Lost Tapes is easily my most played Nas album, that shyt has saved me on so many occasions.

yeh those three can never be touched to me. Everything else competes to be his 4th best.

on Truth I love when Nas says ‘can’t fukk with me’. You know with him blacking out on that track he was really in that zone of no one is touching me when he said that. You felt he fully meant it. And no lies told

Nas really might have thee best and the 2nd best rap albums this year.... I literally heard no other rap album this year outside of a few songs on Banks shyt so take that for what it's worth, lol...I just know Nas's offerings were both exceptional. Is Magic eligible for the Grammy or was it released too late in the year? Imagine both albums got nominated for best rap album,

Can't help but feel this is a small jab at Jay. With the Ether making your soul burn slow.

follow the context of the verse

 

[Pop123]

I think either "Wave gods" or "Ugly" is the best song on the album...I cant decide which. Wave gods is an amazing rap song...that should probably be the single, just on some pure hip hop shyt.

Most played song from each Album?

KD1: 27 Summers
KD2: Count Me In
Magic: The Truth

KD1: The Cure
KD2: Nas is Good
KD3: Meet Joe Black

KD2 was the only close one with Count Me In and Store Run closely behind.

fukking fire.

Joe Black, Ugly, 40-16 Building, The Truth

Speechless and Joe Black are straight QB shyt

These the type of beats I wanna hear Nas on, not the mainstream stuff - not interested in hearing man on tracks with Lil Durk and Big Sean

Only legends deserve to touch booth with Esco

I don't see the problem with him fukking with them nikkas. You're being rather elitist.

 

[Slim Charles]

Most played:

KD1: Car #85
KD2: Store Run
Magic: Speechless

Although from the three albums The Cure probably my favourite track

 

[HHID]

You mean this one?

OH that was it? In my mind the no cameos etc was almost full page, but that's probably coz I'm now

 

[HHID]

Was looking forward to their review, I like their discussions often. Will give it a watch today

 

[Sankofa Alwayz]

I don't get folk saying they don't feel his production

I'm baffled bruh

I’ve noticed it’s usually from a bunch of self-proclaimed “Real Hip Hop” old nikkas too. I be seeing that bullshyt about Hit’s production coming outta their mouths on IG, even in the comment sections under some of the Magic promotional posts from Premo’s page.

"This album blows I Am completely out the water".

Lol, big facts

 

[prophecypro]

Magic was released too late. He would have to qualify for the next year Grammy and if KD3 drops them 2 can prolly be in the running together. What I will say is this album may help the decision making for KD2 tho.

What happened to all the critic reviews?
