Shortly after Amy Winehouse passed away earlier this year, Queens rap deity Nasir Jones confirmed long-swirling rumors that Winehouse’s song “Me And Mr. Jones” had been named in honor of him, and that the two had been close. Winehouse and Nas never released any music together when Winehouse was alive. But Winehouse’s forthcoming posthumous collection Lioness: Hidden Treasures features “Like Smoke,” a track that features Nas — though Nas’s lyrics, which offer a heartfelt elegy to Winehouse and reference Occupy Wall Street, were most definitely recorded after Winehouse’s death. Salaam Remi, a frequent collaborator of both artists, produces. Hear the track below.

Lioness: Hidden Treasures is out 12/5 on Island.

*sigh* I miss her.
Same.
thank you.
Gosh, her voice is so phenomenal. I still can’t believe she’s dead. Her music really hits the soul. :(
Amy Amy Amy, I love your voice and the sweet soul that you lace your music with.
amy winehouse = kitty genovese
should have read that social psych text a little closer – doesn’t make even a DROP of sense.
It’s so nice to listen to her voice once again, feels like she’s recording again. Miss her.
