Nas, the legendary rapper, has just set the internet on fire with thrilling news – his upcoming album, Magic 3, is set to drop this week on Thursday, September 14th, which also marks Nas’ 50th birthday. This announcement comes as a delightful surprise for fans who have been eagerly awaiting new music from the iconic artist.
Magic 3 follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, Magic 2, released earlier this summer in July. Magic 2 saw Nas collaborating with heavyweights like 50 Cent on the track “Office Hours” and 21 Savage on “One Mic, One Gun.” These collaborations added an extra layer of excitement to the album, and fans can’t wait to see what surprises Magic 3 holds.
Just last week, Nas posted a cryptic video on his Instagram account, teasing “The Finale.” This cryptic message fueled speculation about whether Nas was contemplating retirement. However, with the announcement of Magic 3, it’s crystal clear that Nas is far from calling it quits. In fact, this album confirms the completion of Nas’ remarkable trilogy of Hit Boy-produced albums.
The partnership between Nas and Hit Boy has been nothing short of magical. It all began with their collaboration on the critically acclaimed 2020 LP, “King’s Disease,” which not only earned Nas a Grammy for Best Rap Album but also set the stage for a musical journey that fans have been savoring. Following the success of “King’s Disease,” Nas and Hit Boy dropped two sequels, “King’s Disease II” and “King’s Disease III,” solidifying their place as a dynamic duo in the music industry. And let’s not forget the surprise Christmas gift fans received in 2021 when Nas released “Magic.”
But that’s not all – Nas has even more excitement in store for his fans. Later this month, he’ll be hitting the road for the European leg of his joint “NY State of Mind Tour” with the iconic Wu-Tang Clan. This tour promises to be an unforgettable experience for fans of both Nas and Wu-Tang Clan.
As if the album announcement and upcoming tour weren’t enough to get fans buzzing, Nas also shared a sneak peek of the album art. While we can’t give away too much, one thing’s for sure: it’s a visual treat that perfectly complements the anticipation building around Magic 3.
So, mark your calendars, set your reminders, and get ready to celebrate Nas’ 50th birthday with the release of “Magic 3.” With Nas and Hit Boy at the helm, this album is poised to be nothing short of magical, and it’s a gift fans won’t soon forget.
