Wu-Tang Clan and Nas are joining forces for a U.S. co-headlining tour. With 25 dates lined up across the states, the tour kicks off August 30 in St. Louis, MO.

Pulling its name from Nas’ Illmatic track, the tour is called “N.Y. State Of Mind.” However, folks were quick to point out that, despite the name of the tour, the hip-hop legends will not be playing anywhere in New York.

Now, it’s here we have to question the conditions and limits surrounding what it means to be in a “N.Y. State Of Mind.” Can you be in a “N.Y. State Of Mind” anywhere? Or it a place you can only reach within New York’s state limits? Furthermore, is there a possibility that you can only be in a “N.Y. State Of Mind” outside of the New York metropolitan era? Never mind the nitty gritty details, if you want to see Wu-Tang and Nas this year, have fun in Jersey.
