Nas Reflects on Pivotal ‘I Am…’ Album Leaking, Says Nipsey Hussle Wanted to Make a Documentary About It

Released last Friday, Magic 2 is highlighted by the previously released single “One Mic, One Gun” featuring 21 Savage, as well as a brand new guest spot from 50 Cent, who appears on “Office Hours.”

In the days leading up to the release of Magic 2, Fif took to Instagram to tease his appearance on the album. “Yal ain’t herd [sic] me in minute, @nas felt like it was time so it’s done,” the G-Unit rapper wrote.

Speaking to Complex about the making of It Was Written in 2016 for its 20th anniversary, Nas mentioned wanting to make “a street album with Marley Marl” at the time, and how leaks made him “rethink my whole album.”

“After a while, some of my songs appeared as promos on the radio with all kinds of n***as rapping on them—meanwhile, I hadn’t even finished working on the song for my album,” Nas recalled in the piece by Insanul Ahmed and Rob Kenner. “I had a song called ‘On the Real’ that I didn’t finish, and before I could, I’m hearing it on the radio with people rapping on it. I couldn’t understand that. I was hurt and I knew I couldn’t work like that. So, I had to rethink my whole album. I didn’t know what to do at that point because if I couldn’t do it with Marley, I didn’t have a plan B.”
