"Last year we brought Snoop Dogg, and it was epic! This year we continue to bring in legends of American music: Nas is one of the only rappers from back in the day that is still putting out legit and relevant chart topping music, and we can't wait to see what he and Junior Gong have in store!" - Marc Brownstein
