NASIR - THE FILM

Nas may be focused on making a brand new LP with Swizz Beatz and RZA, but that's not stopping him from keeping his self-titled 11th studio album alive. Today (Nov. 15), he dropped a short film via Mass Appeal to accompany his Nasir album, which was executively produced by Kanye West.

The 16-minute film amplifies the deep stories and social issues his latest album touches on, including things like racism and police brutality. Both are social constructions Nas would argue affect the world to this day.
