Next week, Nas is gearing up to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his critically acclaimed debut, Illmatic XX. However, prior to the album’s release, the rapper has decided to issue a rare “Laidback Remix” of “It Ain’t Hard to Tell.”
The revamped track was produced by The Creators, and fans can stream the cut now via Okayplayer.com. The two-disc album hits stores on April 15 via Sony Legacy.
Meanwhile, the rapper is scheduled to perform Illmatic in its entirety during his midnight set Saturday at the Coachella festival in Indio, California; the event will be streamed online.
