Damian Marley and Nas

[Monko760]

Last time, or rather both times I saw a Marley at Coachella there was a PHAT smoke cloud over the outdoor stage. So who is with me?

[WhyTheLongFace]

They killed it at UCLA Reggae Fest

[Subaru2Coachella]

Can't fucking waiiiiiiTttttt!!!! had to skip them at outside lands..... not this time though, not this time ...

[Gribbz]

So, I've seen both of these guys individually, but never together. What kind of set should I expect?

[LyricsForTheMind]

high energy, they worked the crowd a lot at outside lands

[Neighborhood Creep]

They were amazing at Bonnaroo from the second that Conan O'Brian introduced them right until the end. Was my favorite day act of the weekend.

/and yes, plenty of smoke!

APPROVED.

[travelfan]

That set list looks amazing...I like Nas, but can't claim to be a real fan of him. Just know his most well known stuff. But I've been scoping videos of the two of them live together and I just cannot miss this, they bring so much energy. Hate Me Now --> Got Yourself a Gun --> Made You Look --> Welcome to Jamrock...that is gonna make the crowd explode from casual fans to hardcore fans alike. Also, Lauryn Hill for If I Ruled The World? Chances are she won't even make it to her own set, but that'd be sick. I'm gonna research Damian's stuff, this is rapidly becoming one of my most anticipated sets of the weekend.

[unit300021]

Can't fucking waiiiiiiTttttt!!!! had to skip them at outside lands..... not this time though, not this time ...

That's a shame, a top 3 act of the weekend.

Keep in mind the Roo set list will be longer then Coachella's because they got 90min there compared to a 50 they will get at Coachella. So with exception of Welcome to Jamrock and Road to Zion you can expect most solo songs to be eliminated.

[DeepFriedSushi]

Seen them before.
They put on a very good show. When I saw them, there was a lot of solo stuff from each artist. I suspect most of that will be trimmed down.

[wstsidela]

Whoa!! Me like.

[like it was 1989]

this >>> Kanye

[wraidle]

this >>> Kanye

couldn't agree more, thats awesome to see so many illmatic tracks thrown down previously. i think my shit will be completely lost if he dropped halftime

[stellarpoet22]

I saw them at smokeout, they blew my Fucking mind....its a high energy set, they know how to get the crowd going. They truly are a " can't miss" act. It's a very specialvthing to see, Biggest surprise on line up for me ....

[Mugwog]

I'm hoping for more of a damian dominated set. Damians music is upbeat, gets the crowd moving, wasn't much of a fan of their duet album.

[beeerplease]

Holy Shit. THAT SETLIST is fucking amazing.

[thom cobain]

i will not miss this

[zachyd]

They absolutely KILLED at Outside Lands. Definitely one of the highlights. Can't wait to see them again!

This is going to be a major smokeout though for sure haha.

[heart cooks brain]

I would have preferred a Nas solo set

[PJandBompton]

They killed it at UCLA Reggae Fest

fuck yeah they did

[synth-drop]

I would have preferred a Nas solo set

QFT

that being said, their bonnaroo set was great. Conan got things started off by saying "when you think of reggae and NYC rap, you think of Conan O'Brien" and every 3 minutes Nas would direct the crowd to smoke more weed.

i found their solo songs within the set odd... Damian would play a song like "count your blessings" crooning about peace and unity, only to be followed up by Nas dropping "got yourself a gun". the kids on acid were confused.

[Trick Loves The Kids]

They're actually really, really, really good together. I've seen them headlining their own show out here and at a festival and they killed it both times.

Also travelfan I wrote a long-ass response to your PM and it got lost in space :( I'll get back to you soon doggie

[rose925]

OMGd3mAfl-0&ob=av3nm

saw them at outside lands in 2010
they were sick and yes..the weed will be going around

[Mr. Dylanja]

That setlist needs, "New York State of Mind" on it.

[travelfan]

Trick - No biggie, as you can see I've already changed my views on some of it hah.

I kind of agree with some of you that I might have preferred a Nas only set, except he's had some major clunkers recently (Owe You Back is practically unlistenable) and frankly Damian Marley being on the bill will probably force him to edit those out and stick with the hits and the underground classics.

Speaking of hits, there is no way I can miss this:

SKHaPI_JAsk

[runbowsky]

Always been a big Nas fan. I caught them at the Smokeout, they performed exceptionally well together I thought.

[Neighborhood Creep]

When I seen them, Green Lantern was their DJ. Huge bonus.

[Mr. Dylanja]

"If I Ruled the World"

Wiill Nas and Lauryn perform it together? I think it'd be more likely to see it at Lauryn's set rather than Nas & Damian's. Either way, it would be incredible.

[Trick Loves The Kids]

When I seen them, Green Lantern was their DJ. Huge bonus.

He was their DJ both times I saw them as well, in addition to the full band

[rose925]

doubtful

[superkindskunk]

I definitely want to catch their set.

[GuyInTucson]

Anyone pining for a Nas solo set has obviously never seen Nas live. Incredibly boring.

However, I grew up on Nas and love this Distant Relatives album. I keep hearing good things about these guys performing together, so I am expecting good things.

