Nas Surprises With New Song At Run the Jewels Release Party

(Radio.com) Fans at the New York City record release party for Run the Jewels' new album RTJ2 got a surprise when Nas came out as a special guest. As if that moment weren't enough, he took to the stage to debut a brand new track, "The Season."

"I wanted to share a new record here at you guy's launch thing, because this is the type of field that I'm in," Nas said, by way of introducing the track. "What [Run the Jewels] are doing, I like to say I'm doing that type of thing."

It was a mere snippet of the song, but already it's obvious the song uses a fairly soulful sample. "Ayo, it's love for Detroit, Motown," he raps over blaring horns.

"Season" was produced by J. Dilla. Nas's previous 2012 album, Life is Good, was released on Def Jam. No title or release date for a new Nas album has been announced, but many read this as an indication that it could come at any time.
