"Wave Gods" by Nas, ASAP and Premier immediately transports you back to the 90s in the height of the boombap era, albeit with a modern twist.

One of the elements that elevates the track from the feeling of antiquity is the presence of ASAP Rocky. He not only blends in so well with Nas on a DJ Premier beat, but he does so in a manner which sounds SO authentic to him. The swagger and attitude of Nas also exudes an air of raw elegance, an aura that is flagrant throughout his latest album Magic.
