Hur många har koll på Nas-låten “Life Is Like a Dice Game”? Spåret, som egentligen var mer av en freestyle, var en av flera låtar som Nas släppte 19993 – innan “Illmatic”. Nu får vi en ny, officiell tappning när rapparen tillsammans med Spotify, Hit-Boy, Cordae och Freddie Gibbs skapat en uppdaterad version.
“Spotify pulled out a leak from the 90s that I did eons ago, and asked if I could resurrect it. I can’t remember where I recorded it, or who produced it – maybe Easy Moe Bee, he was killin’ the game at the time! Carl Chery from Spotify suggested we connect with Freddie & Cordae to bring the song new life and I loved it”, säger Nas enligt HipHop-N-More.
Efter en idé av Spotufys Carl Chery har Hit-Boy ansvarat för att producera upp låten, medan vi får nya verser av Nas, Cordae och Freddie Gibbs. Låten kommer dagen innan rapparens andra album, “It Was Written”, firar 25-årsjubileum.
