Is this 2 latino looking dudes that mixup rock with spaced out beats. They played at The Haward Gallery earlier this year with Flying Lotus? If so, sorry but they were shit.

Been back on the Nas big time recently after catching him on Colbert doing Sly Fox. Nice tune.
NY State Of Mind and Doo Rags are two of my favourite tunes ever.
