Mass Appeal Drops Timelines For Nas, DJ Premier, Big L & De La Soul Albums
It has been an incredible yr for hip-hop veterans dropping nice albums, particularly these popping out of Mass Attraction. Their “Legend Has It” collection in 2025 already boasts releases from Slick Rick, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, and most lately, the partly posthumous Mobb Deep album Infinite (RIP Prodigy). Now, the baton passes to De La Soul‘s LP, Huge L’s posthumous effort (RIP), and the joint Nas and DJ Premier document to shut the yr out.
Nas and DJ Premier constructed a great deal of hype, because the longtime collaborators proceed to face as two revered icons in New York rap and past. However there’s much more to share. Per HipHopDX, at a New York Comedian-Con panel on Friday (October 10), Esco and Preemo appeared alongside lots of their “Legend Has It” friends – together with the surviving De La members Posdnuos and Maseo (RIP Trugoy The Dove), The Chef, GFK, and Slick Rick – to speak about their Marvel comedian ebook collaboration and their subsequent albums. The Illmatic spitter’s collab album with Premier will come out in December. Nevertheless, we do not have a selected launch date or title but.
De La Soul New Album
Huge L’s Harlem’s Best: Return Of The King, however, will drop on October 31. “It is a full circle second. And we’re excited for y’all to listen to what we’ve been engaged on,” his household said. “As a few of you might have seen, many Huge L songs have been eliminated from streaming providers over the previous few years. These songs have been unmixed/unmastered, samples weren’t cleared and most of the producers weren’t paid or credited correctly. Because of the workforce at @MassAppeal we might be re-releasing one of the best variations of those songs. Uncommon freestyles and some surprises…”
Elsewhere, De La Soul’s Cabin In The Sky will launch in November of this yr. It is a nod to an all-Black musical movie from 1943, and a tribute to the late Trugoy The Dove. “We’re working and dealing [on the album], and I come throughout this film,” Posdnuos shared on the Comedian Con panel. “And I’m like, ‘Yo, this title is loopy!’ Cabin within the Sky. Instantly, I felt Dave.” We won’t wait to listen to these hopefully stellar information.
