Hello NY! We have some new music from Queens Local NAS. Recently Nas and Damian Marley got together and collaborated on a new album called Distant Relatives. The record hits store May 18th. It is looking to be an impressive and powerful duo set. the albums has been in the works for awhile. In fact last september, a hip hop news reporter leaked a track listing that was the following:

01 Intro (Something New) (prod. Damian Marley)
02 As We Enter (prod. Damian Marley)
03 Revolutionary (prod. Damian Marley)
04 Count Your Blessings (prod. Damian & Stephen Marley)
