“I’ve been a huge fan since the original movie came out in 1988. Our brand HSTRY is all about celebrating history, with an emphasis on Black History, African History and Royalty,” Nas said in a statement about the collaboration. “With this collab we aimed to capture that royal essence of Zamunda while representing the street style of Queens NY to the WORLD.”
