Nas – The Nas Remixes & Large Pro Blends
I know we here at KTL have given a lot of attention to Obama in the last several weeks, but I have not been fully distracted from my first love – hip-hop. So, with that being said, I’m going to focus more on giving you more hip-hop posts and things to make you 10% smarter in the upcoming posts.
Now, I am not one to post a lot of mixtapes but I do like to post the ones that I think are worth it. Coincidentally, I got 2 for you today. One is a remix mixtape from Nick James that I found at HHIR (What up, Aaron & Ivan!). Its a collection of remixes Nick did that take from Jazz samples to just straight hip-hop breaks. The next is a mixtape I found at TROY that takes beats from Large Professor’s instrumental albums and puts Nas’ acapellas to them. And since we know the 2 are a good combo previously, its cool to see what a whole album would sound like with the Esco/Extra P duo. Tracklistings after the jump. And if you want to hear some new/old rare Nas, go see Dukes @ Full Clip!
