Nas Celebrates 25 Years of Illmatic 

AZ gonna have that same voice when he 70

Nas is bent. Love this. Seeing Nas & A together is always refreshing.

You know an album is a classic when it's consistently celebrated

AZ's loyalty for Nas is Golden, he's been by Nas side from day one, even thru all the Jay-Z beefs and bullshit, he even played in the movie "Belly" with him, and still here supporting and rocking with Nas, that's a true definition of real friend

I know Nas is a humble brother but the industry as a whole hip-hop R&B need to really celebrate this brother man he put in work not only for the hood but for the nation he needs to be recognized by his peers who's sitting there still hating because God bless this young brother to be a messenger y'all need to stand up for Nasir the prophet is in our midst

Nas & AZ still looking 25. Two of the greatest ever

AZ the illest most underrated artist in music in my opinion. Nas Az are so ILL together nice to see them unite again. HipHop needs them especially right now. They’re still the flyest

Nas stay lit!!! Super humble... respect to AZ.... rip Nipsey 🏁🙏🏽 rip Prodigy 🕊

NAS is a Don. Salute to that brother

90s NY hiphop was untouchable

This dude is a perfect representative of iconic, manhood, and gangsta.

Nas a dam vampire or something man, dude still look the same age he was when he dropped illmatic

Nas and Az still need to make a collab album

Nas the greatest. R.I.P illwill an prodigy

nas and az that right there made my day two of the best to do it

See how Nas brushed my man shoulder off? #respect

He truly made one of the greatest albums in the history of music. Salute to Nas. Illmatic25 AZ is a humble dude. He's one of greatest lyricist of all time. Wish both of them would've made more full length albums together. NAS & AZ. 🐏 🐏

Nas !! WE need Nas & AZ Album with Dj Premier

Esco sounds bent but to celebrate this iconic album 25 years later I don't blame him

Nas you are a legend. And a hero for alot of people. And the best lyricists in the game. People will never understand stand how great you are. Most hip hop legends fall off. But not you you still remain relevant and that's special.

Damn, would've been hella nice to hear Nipsey& Nas collabo

I always get stupid excited whenever I see Nas and AZ together. Outside the tracks, the intros they made together on Illmatic and IWW were legendary

Nas drunk af but he deserves it. Toast to 25 more years!

Time is illmatic, keep static like wool fabric Pack a 4-matic to crack your whole cabbage.

Greatest nas🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿 rip nippy Hussle🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Rip Prodigy M.O.B.B 4 Life

nas is faded as always 😂😂😂

How bout RIP Prodigy?? Way more influential to Nas and a much closer friend to him and collaborator. RIP Phife Dawg!! RIP GURU!! True NY legends and peers of Nas'

Nas brushing the debris off another’s man shoulder, while being celebrated and praised for his presence and iconic art of work, sums up him and his humble supremacy, in one gesture ✨🐐💪🏾🖤💪🏾🐐✨.

Nas sauced out his mind... CTFU iss a beautiful thing

Damn I was 19 years old when Illmatic dropped? Time flies

I'm 29 from H-town I've been listening to illmatic all day Still in 2019 ....

Nas alway stay humble, got nothing but mad respect for bro

NAS A REAL N.Y KING!!😎😎😎👌👌💪💪💪🤑

Nas appears to be under the influence, he still held it down and made sense of what he was talking about.

"We gon get it together as a people one day." ✌🏼

Comment section full of love and respect for Nas and AZ 💪🏾💪🏾 i agree wit y’all it’s always dope seein nas lit an jus enjoying life ! Peace and respect to the GOAT!

Nas looks good an healthy I swear that man never age handsome is ever!#AGELESS

We love u forever Nas!! The Legend! The GOAT THE DON!!

You can sure tell that Nas’s late beloved mothers taught him well. The way he admonishes and caters to others. He’s quite the gent.

Love NAS One of the BEST EVER 2 TOUCH THE MIC... AZ IS SECOND 2 NONE, LOVE THEM BOTH

I’ll never forget the summery spring day when I got the Illmatic tape...all I can say is...5 mics wasn’t enough...thank u Nas and all the influences such as Olu, Mary, Carmen, Destiny, Jungle, Shan, Shante, and all the love and input from his hood and his producers who helped create an urban Big Bang called illmatic...the illnesses of the world, condensed into the neighborhood shown in the background and then the eyes of a determined child that captured it all and gave it to Us...one love Blackpeople ... and all the human families of the planet Earth... We love You Nasir the Seer.

