The film features Nas "returning to his childhood home in Queensbridge, Nas shares stories of his upbringing, his influences — from the music of his jazz musician father Olu Dara to the burgeoning Hip Hop scene in New York City — and the obstacles he faced before his major label signing at age 19,” according to a press release. "Featuring interviews with his Illmatic producers (Large Professor, Pete Rock, Q-Tip, L.E.S., and DJ Premier) and musical peers (including Pharrell Williams and Alicia Keys), Nas: Time Is Illmatic is a thrilling account of Nas' evolution from a young street poet to a visionary MC."
