Nas to perform intimate MySpace Music release show at The Roxy, LA

MySpace Music is proud to announce that Nas will be performing a free show for his MySpace friends in West Hollywood on July 18th, 2008 at 10:30 p.m. at the Roxy on Sunset - a show being powered by Saints Row 2.

Celebrating his highly-controversial untitled album, Nas will give fans a taste of what's in store for this next phase of his celebrated career.

Early wristband pick-up for the free, all ages performance will begin at 12 p.m. on July 18, 2008 on a first come, first served basis.

Hailing from the storied Queensbridge projects of New York City, a housing community that spawned notable hip-hop luminaries such Marley Marl and MC Shan, among many others, the self-proclaimed "King of New York," Nas, has left an impression on the hip-hop world that is nothing short of legendary.

Poetic street-imagery displayed on his debut album 'Illmatic' in 1994 instantly made him the worthy heir to Rakim's throne, and since that time Nas has continued to draw attention to himself both for his impeccable storytelling talent and controversial moves in the media.

Now with his new untitled album released July 15 on Def Jam Records, Nas is poised to add another notch to his already rock-solid catalog with an album full of politically-focused wordplay and stunning production.
