NAS SHOOTS NEW VIDEO WITH NATALIE COLE

Nas hooks up with Chris Robinson for new video which features a cameo from Natalie Cole.

Nas recently hooked up with video director Chris Robinson, who directed his “One Mic” and “I Can” videos in the past, to shoot a clip for his new single, “Can’t Forget About You” featuring Chrisette Michele. The video was shot in New York City and featured a cameo from Natalie Cole. The singer recorded a version of the song, “Unforgettable,” with her late father Nat King Cole with a little help from today’s technology and “Can’t Forget About You” features a sample from the classic.

Black Eyed Peas front man Will.I.Am shared that he produced both of Nas’ latest singles in the same day. He said,

“I did the a ‘Can’t Forget About You’ and ‘Hip Hop Is Dead’ in the same day. After I did ‘Hip Hop Is Dead’ and I played it for Nas over the telephone and he signed off that he wanted to do that. I then went on stage. We were in Pittsburgh, that’s right. We were in Pittsburgh, not Philly. What Pittsburgh University, yeah we had a show at that arena there and right after stage I did ‘Can’t Forget About You’ and played it for him over the phone. He wanted to flip that as well.”

Nas’ latest album, Hip Hop Is Dead, has sold over 500,000 copies in the three weeks that it has been in stores. The rapper is currently working on a new project which he plans to release this year.
