Prince reference on the new Nas single Cooperating with his father - jazz legend Olu Dara - Nas alludes to Prince and Purple Rain on his new blues inspired single Bridging the Gap
"Bridging the gap from the blues to Jazz to Rap the history of music on this track born in the game discovered my father's music like Prince searches thru Rock in the 'Purple Rain' but Minneapolis was the bridge home to the "Super Kid" some were well known some doing bids," Thought that was a nice gesture reflecting Prince's status among musicians/rappers. | |

I believe he says "searching through boxes of purple rain"
You know when he was going throught the boxes of his dad's music. Nice post though. Man if these two did a track together! Sickness CookJackson said: Cooperating with his father - jazz legend Olu Dara - Nas alludes to Prince and Purple Rain on his new blues inspired single Bridging the Gap

I remember the first time I heard Nas's song and I got all defensive...I was like "WHAT'D HE JUS SAY 'BOUT PRINCE!!  " LOL how foolish of meDoesn't it make you smile when you realize no one was there to see the stupid thing you just did? | |

Fitting. Nas is very refined when he wants to be. He can flip it and get really intellectual that's why he has always been one of my favorites in the game. | |

Related to this I thought it was funny on friends last night when Ross wanted to go to eat at the hard rock cafe and joey goes "You only want to look at the Purple Rain display" or something like that...it was cute! “The only love there is is the love we make.” 💜 | |

Hasn't this song been out a few months...? 
It is great though. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |
