Nas getting hype to drop a new album..

"There's So Many Things That Ain't Been Said"

Much like last summer's release, Nas said life is inspiring his next album's content.

"Life. I feel like Alexander Graham Bell, knowing that he's about to do something that's never been done.
I'm bursting with excitement, but focused more than I've been in the past.
I'm at a place where there's so many things that ain't been said.
Things I've seen that I never talked about that I wanna share.
I'm so excited to tell this story because it's real sh*t. It's needed.
I hate to sound like that--to say it's needed for hip-hop--but f*ck it. It is." (VIBE)

Back in April, Nasty Nas hinted at plans tot announce his new album title.

"Just wana keep inspiring you. That's my J-O!!," Nas tweeted April 2nd.

"Eh-um.... Dropping next album title next month."

"Beautiful life man I can't believe it! How., why, how we get here ? ?!
? bless 2 ALL us still out chea! meant 2b. #rare individuals" (Nas' Twitter)

In January, Nasir Jones analyzed whether or not his latest album is a certified hip-hop banger.

"It's cool, you can call my record a classic; I'm not tripping.
Time will really make me feel it or not, and then if a year from now, another two years from now, I really feel like it's a classic and no one else does, I'm gonna make noise! I'm gonna complain!" he laughed.
"I'm gonna campaign for that title. ... If it's not a classic, that's cool.
That means there's a different title for it that is a different meaning for the record.
It wasn't a worldwide classic or a nationwide classic or a 'hood classic but it ... was important and it was incredible.
You don't have to always be classic: You can be incredible, you can be meaningful or needed." (MTV)

Last year, Slaughterhouse's Royce Da 5'9 gave ? 's Son props for his LP.

Aside from their own record, Royce has been listening to Nas' latest Life Is Good.
"I got Nas' album on repeat," he revealed. "I take it to all different eras of hip-hop.
I'll listen to 'Accident Murderers,' 'World's an Addiction,' and then I'll go back to It Was Written." (Rap-Up)

    I love LIG & still bang it. We'll have to wait a few before we call it classic though like with any project.

    My favorite album from last year together with Kendrick's & Sean P's.

    I can't call LIG a classic with a song like Summer On Smash on it. I think there was another song that wasn't very good...did Nas have a song with MJB on LIG or am I think of GKMC?

    Both albums have a MJB feature. On Life Is Good, it was "Reach Out". I agree "Summer On Smash" and "Reach Out" were the worst two songs on the album. "Reach Out" has some of the best verses on the album though.

    I'm hyped for Nas's next album because it'll be interesting to hear how he follows up Life Is Good. Nas is in a zone, so I'm sure the album will deliver.

    I'm sorry.

    There's no albums in history without a bad song.

    But whatever. LIG was great but no classic.
