It feels like we're getting a major return from a lot of artists this month. Nicki finally came out of her three month hiding, J. Cole delivered a new album last week and Kanye West is back on Twitter. 'Ye's been dropping philosophical gems, pissing people off with who he aligns with politically, but more importantly, he's finally shared the release dates for some long-awaited projects. Last night, he revealed the release date for Nas' follow up to 2012's Life Is Good which is set to drop on June 15th. Now, he's given some insight to the project.
While information on any of the projects Kanye's been working on has been relatively scarce, he's been letting loose a bit of info on Twitter about what to expect. Today, the rapper has given us a bit more insight to the Nas album that he's producing.
"I feel like im 18 year old again when I make beats for Nas," he wrote on Twitter.
We're definitely going to be hearing more soul samples on this upcoming Nas album and we couldn't be more stoked for that.
Aside from the update on Nas' project, the rapper also praised Donald Glover earlier today. 'Ye's been emphasizing the importance of being a "free thinker" and he believes that Glover falls into the category. Maybe we'll see a Kanye x Childish Gambino collab on his upcoming album?
