Nas with the Oregon Symphony
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Since the release of his astounding 1994 debut rap album Illmatic brought him to the forefront of the East Coast hip hop scene, Nas has been recognized as one of the greatest rappers/MCs of all time. Nas brings his extensive catalog of great rap hits (including those from his 2020 Grammy® winner for Best Rap Album, King's Disease) to The Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, adding the dynamic power and virtuosity of the Oregon Symphony to his hyper-visual storytelling and topical verse.
