"Nastradamus" is the first single off of Nas' fourth album Nastradamus. It was produced by L.E.S.. The music video was originally released in 3-D with Tower Records providing "Nastradamus" 3-D glasses as a tie in. Nas debuted the video with Carson Daly on MTV's TRL in November 1999. The beat uses the sample "The Monorail Express" by the J.B.'s, the same one EPMD used on their song "Let the Funk Flow" from their 1988 album Strictly Business. A music video directed by Jeff Byrd was released too.
