NAS - JAY-Z AND NAS SETTLE THEIR DIFFERENCES

Rappers JAY-Z and NAS have ended their longrunning feud - and they thrilled fans by uniting onstage at a New Jersey concert on Thursday night (27OCT05).

As the headliner of local radio station Power 105.1's Power House, Jay-Z had promised surprise guest performances.

And the unexpected truly occurred when Jay-Z invited his longtime nemesis onto the stage, prompting deafening applause, before performing his track DEAD PRESIDENTS.

Afterwards, the two rappers stood side-by-side for nearly two minutes as the crowd cheered. Nas then performed a roughly 15minute set of his tracks, before reuniting with SEAN 'DIDDY' COMBS for their collaboration HATE ME NOW.

KANYE WEST, Combs and Jay-Z then reconnected with Nas for JayZ's ENCORE to cap the night.

Among the other guests were BEANIE SIGEL, TI, YOUNG JEEZY and AKON. Newcomers BOYZ N DA HOOD, TEAIRRA MARI and NE-YO also performed short sets.
