The WAV app previously hosted streams for Kanye West’s ye and Kids See Ghosts listening parties, which were marred by delays. Both events didn’t begin until hours after the originally scheduled start times.
Nas’ album is the fourth in a series of West-produced projects released on a weekly basis. All of the albums feature just seven tracks.
