Nas + DJ Premier

Light-Years Nas + DJ Premier

After decades of anticipation, Light-Years is a 30-year working legacy reborn.

Nas and DJ Premier’s partnership is embedded in the DNA of Hip-Hop. Their origin story began in 1994 with Illmatic, which resulted in hits such as “N.Y. State Of Mind,” “Memory Lane” and “Represent.” Illmatic helped establish Nas as a generational talent and furthered Premier’s then burgeoning legacy. Their chemistry deepened over the next decade through classics like “I Gave You Power,” 2nd Childhood,” “Nas Is Like” and “N.Y. State Of Mind Pt. II.”

Light-Years is a true testament to both artists' influence, legacy and the timelessness of the music they create together.