*His wonderful humility to the point of still being mic-shy during interviews, despite the fact that he's top 3 greatest to EVER do it makes me love this man even more. Lord Jesus continue to bless Nasir Jones.*

Nas ..The God Son....Big Ups💯

AZ and Nas album is one of the greatest wishes that we never got

He said rip nipsey hustle off the gate. Much respect nas.

I love to see my guys looking good and healthy 25 years later. Nas and AZ look good, straight like that... And those frames!!!

AZ the visualizer as wise as Elijah, here to advise ya, and bring out the realness thats up inside ya!!

25 years of bottle popping too...my man

Nas is so smooth and my favorite MC and Still Looks Young!!! He definitely did his thing & continues to, do so!!! LEGEND for Sure! Props to Nas, for his endless contribution's to the "HIP HOP INDUSTRY" and The Original 5-Mic 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤 Review Of Illmatic, Written By... The Source Magazine! Blessings His Way Alwayz🙏🙏🙏💯💯💯 Classic and Timeless, "ILLMATIC XXV VERY DOPE ALBUM COVER"

He so humble and genuine till this day!!! Mad respect for him the 🐐 ✊🏽

Name a public event where Nas isn't stoned and/or drunk lol. That's my GOAT, but still lol.

Never met them in person but remember growing up getting my waves a jewelry together and timberlands cuz of those cats .

More of a Jay-Z fan but, I got at least 20 Nas favourite songs. Definitely a legend in my books! Respect and congrats on 25 years of a pure classic album.

When az commended nas while nas was standing right there was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and you can tell nas felt how real the whole speech came out because he immediately put his arm over az right in the middle of the speech and simply just looked at him with tremendous love...THAT was a REAL moment

Nas is Good Vibes 💫

Nas "The GOAT"... period. That man inspired my whole life. #QueensbridgeMusicRaisedMe

Love seeing my favorite 2 rappers Nas and AZ together. I wish they would do a collab album.

Nas & AZ aged well - “Do your body right and it loves you back You only get one life, and yo, because of that..”

Nas true king

It should be illegal to be that damn fine😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

NAS is 👑 AZ is 👑 both top 3 lyrically. Need that NAS n AZ albums “The essence”

Nas feeling groovy congratulations bro , #classic#godmc

The G-O-D Nas!

NAS the truth so is AZ, 25 years later and them dudes still look young black don't crack.

Word up, this is my #1 album I don't skip any tracks. He's feelin' rite, I can dig it.

Illmatic is one of my favorite albums; I play it at least once a week, particularly when I'm at the gym. That being said, keep pushing forward. I'm all good with the reminiscent. Can we please get a Nas and AZ collaboration album produce by Large Pro? I keep seeing Nas and A together, yet no new music. Hip Hop is lacking certified classics these days and a collab between these two would wake niggas up.

I want to hear a nas ,az, Jadakiss, styles p song going back to back bar for bar

Genuine interviewer and what Nas said at the end about how everyone wants to give back but it takes time to learn how was beautiful.

The greatest

No one tells a story like NAS does!!!In my opinion he is the greatest to ever pick up a mic!!Truly the real King Of New York and the best Lyrically to ever do it!

Nas and AZ! My two favorite lyricists.

Nas. Most definitely one of the best still alive!! "A living legend a Real Lyricist" Can't Be Touched!! In a Class By His Self . 1 Of Tha. GOAT's

Nas is G.O.A.T. HANDS DOWN! Honorable Respect to AZ...

Illmatic is a masterpiece. One of my favorite hip hop albums and I have a lot of them.

Nasir Jones and Anthony Cruz brotherly love 🔥 💙 legendary

Nas!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Beautiful being. Always doing his own thing. 💪🏾💛

Only Jay stans would dislike this smh Nas=🐐

I love this. You can hear how happy nas was to have az there. He's a real one.

A.Z. is being humble and showing appreciation to Nas, but as great as Nas is lyrically, A.Z. is word for word, pound for pound the G.O.A.T. A.Z. gets the best of Nas on every collabo.

I would love to see nas and az to do an album togeather. That would be PURE hiphop.

damn I wish the firm didn’t break up AZ first 4 albums dope Foxy first 3 albums dope Nature first album dope Cormega first 2 albums dope

Illmatic the greatest albaum of all time respect king nas from morocco😉😍
