Illmatic

After nearly three decades in the making, Nas resurrects an old solo gem from the vaults and remasters it with Freddie Gibbs and Cordae for Spotify’s Single series.

Produced by Hit-Boy, Esco recites the nostalgic raps, which he first recorded during his Illmatic sessions in 1993. Cordae incorporates Nasir’s classics with his reflectful opener, while Freddie Kane recalls the gambles of the dope game.
