Nas reveals new album details

Over a year since the release of his sixth No. 1 album, "Life Is Good", Nasir "Nas" Jones is still living the good life as hip hop's distinguished Don. Following its release, the veteran New York lyricist, who celebrated his 40th birthday last month, has remained active touring across the globe, recording, and investing into business ventures to add to his ever-evolving portfolio.

During a recent interview with The Huffington Post, God's Son opened up on being the brand ambassador for Hennessy's "Wild Rabbit" campaign, in addition to details on his forthcoming 2014 as-yet-untitled opus, and plans on etching his imprint into the fashion industry.

In recent weeks you've been photographed in the studio with Mariah Carey and Jermaine Dupri. Will the collaboration appear on your album?

That's on her album, and it's a banger! I was excited to get back in the studio with her. She's one of the greatest voices of our generation. She's on another level. Just working with an artist that big really shows me how much further I can go. I've been inspired just sitting there talking to her. She's very smart and extremely talented. And I'm just happy to work with her again.

In the past you two remade Keith Sweat's timeless classic, "Make It Last Forever". If you guys could hypothetically go back and remake another classic hit, what would it be?

Wow! I think me and her would be Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell in a way. Their track, "Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing", or something like that.
