Nas has confirmed the impending release of his thirteenth studio album, King’s Disease. As previously promised, the LP was executive produced by Hit-Boy and is due out August 21st via Mass Appeal/Def Jam. As a first listen to the 14-track effort, Nas has shared the lead single, “Ultra Black”.

“We ultra black, grey stone, skin tone, but multi that/ multiple colors, we come in all shades, mostly back,” Nas raps over a balmy, bubbly beat. “Pitch black like a night/ I’m ultra Black/ Sanford and Son rerun jokes are Black/ Oh, yes, oh yes.” There’s a lot to love in this track, and you can hear why Nas was so excited to work with Hit-Boy.

The Queens MC said as much earlier this week in a cryptic teaser trailer for the album and single. “I’ve been trying to do this with this man for years,” Nas said next to Hit-Boy in the studio. Based on “Ultra Black”, the two make quite a pair.

Of course, we already knew that, as this isn’t the first time they’ve collaborated. Hit-Boy produced “Royalty” off Nas’ compilation album from last year, The Lost Tapes 2. Since then, the producer’s currency has only risen, particularly after he joined Jay Electronica for the excellent A Written Testimony and released his latest joint project with Dom Kennedy, Also Known as Courtesy of Half-a-Mil.

Cardi B’s new album era is seemingly upon us.

The rapper took to her Instagram Stories to re-share a fan’s post, in which a snippet of an upcoming song is teased. “I ain’t even got dressed / Any L that I took come after YS / Oh man, oh man, oh man, oh man,” she declares on the track. Check out the Instagram Story before it disappears here.

The teasers comes just a week after Cardi’s estranged husband Offset took to his own Stories to encourage the “Bodak Yellow” rapper to drop her new music. In the video, the Migos star is seen bobbing his head and loving the music with a satisfied stank face on, and since the video had no audio, viewers were left to their imagination in interpreting the caption. “Stop being scary and drop the album” it read, along with “s–t goes crazy [fire emoji],” he wrote.

What’s your thoughts on the new viral audio, is it a hit or miss?
