Full Nas Magic 3 Album Lyrics

Capping off one of the most remarkable runs in modern Hip-Hop history, Magic 3 marks the trilogy of Nas’ second album series executively produced by Hit-Boy, the final piece in the producer-rapper duo’s incredible album run. Alongside the King’s Disease trilogy, Nas and Hit’ have flooded the music world with six albums in three years, with all being released through Nas’ very own record label, Mass Appeal.

Released on Nas’ 50th birthday, and the year Hip-Hop turns 50 as well, Nas first teased the album during the intro track to Magic 2, “Abracadabra”, when he rapped:

2020 when we did the first one, five album run, not a cursed one, it’s a blessed one
By the time y’all hear this, we be halfway through the next one

He stayed true to his word after posting a cryptic video with the caption “The Finale” on social media. Similar to the second Magic album, the LP came with little orchestrated hype, as Nasir ultimately announced the final Hit-Boy-produced album on September 12th, 2023.

Nas revealed the tracklist for his seventeenth studio album in the hours before it’s release. The LP contains fifteen songs, with one feature (Lil Wayne on “Never Die”).

All told, the duo’s six albums have produced over 80 tracks, with memorable guest appearances from The Firm, Eminem, A$AP Rocky, 50 Cent, and Lil Wayne along the way. As this streak of high-quality music has etched it’s name into the history books, the next step in Nas’ illustrious career remains to be seen.
