Nas: If I Ruled The World 2009 video + song

In 1996, Nas dropped If I Ruled the World (Imagine That), the Lauryn Hill-featuring This Was Written single that became the now-legendary rapper’s first mainstream hit. The emcee’s joined forces with Smirnoff to kick off the popular vodka brand’s second annual Signature Mix Series with If I Ruled the World 09, a modern day revamp that serves as a lyrical sequel to the original. Floetry alumnus Marsha Ambrosius contributes a soulful bridge as well as tackling the Fugees icon’s hook, while Son’s of Light reinterprets Trackmasters Ent. and Rashad Smith‘s production, serving up a synth-centric beat featuring scratches by turntablist Brian Delaney. Still noddin' our heads to "If I Ruled The World 2009" music video by Nas (a Thumbs Up!) although its been over three months since was given a 'Thumbs Up' here at MusicRemedy (March, 2009). This joint have received some well deserved attention but didnot make it to the top. A pity...
