After working together, the duo decided to record a full album together Recording and production Nas and Marley began recording in 2008; recording sessions took place in Los Angeles, California, and Miami, Florida. Marley and his brother, Stephen, produced the majority of the album, using live instrumentation in the recording process. They collaborated with guest artists, including Stephen Marley, Dennis Brown, Joss Stone, Lil Wayne, and K'naan.

We want this to be something you'd play in your car." Enjoy my show and listen closely to the knowledge in this song. Damian's vereses are ridiculous...and Nas' verse.... Forget about it.
