Nas, a legendary figure in the world of rap music, continues to captivate audiences with his impactful contributions to the genre. He has a rich history of classic albums, exceptional lyricism, and a commitment to releasing top-notch material, even in the later stages of his career. On July 21, 2023, he delighted fans with “Magic 2,” a collaborative project with producer Hit-Boy. This album serves as a sequel to “Magic,” which was unveiled on Christmas Eve in 2021. “Magic 2” offers memorable moments, including features from 50 Cent on “Office Hours” and 21 Savage on “One Mic, One Gun.”

Just a couple of weeks ago, Nas treated fans to the music video for the track “Motion.” This video had a haunting atmosphere with dark color palettes and intriguing shark imagery. The eerie production of the song paired perfectly with the visuals, creating a memorable experience. Now, Nas is back with another set of visuals for the song “Black Magic.” This is certainly an exciting development for fans.

The “Black Magic” music video boasts bright and colorful backgrounds, creating a totally different vibe compared to “Motion.” In this video, Nas is seen with two women as they approach his grand mansion. However, one of the women appears to be under some sort of spell, giving off an air of being lost and entranced by Nas’ hypnotic presence. The dreamy and repetitive elements in Hit-Boy’s beat harmonize beautifully with the trippy and looping imagery throughout the video.

The “Black Magic” music video showcases Nas’ ability to create engaging visual stories that complement his lyrical artistry, making it yet another compelling addition to his music catalog.

Lyrics

[Chorus: Lil’ Grimm | Nas]
Black magic, voodoo power, cast a spell upon these tricks
Yes, I’m kind of crazy since you niggas talking petty shit
Black magic, voodoo power, cast a spell upon these tricks (Uh)
Yes, I’m kind of crazy since you niggas talking petty shit

[Verse 1: Nas]
Uh, she havin’ nightmares sleepin’ next to me
Wakin’ up unexpectedly, maybe somebody hexin’ me
Questionin’, blessings on me protect me from weaponry
Hopin’ she gon’ have the same success if she don’t let ’em in
I meant to set the alarm, she dreamt of all the whips
High speed chase, turned the TV on, I saw that shit
Dreamt she saw me bleeding like a True Blood was cornered in
And it’s crazy that I really woke up and bought the whips
Tapped her on her shoulder, don’t believe in
Superstitious thesis, ’cause I’m amongst the demons
Cross on me, first time I got tatted, these cards I was handed
I’m accessin’ the damage like the whole Jackson 5 dancin’
How I slide out, super squeaky, always keep my sneakers clean
Back home, late night, iPhone on DND
Shorty’s sleeping next to me and it’s not even sexually
I think she might be scared, she hope nobody put a hex on me
Black magic undefeated, black magic undefeated
Undefeated, undefeated (‘Feated, ‘feated)
Nasty bitch, bad as fuck, don’t ever try to play with me
And I got that trade in me to give yo’ ass the vacancy
Never got a wedding ring, the life that she engaged to
Chains, cars, nightlife, that’s what she a slave to
Now it’s time to feed her, eat it up like every day
Evil in the atmosphere, let’s hit it with the sage

[Chorus: Lil’ Grimm | Nas | both]
Black magic, voodoo power, cast a spell upon these tricks
Yes, I’m kind of crazy since you niggas talking petty shit
Black magic, voodoo power, cast a spell upon these tricks
(Walking skyscrapers, walking, yeah)
Yes, I’m kind of crazy since you niggas talking petty shit

[Verse 2: Nas]
No good deed goes unpunished
It’s the bummiest, dumbest, life got bad luck in abundance
Look how happy these lames be whenever lies get slung at
The God, why they so angry like they wishin’ they can just run with
Anything when it come 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
Black culture, that’s black magic, it’s way more than fat asses
Who chain bigger? Who car the fastest?
New contracts, I autograph it, new haters, that’s automatic
They ain’t see this comin’, they got hit with the new wave
Evil in the atmosphere, let’s hit it with the sage (Sage)

[Outro]
God in Heaven, please protect the G’s
Protect my ladies out there, and the children
