Nas and Damian Marley discuss their upcoming album Distant Relatives at National Geographic in Washington, DC, on Saturday December 12th at 7pm. Although the event is sold out, you can stream it live at www.natgeomusic.net.
Nas and Marley felt that their album alone was not a large enough forum to explore the many connections between hip-hop and reggae which extend far beyond their often overlapping listening audiences. They’ve put together a documentary and a discussion panel moderated by MTV’s Sway, which includes Kool Herc, Rakim, Daddy U-Roy, King Jammy, Jeff Chang, Pat McKay, Waterflow and DJ Red Alert. You can be sure the story will be told!
