Nas To Let Fans Own Shares Of Music Through NFTS
Rapper Nas announced today that he will release nonfungible tokens (NFTs) that will let his fans own a stake in two of the songs, “Ultra Black” and “Rare.”
Users who buy and hold the NFTs, dubbed limited digital assets (LDAs), will get a specific percentage of streaming royalty ownership depending on the token that they hold.
“Ultra Black” comes from Nas’ 2021 Grammy award-winning Album King’s Disease, while “Rare” is from the follow-up 2022 Grammy-nominated album King’s Disease II. The former song will have a limited supply of 760 tokens, while the latter will have 1,110.
Both will be released on Jan. 11, and buyers will be able to buy the tokens on a first-come, first-served basis. The LDAs will be sold through the NFT music platform, Royal.
