Columbia Records Ready To Release Definitive 'Greatest Hits' Album From Groundbreaking Hip-Hop Icon Nas - Nas "Greatest Hits" Set To Drop On November 6, 2007
Columbia Records announces the upcoming release of Greatest Hits, the
definitive collection of classic tracks and more from the pioneering
hip-hop icon Nas. Nas' Greatest Hits will be available in stores and
online on Tuesday, November 6, 2007.
A career-spanning retrospective which also serves as an ideal
introduction to Nas' most unforgettable tracks, Greatest Hits reprises
12 essential cuts culled from the artist's monumental Columbia Records
catalog -- from 1994's Illmatic, one of the most influential albums in
hip-hop history, through 2004's double disc masterpiece Street Disciple
-- while premiering 2 newly recorded songs: "Surviving The Times" and
"Less Than An Hour," featuring Cee-Lo, new theme music created for the
soundtrack for "Rush Hour 3."
Since the 1994 release of Illmatic, the blueprint album which laid the
foundation for East Coast hip-hop in the 90s while establishing Nas as
one of hip-hop's most electrifying and influential urban street poets,
Nas continues to be one of hip-hop's most potent, provocative, and
abiding forces with a string of chart-topping RIAA gold and platinum
successes to his credit: Illmatic (1994); It Was Written (1996); "Street
Dreams" (1997); I Am...The Autobiography (1999); Nastradamus (1999);
Stillmatic (2002); The Lost Tapes (2002); God's Son (2002); Street's
Disciple (2004); and Hip Hop Is Dead (2006).
More than 20 million Nas albums, singles, and digital tracks have been
sold worldwide since the release of Illmatic in 1994.
