This week, Nas announced a second date at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Saturday 16 November after an incredible demand saw the first sell out in rapid times. The show will celebrate the 30th anniversary of his iconic debut album, Illmatic, with the 18-date UK & Europe tour stopping off in London, Manchester, Edinburgh, and Wolverhampton.

Illmatic is not only one of hip hop’s best albums, but one of the greatest records across any genre. Every bar from Nas is personal, purposeful, and loaded, painting a vivid picture of what it meant to grow up in New York in the 90’s. Every sample-laden beat is distinctive and razor-sharp in its execution, coming from a dream team of production talent in DJ Premier, Large Professor, Q-Tip, Pete Rock and L.E.S.

Tickets for the new date can be purchased here.
