Last month, fans were disappointed to learn that Nas’s anticipated collaboration with Frank Ocean titled “No Such Thing As White Jesus” had been lost due to a technical error. Now, in a recent interview with the Femme Fatale Mixshow, the track’s producer Hit-Boy explained the song’s fate.
Hit-Boy explained that he actually lost an entire hard drive’s worth of recording sessions while travelling, including the session of Ocean and Nas’s song. He added that he’s been talking with Frank about re-recording the song, but both of their schedules are too busy at the moment to get to it anytime soon.
“I had a bunch of [recordings of] sessions on [a hard drive], and in the mix somehow, in traveling, I lost the drive,” he said. “It’s not only that song [that I lost]; it’s a bunch of other songs I could be done with right now, and I’m kinda pissed about it, but it is what it is. You live and you learn. Now, I’m backing up everything three times over…I’m not sure [if we’ll re-record it]; I had talked to Frank about it and he was gonna try to re-cut it, but he was doing so much for his album that he didn’t have the time. It just didn’t come together.”
Check out the full interview below.

Cue 12 year olds who are confused about their sexuality, deflecting…

Two faggots, Nas will make up for it behind the scences.
I have to eBay this ish, buying a HDD full of unreleased Frank Ocean songs would be nice.
Hopefully that Nas X Frank Ocean “No such thing as a white Jesus” can be seen into the light it’s ironic that I say that though most of ya’ll won’t get it.

IRRESPONSIBLE KID…KANYE SHOULD DROP U FOR THAT.
The song disappeared because Frank Ocean is gay. Everything happens because Frank Ocean is gay.
So if Frank Ocean fucks your sister is because he’s gay???
^ LOL boi you a fool
He’s bisexual. Meaning, he’s still fucking 20x more bitches than you ever will.
What makes you say he’s bisexual?
HIV is alive and kicking.

This is unacceptable these days. Jesus saves but damnit Buddha makes back-ups. Damn son invest in a flash drive or online storage. Obviously those sessions weren’t important if you easily let it go.

who cares
I knew Nas was gay on the DL.
sound logic
u gotta have back up hard drives at that level cmon now this isn’t amateur hour at the ramada inn
Ya kind of suspect. As a producer in our modern music era, it’s like 2nd nature to make multiple backups for situations like this. You ain’t ever heard of cloud storage homie?
