I've never been one to chill on too many "trip-hop" blends, especially when they involve a track like Nas' single "The Don" from his upcoming album Life Is Good, but mixsters Massive Attack decided to tackle the endeavor, and churned out a solid piece of ethereal sounds that do the record justice while taking it into a more astral atmosphere.

The remix extends the song by about a minute, and is loaded down with muffled thump drums and synth signatures, which, you know, aren't typical to Nas' music, but still give his style plenty of breathing room.

The song runs away in the later half, but for the good, and while it sounds like a completely different song at the close save for the sample, you can't help but dig on it.
Here's the track, give it a listen, throw up your thoughts. Nas' Life Is Good drops on July 17.
