Sometimes, the timing of things in this world can be nothing short of absolutely crazy. It was just yesterday that DJ Terry Urban dropped his Nas/Amy Winehouse blend tape, Me and Mr. Jones.

It’s “Cherry Wine”, a silky smooth, heavily lyrical joint off Nas’ upcoming Life Is Good album. It drops July 17, but you can stream “Cherry Wine” below. Life Is Good indeed. [via]
