Brooklyn, New York’s legendary emcee Nas, real name Nasir Jones, has just premiered the visual treatment for “Black Magic” – the 4th rap record on the legendary East Coast rapper’s 17th LP “Magic 2”.
Produced by Hit-Boy, who has also executive-produced the lethal 11-track LP, the music video is directed by Razak Ologunebi and arrives within days after Nas premiered the music video for another infectious rap record “Motion” on the massive LP.
“The God, why they so angry like they wishin’ they can just run with
Anything when it comes to Nas? The desperation it shows, Devil is inside of you
Black smoke, black magic on your back, it’s riding you
If I was you, I would watch who I give my power to
I don’t make no coward moves
My solution’s, fuck ton of positive is what I’m producin’
Thought patterns convoluted
Your witchcraft won’t do nothin’, my Jesus piece is too flooded
Rosemarys, rose Cubans, the world addicted to black music,” Nas raps on the hard-hitting track.

The 17th LP by Nas “Magic 2” features a guest verse by former G-Unit affiliate 50 Cent and ‘Slaughter Gang CEO’ 21 Savage. Produced by Hit-Boy, the LP serves as the follow-up to Hit-Boy Produced “King’s Disease III”. Released in November last year, the LP consists of cult rap classics including “30”, “Michael & Quincy” and more.
In fact, “Magic 2” is Nas & Hit-Boy’s fifth back-to-back album within just three years. Besides the latest full-length album and ‘KD III’, Nas and the three-time Grammy-winning “N—– in Paris” superproducer Hit-Boy dropped “King’s Disease II” and “Magic” since August 2020’s “King’s Disease” LP.
Over the weekend, Nas’ iconic rap record label Mass Appeal signed Southern India’s three fierce emcees Dabzee, Vedan & Baby Jean under its roster of Indian artists through Mass Appeal India.
