Nas x J. Cole - "Let Nas Down" (Remix)

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Nas has responded to J. Cole's "Let Nas Down" with a masterful remix. If you're somehow late on this one, this is the Born Sinner joint where Cole dissects the instance when he heard through No I.D. that his idol wasn't feeling his radio-friendly sound. Well now everything has come full circle with the Queensbridge hip hop legend dropping a dope response track. He manages to still tell stories and come off as humble as ever while reassuring Cole that he has faith in him. One of his standout lines includes "While you was writing down my rhymes, I was just tryna show you that if you say what's in your mind, you could stand the test of time/Now I'm playing Born Sinner loud." It's always a good day when there's a new Nas verse drops. Stream his "Let Nas Down" remix below.
