Krylon Mystics- An Homage to Ghetto Hieroglyphics
This morning we woke up to a brand-new track from the legendary Nas and DJ Premier — and it’s already clear that “Writers” is a heartfelt tribute to the artists who helped shape hip-hop culture from the ground up. Nas pays homage to the graffiti pioneers and cultural architects who laid the foundation long before the genre saw mainstream acceptance. In his hands, writers and lyricists become two sides of the same coin, united by the urge to leave a lasting mark on the world.
