Nas Did "Illmatic" With A Symphony Orchestra

by HHL JT

Nas's classic album Illmatic got a classical music spin

Last night, PBS aired its Great Performances episode featuring Nas at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC back by the National Symphony Orchestra.

 "I worked on my thing. I worked on my craft and I stuck to it," Esco said before the performance. "I hope that you can look through the dream with me and see the journey I took to be on this stage with an orchestra."

Check out the entire show (and album) below.
