With a track record of eight multi-platinum albums, nine Grammy Awards (plus a staggering 32 nominations), two Academy Award nominations, two Golden Globe nominations and a SAG nomination, among many other accolades, Blige has cemented herself as a global superstar. And in the ensuing years, the singer/songwriter has attracted an intensely loyal fan base—responsible for propelling worldwide sales of more than 50 million albums. **About Nas** Since his *Illmatic *debut in 1994, hip hop heavyweight Nas has long been considered one of the most influential and talented MCs to ever hold a mic.

Racking up 11 albums in the *Billboard* Top 10, 6 debuting at #1, 13 Grammy® nominations, 8 consecutive platinum and multi-platinum albums, and over 30 millions records sold worldwide, Nas’ catalogue speaks for itself.
