Nas is Leaking.

So it looks as if the new Nas album, Untitled, has sprung a leak. One by one, track by track, this album is spreading across the internet. I posted "Breathe" earlier this morning, but since then 4 more joints have surfaced just today. That doesn't even include the 5 other tracks (N.I.G.G.E.R., Black President, Fried Chicken, Sly Fox, Hero) that have popped up in the past month.

Which begs the question: Is this happening on purpose? Weezy's album leaked the week before its release, and he sold a million records in the first week. People speculated that it actually HELPED his album sales. Interesting. I wonder if Nas is trying to recreate that magic. Only time will tell. We all know Nas doesn't move units like Weezy/Kanye/50, so i guess he needs all the help he can get.

With that being said, I'll try to help the little homie out. Here are some more tracks off the album. What are your thoughts? I'm feeling a couple songs, but as a whole album, I'm still on the fence. Every song I've heard has been maaaaad low key, political and intellectual. I understand where he's coming from, that he's trying to make a point through controversy. I understand the importance of free speech, and I value what he is doing. BUT...For me, it's summer time, and I want some fun and uplifting carefree music. This might way too heavy on the brain for me right now. This feels like a fall/winter release, not summer. I've been super mad skeptical when it comes to Nas releases. I feel like he always sets standards so high and fails to deliver. But I'm a hater.

Enjoy.
