De La Soul is officially gearing up for their next chapter, and they just set the tone in a major way. The legendary trio premiered their brand-new song “RUN IT BACK” featuring Nas during an appearance on Fat Joe and Jadakiss’ podcast, giving fans the first taste of their upcoming album Cabin in the Sky.
The moment instantly lit up the Hip-Hop world—not just because new De La Soul music is always an event, but because Nas delivers one of his most charged verses in recent memory. The Queensbridge icon enters with his trademark “Bravehearts!” chant made famous on “Made You Look,” immediately signaling that he’s in rare form.
Nas’ verse is sharp, confident, and lyrically surgical, as he addresses Hip-Hop’s current positioning on the Billboard charts and the ongoing conversation about the genre’s commercial power. Despite being decades into his career, he sounds as hungry and present as ever, weaving social commentary and competitive fire into every bar.
For De La Soul, “RUN IT BACK” reflects their ability to innovate while staying true to the essence of their craft. Premiering the track on Joe and Jada’s platform underscores their connection to the culture and their commitment to authentic spaces.
With Cabin in the Sky on the way, this powerful collaboration suggests the group is ready to deliver one of their most compelling projects yet—and Nas’ explosive feature only fuels the anticipation.
