Hip hop legends Wu-Tang Clan and Nas have joined forces for joint ‘The NY State Of Mind’ tour.
The tour will touch down in 25 cities across North America from August 30 to October 4.
With the Queens rapper Nas and the legendary Long Island collective Wu-Tang Clan coming together, it’s only right the New York rappers name the tour after Nas’ “NY State of Mind,” a track from his classic album ‘Illmatic,’ reports Revolt.
As reported by Pitchfork, Nas released his latest album, ‘Magic,’ with Hit Boy last year. Wu-Tang’s classic debut, ‘Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)’, was recently archived in the Library of Congress.
