Show and ticket information for NAS - 30 Years of Illmatic concert at Civic Hall, Wolverhampton.
The release of Illmatic in 1994 established Nas as a hip hop icon, becoming a landmark album that has been lauded by critics as one of the all-time classic hip hop recordings. American rapper Nas will play the Hall in celebration of the 30th anniversary of his debut album, Illmatic. Illmatic is not only one of hip hop's best albums, but one of the greatest records across any genre. Every bar from Nas is personal, purposeful, and loaded, painting a vivid picture of what it meant to grow up in New York in the 90's. Every sample-laden beat is distinctive and razor-sharp in its execution, coming from a dream team of production talent in DJ Premier, Large Professor, Q-Tip, Pete Rock and L.E.S.
