Nas released his seventh studio album, the critically acclaimed double-disc Street’s Disciple, on November 30, 2004. The album’s first singles were “Thief’s Theme” and “Bridging the Gap”, which features his father Olu Dara on vocals. The album also includes “These Are Our Heroes”, which accuses prominent sports stars and actors such as Kobe Bryant and O. J. Simpson of not setting good examples for the children who look up to them and neglecting their heritage and background. The videos for “Bridging the Gap” and “Just A Moment” received moderate airplay on MTV and BET. Although the album went platinum, its commercial profile was relatively low compared to the rapper’s previous releases.
Nas was featured on Kanye West’s album Late Registration on a song titled “We Major”. West said the song was Jay-Z’s favorite on the album, but West was unable to get Jay-Z to record a vocal for the final mix of the song. He also appeared on Damian Marley’s song “Road to Zion” and several other songs such as “Death Anniversary” and “It Wasn’t You” (featuring Lauryn Hill).
