New York rapper Nas is at a loss for words. The hip-hop veteran has dished on his NASIR album listening party in Queens and putting out his much-needed Life Is Good follow-up.
In a new interview, Nasty Nas discussed holding a listening party in his hometown and how humble he is to still create music in 2018.
“I haven’t thought of a word yet for it,” Nas said when asked what it’s like to work with Kanye West. “I’ll come up with it soon. … I’m just happy to be here. God is the greatest. Just happy to be here. Doing what we do, it’s a hobby of mine to do rap. I’m just loving it.” (Big Boy TV)
Yesterday, reality TV star Kim Kardashian – who is married to NASIR executive producer Kanye West – confirmed Nas’ listening party plans.

Earlier in the week, West updated fans waiting on Nas’ next solo album.
Just wanted to say I’m up in the morning working on the Nas album and I’m so humbled by all the love we’re getting on these albums. We’re still the kids we used to be.

We’re here creating in real time just having fun. I hear the albums blasting out of the cars when I walk down the street. Kids come up to me and tell me their favorite songs. We’re experimenting with new sounds structures and ideas.

We’re trying new ideas without the fear of not being perfect… It’s just a gut feeling sometimes… just making stuff with your friends…
