Nas: Time Is Illmatic focuses on the making of Illmatic, Nas’ 1994 acclaimed debut album.

The film features Nas “returning to his childhood home in Queensbridge, Nas shares stories of his upbringing, his influences — from the music of his jazz musician father Olu Dara to the burgeoning Hip Hop scene in New York City — and the obstacles he faced before his major label signing at age 19,” according to a press release. “Featuring interviews with his Illmatic producers (Large Professor, Pete Rock, Q-Tip, L.E.S., and DJ Premier) and musical peers (including Pharrell Williams and Alicia Keys), Nas: Time Is Illmatic is a thrilling account of Nas’ evolution from a young street poet to a visionary MC.”
