Apparently Life Is Good for iconic rapper Nas, who has announced that he's recently signed on as the executive producer of a film analyzing the impact of B-boy culture around the globe.

All Hip Hop reports that  the Queens MC is attached to filmmaker Adam Sjöberg's Shake the Dust, which looks at how break dancing has spread around the world. In particular, the film will look at case studies in Colombia, Uganda, Yemen and Cambodia.

"What these kids are doing around the world reminds me why I fell in love with hip-hop and how important it is as a creative and constructive outlet," Nas said in a statement. "After hearing Adam's vision for this project and hearing the stories, I was incredibly excited to help bring the film to global audiences who need to hear this surprising message of empowerment."

In addition to his producing role, Nas will also contribute music to the film. You can catch a preview of what to expect via the dance move-loaded trailer down below.
