    The ironic thing is that Nas' Illmatic was one of the reasons rappers started working with various producers on the same album.
    And yet, after all these years, if Nas and Hitboy keep up this beautiful chemistry, it'll be a very strong argument for why it's probably better to stick with one producer.
    Full circle.

    I remember back in my high school days listening to "Illmatic" at a friend's house on cassette tape in the morning before school and my mind was blown. 30 years later, he's still dropping albums. Also, it's not like Nas is just going through the motions and dropping mediocre albums, he's still dropping incredible albums.

      Premo does the same beats over and over....Loop soul sample, similar drum pattern, and other rapper's lyrics scratched into the hook...I think Nas has evolved past that sound at this point. The music he does now fits a 50 year old man better. Hit boy is more diverse and refined.
