His collaboration project with Damian “Junior Gong” Marley as described by Nas himself is neither Reggae nor Hip-Hop, but perhaps World Music… Highlanda Sound has previewed a few cuts off the album on their DaFlavaRadio.com Dancehall Now radio show with tumultuous response from listeners. Could this be the album to really change the game? One thing is for sure – Everyone will certainly be at least curious enough to have an opinion. Here’s a very recent feature courtesy of hiphopnews24-7.com that’s worth checking out.
