When Nas and Damien Marley first announced they were teaming up for a joint album, there were more than a few raised eyebrows. While some heaped praise upon them for the daring move, others questioned aloud how the pairing would work. Fast-forward to today, and those questions have been answered resoundingly. Not only did their album work, but it earned critical praise for its artistic exploration.
With that success in tow, Nas and Marley have decided to test their fate on the road with the announcement of a Distant Relatives international tour, aptly named in honor of their successful collaboration. Check out the performance dates below and let us know if you’ll be in the house so we can feature your global concert review. –djr
