Day two of Coachella 2014 went out with a bang, as the legendary Nas tore down the stage with a memorable performance. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of his classic album, Illmatic, Nas performed the album in it's entirety to kick off his set, with the crowd following along with every word. Nas took it to the next level though, bringing out Jay Z to run through "Dead Presidents" and "Where I'm From." As you can imagine, this sent the crowd into a frenzy, and was truly a sight to see for all hip-hop fans.

After finishing up his Illmatic cuts, Nasty Nas dug into his catalogue and performed "Made You Look," "Hate Me Now" and "One Mic." It was only right that Diddy also came out for "Hate Me Now," making it a full on celebration.
