Beastie Boys + Nas...Nice!



The Beastie Boys haven't traded rhymes on a record with a prominent non-Beastie rapper since Q-Tip showed up on the 1994 classic "Get It Together." But the Beasties ended that streak at this past weekend's Bonnaroo Festival, bringing Nas to the stage to debut an untitled new song.

Rolling Stone says the new track will appear on the Beasties' forthcoming LP Hot Sauce Committee,, but that hasn't been confirmed.

Nah Right has some shaky camera-phone footage of Nas' big cameo, though the quality of the footage doesn't really make it clear what, exactly, the song sounds like.

Hot Sauce Committee is tentatively due in September. Santigold has also contributed some vocals. The Beastie Boys debuted a couple of new songs on a surprise bonus 7" in some packages of their Check Your Head reissue.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the songs like, but I love both Nas and the Beasties, so it's sure to be amazing!
