Nas - NASIR (June 15th), A Kanye/Obama Joint
- Thread starter PhoenixDark
- Start date
Kanye recycling his beats for nas, nas's talent over comes the recycle beats.
I hated Ye and Kid Sees ghost but one thing i can't argue about was how fresh and experimental the underlying production was.
Nas does put his own signature to the production reminder of a younger nas.

I agree. I really hope we get an instrumental album.
The only song on here I like is Everything, I want a version of it without Nas.

Other than Diddy's bullshit on Not for Radio, I'm really enjoying this. Most the beats are fire.
Bonjour is so smooth.

I guess I meant mainstream
But you're right - it's there if you look for it

Solid album but doesn't feel like a Nas album in many ways. I figured Kanye would preview Nas' best moments. Storytelling, hard drums, dark moody production plus some fly Escobar shit, some scratching, etc. This sounds like...a Kanye album featuring Nas. That said, the highs are high. Adam & Eve is amazing. Simple Things is beautiful. Puff complaints aside, that first verse on Not For Radio is great. Bad mixing aside, White Label is fire.
Bonjour is ehh. Everything...I like the first and last verse, and the flows but the track is a chore. Singing is mixed. Honestly the singing is mixed throughout the album. Flow wise this reminds me a lot of 4:44 in terms of there being clear lapses, and in other areas it sounds close to like what you'd expect from a great rapper.
It's early but I don't think this is better than Life Is Good.

Finally sat down and listened to it. The only tracks that really stand out to me are Adam & Eve, Simple Things and Not For Radio. The other four tracks did really nothing for me.
So far:
Kids See Ghosts > Daytona > Ye > Nasir

White Label in general is just fuego
Someone said it eariler but I too really enjoyed these last 4 weeks of kanye production. Loved experiencing the wild reactions to everything here, Beef with blackface Keithsweat, ranking Kanye albums and realizing yeezus is trash, terrible rollout of albums thanks to Mike Dean, listening parties, etc
This community is hilarious when it comes to any kanye related album release

I know I'm responding late. This isn't a new thing from Maga. Kanye has been doing this since he started and it's continually gotten worse. Everyone one of his albums have last minute changes drastic changes to track lists. Scrapping entire albums. Losing songs. Taking tracks from years ago and changing them completely. It's a staple of his process at this point. Even remembering back people were complaining about MBDTF mastering and mixing. Some Good Friday songs didn't come out until days later and some weren't even really mastered. This aint new by any means.

I really liked the reaction from Life of Pablo, but mostly because it was such a shit show.
I loved Daytona but naw Nasir is better imo.
There is not a single bad song in the album. GOOD season has been amazing with all these albums coming out and next week we got the Teyana Taylor joint.
Edit: its so sad how I came out this year being hyped for a new Drake album and now its nonexistent. Pusha really ruined my image of Drake lmao. Plus that Upset track was absolutely mediocre.

Right?! I liked Daytona a lot but there were a few songs I skip over and on an album that's 7 tracks long, that's not so good. But every song on NASIR is great - even the weakest song (Not for Radio) is still pretty good. I also hated KSG, but idk people seem to like that.
The thing with KSG is that I think you gotta be used to Cudi's sound otherwise you will probably be meh on it. For me the i thought it was amazing.
Daytona was great but for some of shit just isn't relatable for me but like I said its still a good album especially for Pusha.

Finally gave it a listen.
Cop shot the kid, Bonjour and Adam and Eve are nice, Not for Radio is alright. The rest I'm not feeling, yet at least.
Nas hasn't put out a solid start to finish album since God's Son though so I didn't have high expectations going in.

Feeling the whole album. Surprised by all the meh in here. Overall pretty mellow but I like that.
I mean it's a Nas album. You don't really get it until you break down and analyze all of he lyrics true fans know that. It takes time but any new Nas music is an event for me.
Dude you're so close. But Stillmatic is better than Life is good.
Dam everyone hates nastradamus lol. I thought it was fine, people exaggerate.

EDIT: nm I reacted based on the screen cap, which is from the Khaled interview. That song is from the scrapped I Am double disc. Hardest Thing To Do Is Stay Alive. Kanye didn't produce it.

This is an unreleased song from 15+ years ago
Yo...
This Nas album is something else. Everything has the potential to be big. I fuck with everything on here though honestly.
Adam and Eve is smooth.

Thanks guys. Just more YouTube lies. But it's full of tracks with misinformation. That being said hopefully more music is on its way, 7 tracks is just the start after such a long wait. Or well, I'd like to think so. Same with Pusha. But he said that he said what he wanted to say.
Wait, really?
I really, really like NASIR but I'm also more of a Kanye fan than a Nas fan. I get that it's not for everyone and that taste is variable but this album is definitely one I'll spin for a while to come.
All I can say about Adam and Eve is "WOW!". I can even say it backwards..."WOW!" What a fucking track. This is like the hip hop I grew up with. Innovative sample, great beat and great flow. I need more of this.
Nasir? More like Basur(a)
This is baaad. Nas basically only has one flow, the lyrics range from OK to conspiracy theory stuff that makes DAMN's bullshit moments look reasonable, the production is only really memorable on 2/7 tracks, the mixing is shite. It's not a good album.

Garbage. Not a single damn track worthy of listening to on repeat. The mixing engineer was either held at gunpoint or high as fuck.
