Nas Takes Over MSG For One Night Only Concert

On February 24, Nas took the stage at Madison Square Garden (MSG) for his highly-anticipated One Night Only: King’s Disease Trilogy concert. This was the first time the Queensbridge native played The Garden. The concert included songs from all three of his King’s Disease albums, along with some of his biggest hits from over the years.

The first half of the performance kicked off with Nas performing tracks from King’s Disease I, II and III, including “Blue Benz” and “27 Summers,” both of which were met with a thunderous applause from the crowd. Other songs he performed from the trilogy albums included “I’m on Fire,” “Spicy” and “Reminisce.”

After delivering an energetic first half of the concert, Nas took a brief intermission before returning to the stage for the second half of the show. This time around, he performed some of his most iconic hits, including “If I Ruled the World,” “Hate Me Now,” and “NY State of Mind.”

Nas’s first Madison Square Garden show was truly a star-studded affair, thanks to his impressive lineup of special guests. Hit boy, the celebrated producer and rapper, joined Nas on stage for “Michael & Quincy.” The legendary Mary J. Blige also made an appearance, bringing her soulful voice and electrifying presence to the stage for “You Remind Me.” Meanwhile, AZ, one of Nas’s longtime collaborators, wowed the audience with his impeccable flow on “Life’s a Bitch.” And last but not least, Slick Rick, the iconic rapper and storyteller, joined Nas for a performance of “Hey Young World.” Together, these special guests helped make the show an unforgettable experience that will be remembered for years to come.
