NEW VIDEO: DJ PREMIER, NAS: “DEFINE MY NAME”
“Define My Name,” a long-awaited collaboration between Nas and DJ Premier, features their reunion.
With a nostalgic sound and scratching by Preemo, Nasty Nas delivers ferocious bars that showcase his skill and endurance as a lyricist.
“I decided at twenty that I should give up by thirty.” Then, at thirty, I felt that rapping was cliche by forty. How could I have been wrong? I never would have guessed that Nas’s new songs would be harsh and live at fifty.
“Define My Name,” which drops on the 30th anniversary of Nas’ iconic 1994 debut, Illmatic, suggests that the two icons may work together on an album in the future. It is Nas’s first new song since Hit-Boy produced Magic 3 last year.
Following the release of his own song, “Can U Dig It?” starring Snoop Dogg and Daz Dillinger, DJ Premier is back.
