as good as nas but everybody knows what he should do

Nas on some Daringer or Griselda-Esqe Alchemist production might be good. Conway and Benny actually took a photo with Nas so a feature from him might’ve been made already.

Nas “fans” hellbent on bringing down a grammy winning partnership for a man whose production with said artist they didn’t stream 4 years ago




Nas “fans” hellbent on bringing down a grammy winning critically acclaimed partnership for a man whose only association with said artist is an overrated remix tape from TWENTY YEARS AGO

Same way I feel

Edit: I know the 21 Savage joint bothers a lot of cats. Doesn’t bother me

Fits perfectly on the album

You're a little too bothered over what Nas fans would like to see. People wanting MC's and producers to make music together shouldn't upset you this much. It's not that serious.

Take a breather, bro.

cats gotta stop with this Alchemist shyt. Y’all getting as bad as the “he needs to do a Primo album” cats. Alchemist is dope but y’all need to stop.

Nas don’t need Alc. he don’t need to be chasing the Griselda sound. He don’t need to bring back the illmatic team. He doesn’t need Rick Ross to EP his shyt. He doesn’t need the Magic series to be strictly 90s influenced.

Nas just needs to do what the fukk he wants. You either rock with it or you don’t. If he listened to everyone who didn’t like his shyt he wouldn’t be who he is today and we wouldn’t even have this KD/Magic run at all.

If you prefer the other KD/Magic joints that’s fine, those are still there. Listen to those. To me though, this joint is fire so I’ll be bumping this for the time being.

There’s an oft repeated truism about Nas that he peaked too early; scaling the Himalayan heights of genius on ‘Illmatic’, some venture that the Queens

I've been saying the same for years. Fat Joe said he was trying to get Nas to meet him in the studio when he was there to work on songs for HWH7 with WSG, but Nas couldn't make it. But that type of production is perfect for Nas, so I'm hoping they can get him in there at some point to put some sh*t together.

exactly....Nas and Hit have developed their own sound and chemistry and it works for them very well.

We all thought that Nas and Kanye would be a match made in heaven and it came out to be some mid.
