If this is true The Collaboration album will be an Hip Hop Classic. IF they don't just slap it together.

 

[AL JIEH]

I'm a fan of Nas' music so I care...especially considering his last album failed to impress. Nas' problem has always been consistency, so hopefully he gets a new team at DefJam that can help him out with that. And yea, I'm waitin on that Nas/Primo collab if anything.

Might get him more sales, but I bet it'll get him less money per record sold.
