Nas Illmatic 30th anniversary tour for Dublin

The New York rapper is coming to the Olympia after his weekend set at Electric Picnic.

Nas 1994 debut album Illmatic has remained one of the best albums in rap, continually influencing new generations with its complex lyrical tableaus borne from the Queensbridge housing projects, and productions from DJ Premier, Large Professor, Pete Rock and more that have become hip-hop cornerstones. It features classic tracks including ‘N.Y State of Mind’, ‘Halftime, ‘The World Is Yours’ and ‘It Ain’t Hard to Tell’.

Nas brings the album to play in full at 3Olympia Theatre, Dublin on 13th November 2024.

Tickets on sale Friday August 23rd at 10am from Ticketmaster.ie.
