Nas – It Was Written Gold & Black Vinyl 2LP NAD 23

Description

Expected release 14/10/23

It Was Written is the second studio album by American rapper Nas, originally released on July 2, 1996, by Columbia Records. After the modest commercial success of his debut album Illmatic (1994), Nas pursued a more polished, mainstream sound for It Was Written. Produced largely by Trackmasters, it departed from the debut’s raw, underground aesthetic and embraced mafioso and gangsta themes. The recording also marked the first appearance of Nas’s short-lived supergroup The Firm, featuring the rappers Foxy Brown, AZ, and Cormega.
