Nas Remixes "Let Nas Down"

posted in: Music News

To have your idol praise a song you wrote about said idol is an accomplishment in itself, but J. Cole has taken it a step further this morning be recruiting the person he admires to appear on a track about letting that person down. It’s an interesting twist and a perfect way to start the new week.

“Let Nas Down” is one of the most discussed tracks off J. Cole’s new album Born Sinner. The track deals with the release of Cole’s debut album and rumors he heard through the grapevine that his childhood idol was no a fan of his radio-friendly single. That moment has haunted Cole, and on the track he describes his remorse for releasing the song. On the new remix, Nas replies and let’s Cole know he’s more proud of him now than ever before. It’s as close to a lyrical passing of the torch as we may ever see, so click below and enjoy the remix as soon as possible.
