Nas x Anthony Hamilton perform “World’s An Addiction” live on Conan O’Brien [Video]

Fresh off his Life is Good/Black Rage tour with Lauryn Hill, Nas is continuing to promote his latest album with a number of energetic live performances on late night talk shows.

Last night the Queens veteran paid a visit to Conan O’Brien’s show in LA to perform his Life is Good track “World’s An Addiction“, alongside the highly gifted soul singer Anthony Hamilton. The track is oppressively dark, and perhaps a surprising choice for TV, but as the two tag in and out, backed by a live band who reproduce Remi’s mournful arrangements perfectly, they pull off a mesmerising performance.

Nas will cap his tour by bringing in the New Year with a solo performance at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Watch his latest performance for yourself below:
