State of Mind\" (from Nas' classic debut album \"Illmatic\") is done by Chris Martin, known as DJ Premier, and samples two jazz tracks: “Mind Rain” by Joe Chambers and “Flight Time” by Donald Byrd, as well as vocal samples from Eric B. & Rakim’s track “Mahogany” for the song’s hook. \n--\nNas said, [“N.Y. State of Mind”] is one of my favorites, because that one painted a picture of the City like nobody else. I’m about eighteen when I’m saying that rhyme. I worked on that first album all my life, up until I was twenty, when it came out. I was a very young cat talking about it like a Vietnam veteran, talking like I’ve been through it all. That’s just how I felt around that time.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
