The Listening Party For Nas’ Kanye West-Produced Album, ‘Nasir,’ Stream On Youtube
It’s been a long time. Nas shouldn’t have left us. But he did, with 2012’s Life Is Good proving a worthwhile farewell. Maintenant, six years later, life is still good, as a new Nas album has entered the fold. To make matters even better, the project produced entirely by Kanye West, who has been riding a creative hot-streak of late. If you’re of a certain age, there’s a strong chance that you’re unfamiliar with the legend that is Nasir Jones. If so, worry not, for this could very well prove a worthwhile introduction to newcomers. For the longtime devotees, the discovery will be all the more exciting.
Maintenant, with the self-titled Nasir set to drop at midnight (though Kanye’s recent projects have been inconsistent in their punctuality), those chomping at the bit will have a chance to live out the experience in real time. Like Ye & Kids See Ghosts before it, the Nas album is set to be live-streamed, this time via Mass Appeal & Be-At TV. Should you be interested, head over there to catch the listening party. Naturally, the event is set to take place on Nas’ home turf of Queens, a testament to his homespun legacy.

Nasir was produced by Kanye West, who recently tweeted, “I feel like I’m 18 year[s] old again when I make beats for Nas.” The project is the latest in Kanye’s series of five planned albums in five consecutive weeks, following Pusha-T’s Daytona, his own ye, and Kids See Ghosts with Kid Cudi. The final release, an album from Teyana Taylor, is due on June 22. Kanye previously shared a working tracklist for Nasir; it is unconfirmed whether it is the final and official listing. Find that below.

New York rapper Nas and Kanye West‘s NASIR album listening party is as lit as you’d expect. The hip-hop duo have treated fans to a live stream of the new studio release.
