On July 25, GRAMMY® Award–winning rapper Nas is teaming up with the GRAMMY Award–winning Philadelphia Orchestra at the TD Pavilion at the Mann.

Timeless poet and rhyme-master Nas delivered his first full-length album, Illmatic, in 1994. He went on to release 14 subsequent albums, eight of which are multi-platinum and platinum including Nastradamus, Stillmatic, God’s Son, and Street’s Disciple. With 16 GRAMMY nominations, Nas released King’s Disease in 2020, giving him his first ever GRAMMY win for “Best Rap Album,” and released King’s Disease II, a sequel to the GRAMMY Award–winning album, produced by Nas and Hit-Boy. 


Tickets will be available Friday, March 21, at 10 AM via Ticketmaster or the Mann Ticket Office. 

Most recently, Nas released the third installment of the King’s Disease series. With no features, King’s Disease III was produced by Hit-Boy and executive produced by Nas and Hit-Boy. Most recently, they released Magic 3, featuring 15 brand new tracks, also marking the final chapter of the legendary run for the prolific rapper-producer duo. Magic 3 serves as the duo's sixth album together in the last three years and serves as the third installment to the Magic series.

Legendary hip hop mogul, co-founder of Mass Appeal Records, actor, and executive producer, Nas has an extensive catalog that speaks for itself.