[Mr. Dylanja]

Hopefully it's in a tent so we can bake some clams.

Nas Owes The IRS Millions

http://www.complex.com/music/2011/01/nas-owes-the-irs-millions


who cares

this has nothing to do with his music and talent

[SFChrissy]

So, I've seen both of these guys individually, but never together. What kind of set should I expect?They are rediculously perfect together!!! I've seen them together twice and couldn't get enough!!!

[Monko760]

this >>> Kanye

FUCK YEA! Kanye can produce and he has SOME novel ideas, he still sucks balls. These guys are the real deal.

[McFearless]

I've seen Damien solo and I seen them together at rock the Bells a few years ago. They really do mesh well together. When I seen them I think it wasearly in their collaboration. Nas came out first, did a few songs, then they did a few songs together, then Damien did some solo and Nas came back out to wrap it up. I am one of the few people that doesn't partake in smoking for ehatever that's worth. This is one of my top 5 acts to see coachella weekend.

[jenmorrison]

this. Let's roll a blunt.

[PrettyRagdoll]

LTm8bAf_75g

Don't miss these guys! I'm REALLY fucking hoping K*naan shows up to do this song with them

[D2424j]

saw them at smoke out and it was a great performance..cant wait to see them again

[beeerplease]

I just found out that their tour includes a stop here in Hawaii next week Saturday.

I'm thinking of catching this and then running over to the Flying Lotus show right after (which starts later). A great day for music.

This might solve one possible conflict that might arise Sunday of Coachella. Or if Damian and Nas are so fucking good, I might need Round 2 at Coach.

Bring a good video camera.

[303dubbin]

saw this at rothbury 2 years ago, so good. cant wait to see it again. sunday is so fuckin stacked its ridiculous

[Fidoosh]

I saw them when they headlined "rock the bells" @ jones beach NY. The set was insane I thought. I liked how Nas did his "one love" and they went right into Damien doin great bob's "one love"... Also I loved how they rapped over each other's solo song beats. Like Nas rapped over welcome to jamrock and Damien rapped over "represent"... Was pretty fuckin illl.

[Media Blitz]

Hopefully it's in a tent so we can bake some clams.

Pretty positive this will be on the main stage.

[Maijag]

I know the Coachella set list will be shorter, but if Nas is going to drop "One Mic" ... I gotta be there.

How early in the day do you think they'll go on?

[Drewbles]

Saw these two at Outside Lands this year. They complement each other so well! Nothing but good vibes y'all - don't miss this show!

[Porkchop]

Yeee I am super stoked for this.. hopefully they get a sunset slot and dont conflict with anyone.. doubtful though

YESSS "one mic" is one of my all-time favorite hip-hop songs. It will be a highlight of the festival if he performs it.

[Monko760]

Pretty positive this will be on the main stage.

That or Outdoor Stage. I would like Outdoor better if its at a later time than main stage all early and shit.

[Porkchop]

Ya I'm perfectly happy with that setlist! Only thing I would add is try to slide in New York State of Mind somewhere in there

[chopperdave934]

I didn't know enough about what Marley and Nas have been doing together to think we could be seeing Hate Me Now, One Mic, etc. But what really just sky-rocketed to the top of my wish-list: Lauryn coming out for If I Ruled the World, holy shit. People think there's any chance of that?

[eso808]

going to see nas and damian marley this weekend in hawaii. its gonna be dope!

[beeerplease]

Fuuck. NVM. Missing their show, cause I'll be at Flying Lotus. The shows overlap, and I can't risk the weirdness that is FlyLo. SOOOO, I fucking HOPE there are no conflicts in April. AHHHHH.

[erselone]

Anything ILLMATIC will do......dopest Nas song "One Love"..nuff said!!!!! Hearing "Shootouts" would be dope cuz that beat is sick!!!!!! NAS-"Life's a bitch and then you die....that's why I get high because you never know when you're going go"!!!!!!!

[eso808]

hate to be a downer but last night nas didnt play any songs from illmatic and censors alot of his more hardcore lines. that bonnaroo setlist posted above is basically same as what they played. it was still a sick concert though

[scoliosisjones]

if someone could embed for me it would be greatly appreciated.... nas & damian marley patience....amazing new video

YESSS "one mic" is one of my all-time favorite hip-hop songs. It will be a highlight of the festival if he performs it.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

LMMFAO Guerilla Black?!?!?! Is he still trying to ride the "I sound like Biggie" train?

I like one mic, but why hand-pick three random hip hop songs that are better? There are more than three songs in Nas' catalog alone that are better than that track. GTFO

[Mr. Dylanja]

"New York State of Mind" is his best song. It's a shame it's not on the setlist.

Primo on the beat + Nas at his rawest = hot fiyahhh.

[GuyInTucson]

In the track "Friends" off of Distant Relatives, Nas says this

Who is he talking about here? I can't figure for the life of me who he is going at in this verse. Cormega? It CAN'T POSSIBLY be AZ.

Especially if you're going to pick an outkast song...

[GuyInTucson]

Not only that, but it was an Outkast song from when I was in Jr high (1994-95 era)
