Nas & Amy Winehouse: Makin' You Look Since 2002
A few days ago, pictures of Nas and Amy Winehouse surfaced and the two were obviously very friendly (and intoxicated). Nas was even seemingly protective of the oft-troubled singer as he appears to be shooing away some paparazzi intent at capturing some flicks of Amy. Most people were baffled at the spotting, wondering what exactly the pair (who were attending Damian Marley's birthday party in London) was doing together. Moreover, she appeared to be obliterated on stage the previous night as she attended Nas and Damian Marley's concert at the Hammersmith Apollo. Besides the obvious drunk jokes, there are real links between the two artists that date back to as early as 2002. There is likely no romantic relationship between the two but this is just a look back at their connection. Winehouse has also said that Nas is one of her biggest musical influences.In 2002, while Nas was working on his 6th studio album, God's Son, Amy Winehouse was in the studio recording her debut LP, Frank. People may not know this but both Nas' "Made You Look" and Winehouse's "In My Bed" were produced by Salaam Remi using the same instrumentation (which contained samples from Incredible Bongo Band's "Apache). Furthermore, Remi is credited as a writer on both projects.
When her 2005 breakout album, Back In Black, came out. A song called "Me & Mr. Jones" released and it sparked rumors of an affair or at least a crush. At her first US show in NYC at Joe's Pub, Winehouse declared her love for Nas before performing the track. It mentions a Slick Rick concert and contains the lyrics "Mr. Destiny, 9 and 14." Destiny is Nas' daughters name and 9/14 is the birthday Nas & Winehouse share.
This March, it was reported that Amy's new album had been delayed but she was communicating with Nas: "Amy and Nas have been singing to each other on Skype" the source told UK's Daily Star. "Her new album has a large hip-hop influence to it and Nas fits right into the sound she's wanting now."
A few days before the Nas and Amy partied together, Amy told the same news source that her album would be released within the next six months.
Now we are seeing the two together... An affair? Good friends? Drunk buddies for the night? Maybe he really was trying to just get her out of there safely.. Not trying to speculate but its hard not to.. Who knows, I'm just hoping they get in the studio together and make some good music.
