Nas Locks In With Hit-Boy With New ‘Magic’ Project, Twitter Is In Awe
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Andrew Lichtenstein / Getty Nas is one of a handful of Hip-Hop artists who has nothing to prove to anyone and has classics in his discography to prove it. The Queensbridge living legend ends 2021 on an extremely high note alongside his cohort Hit-Boy with a new project Magic, a fitting name for a potent body of work.
