Widely regarded as one of the all-time great rappers—MTV ranked him as the fifth greatest MC of all time—Brooklyn-born, Queens-bred Nas has released an impressive string of consecutive platinum and multi-platinum albums since his debut ‘Illmatic’ in 1994. And despite being embroiled in myriad controversies and feuds over the years, his hip-hop artistry just keeps evolving. Nas’s 10th studio album, ‘Life Is Good,’ was released this year and reached number one in the U.S. as well as hitting the top 10 in the U.K., Canada, and Switzerland.
