By now, everyone should know about Baz Luhrmann’s new show The Get Down coming to Netflix this August. The show, which counts Nas as an executive producer, sheds light on the formation of hip-hop in the late ’70s and the environment from which the genre sprouted.
In a fresh new trailer for the show which you can see above, a new song from Nas is featured.
“I came from the city, back in the time / 1977, it was maximum crime / The Bronx, we had to rumble with rivals on the rubble while buildings around us would crumble / But yo my life began last year, sophomore of high school / That summer I saw her, said to myself, ‘She’ll be my wife soon,'” spits Nas in the teaser.
Grandmaster Flash will also contribute to the film as well as Daveed Diggs, who starred in Hamilton: The Musical.
Luhrmann recently said that Nas is a “huge creative force” behind the project. By the looks of these trailer, this show is shaping up to be incredible.OwI, Groovy Tony, game time67 and 2 others like this.Dec 23, 2025(This ad goes away when signing up) -

This sums up my The Get Down experience as well.
Not Netflix's best show, and they certainly could've allocated their money better, but I've really enjoyed watching and I'm invested in all the characters. Looking forward to part 2.
