This is looking like it could be a great week for hip-hop! Nas just dropped a new track today from the soundtrack of The Get Down Part 2. The series has been streaming on Netflix, and is now on Part 2, it’s time to catch up! In celebration of the second part of The Get Down, Nas dropped a song that encompasses the era that the series takes place in.
The new track by Nas is called “Angel Dust” and can be found on the soundtrack for the Netflix series. The song brings us back to the time in the ’70s during the drug epidemic in NYC. In the song Nas spits the lyrics, “Angels with dirty faces, angels with broken wings/The devil’s dust, PCP, invaded blood streams/People lining up to get it, Fantastic knew how to flip it/Illegal substances constructing, but plus addicted/Trust it and respect it, almost got me arrested/All of the time I invested in school is now of question/Child prone to violence like a dog returns to its own father.”
