Audio. Where Are They Now?
Audio. Where Are They Now: Nas certainly knows how to stay in the spotlight. He's recently unleashed three (as of this writing) remixes of the song "Where Are They Now" from his most recent album, Hip Hop Is Dead. The album version of the song contains Nas reading off a laundry list of MCs from the past who have faded into near obscurity. On these new remixes of the song, Nas brings back many of these names to drop a quick verse to let the world know they are still alive and still representing hip-hop in 2007.
The 90's Remix brings back the likes of Redhead Kingpin, the original Spinderella from Salt-N-Pepa, Rob Base, Father MC, Monie Love, Mike G from the Jungle Brothers, EST from Three Times Dope, Positive K, Das Efx, Chip Fu from the Fu-Schnickens, Lords of the Underground, and Dres from Black Sheep. The 80's Remix features MC Shan, Raheem from the Furious Five, Doctor Ice and Kangol Kid from UTFO, Kool Moe Dee, Sha Rock from the Funky Four + 1, Tito from the Fearless Four, Grandmaster Caz, Linque (aka Isis from X-Clan), Dana Dane, Pebblee Poo, and Just-Ice. The West Coast Remix features Breeze, Kam, King Tee, Candyman, Threat, Ice-T, Sir Mix-A-Lot and the Conscious Daughters.
