Nas & DJ Premier - "Define My Name"


This year Nas' Illmatic turns thirty years old. The legendary album included three songs produced by DJ Premier ("N.Y. State of Mind," "Represent," and "Memory Lane"), so to help celebrate the two have collaborated on a new track. "Define My Name" isn't exactly a throwback to 1994. Instead, it's a natural progression from the duo's work on Illmatic. If you loved Nas' landmark album, you're going to be into "Define My Name." It's great to see two legends work together again, especially when the results are as great as they are here. Neither has lost a single step, and we can't wait to hear more.

You can listen to "Define My Name" below. The song is out now via Mass Appeal, with a collaborative album due out later this year. For more on DJ Premier, check out the artist on Instagram. Nas can be found on Instagram here.
