Nas Releases Election Song

Rapper Nas has just released a song in honor of yesterday’s historical election. He has been on tour in Norway, and was unable to get to the polls, so he decided to write a track in honor of Barack Obama instead.

Producer DJ Green Lantern tells MTV.com, "I'm currently on tour in Europe with Nas and we were at dinner talking about how crazy it is that we're not in the states on Election Day. Someone quoted his verse from (his song) Black President, when he said 'What's the Black Prez thinkin' on Election Night?' And Nas said, 'Set up the mic - I'm gonna speak on that.' And the result is (the song) Election Night."
