Angie Martinez’s in-studio interview with Nas was but a legendary New York Moment.
A laid-back Nasty Nas discussed his new film, Time Is Illmatic, debuting nationally on Oct. 2. Fatherhood, upcoming music and current love life (or lack thereof) were also among topics the rapper freely touchedĀ on.
A great conversation to tune into, especially for any fan of Nasir Jones. Hit the flip to see our favorite moments.

It’s Still Hood
Don’t let MoMA fool ya, Nas took his film Time Is Illmatic back to his native Queens before screening it at the fancy Museum of Modern Art.

The OG and longtime friend made it to the MoMA premiere. Afterall, he’s the star of the Illmatic story.
No Love Lost
A fan wanted to hear Nas’ Jay Z beef record, “Ether.” Angie declined due to Nas feeling it was too old of chapter in his past, despite its timelessness.
New Music

Nas will gift our ears with some new music. Like really, really soon.
Steve Stoute
Is still laughing all the way to the bank, ’cause even Nasty Nas found himself talking hefty donations (like the one given to Angie) from the business mogul.
Old ’80s Kinda Guy
Part of the reason we all love Nas is because he’s just so around the way and down to earth āā relatable. But that doesn’t keep Nas from liking the finer things in life. His current choice luxury whip? Rolls-Royce.

Nas is going to gift his Rolls-Royce to his 20-year-old daughter. For “collector’s item” sake.
Peace & Love
Nas is all about his equilibrium at 41. He has no qualms with his baby mamas and prides himself on being a great ally to the both of them.
Love & Marriage
Despite failed relationships and marriage, Nas still aspires to do it all over again with the right oneā¦ one day.
