This rhymatic explosion hits in rare form as NaS 1994 classic "It Ain't Hard To Tell" becomes dark in tone. In a rare remix version of Illmatic's lead single, an unnamed producer delivers a sinister piano loop paired with a sharp cuts on the turntables to present this QB legend as a certified threat.

When I first bought this 12" back in the late 90's my first guess is that DJ Premier might have produced it? However, since there's no credits on the record's label and this record isn't on Discogs, the producer of this gem is still a mystery.
