‘Nasir’ is the new, self-titled album by New York Rap legend Nas. The album’s executive producer Kanye West teased the release on Twitter earlier this summer, before its live-streamed premiere last night underneath the Queensboro Bridge in Nas’ native Queens. With features from The Dream featuring heavily, beats by Ye and of course the seemingly-obligatory 070 Shake feature, ‘Nasir’ feels a little more like G.O.O.D. Music flexing, rather than a Nas album. Regardless, it’s nice to hear Nas experiment with a break from the typical Boom Bap his bars are usually associated with. Stream below via SoundCloud.
