Nas

"You can see the story unfold as his raspy baritone tumbles from the speakers. But unlike his recent recordings, the music matches his narrative urgency." - bbc.co.uk/music

"It might not be an album of the year contender, or Nas's best work, but it's a highly enjoyable, and intelligent, listen." - theversed.com

"Producers No I.D. and Salaam Remi give this very personal record an aura of nostalgia, a throwback to the golden age of hip-hop." - huffingtonpost.com
