According to the NY Daily News, rappers Jay-Z and Nas may be dropping a collaborative LP in the near future:
Rumors continue to swirl about Jay-Z’s still-unconfirmed new record label, Carter Music Group. We hear that Jay is partnering with rapper Nas on an album of duets, “The Kings of Hip Hop,” to be released on the label early next year. Jay’s rep is keeping tight-lipped.
At the risk of reveling my bias . . . I think its a bad idea! Hip-hop collabos have not exactly faired well with fans and even though we all loved him and R.Kelly, most of us forgot about it rather quickly and probably never think to include the two albums they did together in either of their discographies. So, as much as having two rap giants do a whole album together sounds good in theory, my sense is that it will feel like the NBA All-Star game: lots of talent but mostly boring.
What do you think?
