Finally got around to Nasty Nas’ new clip (now via the official upload on Vevo), which brings it back to the beginning in more ways than one with a mid 90’s sounding beat from Salaam Remi and a walk through Queensbridge.
Nas’ final Def Jam release, Life is Good, is due in 2012.

For whatever reason, there are two different versions of Estelle’s “Fall in Love” from her new album, All of Me, that feature John Legend and Nas separately.

Rock the Bells returns with another stellar line-up – unless you don’t like Nas, The Roots, Common, Talib Kweli, Big Boi, Damien Marley, Mickey Factz (I see you down there), RZA, GZA, Raekwon, etc. Ask The Fader for free tix.
