Looking at the whole picture, he's worn the hat of DJ, mixer, arranger, producer, record label magnate and you know...what can I say? The man has really stepped up his game to another level.

07.01.08The FADER Magazine World Premieres Nas, “Queens Get The Money” | Oh My God.This is groundbreaking, earth-shattering, and like whoa. New exclusive Nas. "Queens Get the Money," the opening track to his much-discussed and untitled album, finds Nas in a Kid A mindspace. Rapping over a drumless beat from Jay Electronica he talks about bringing back Arsenio for hip-hop's sake, dubs himself Nasty Nasdaq and shouts out kids in group homes. Will this be the album where Nas creates a new national anthem? Nas - Queens Get The Money The FADER - World Premiere: Nas, "Queens Get The Money"
