Just a Moment, the third and last single off of Nas' Street's Disciple is viewed as one of the best songs in Nas' catalog and hip hop as a whole. However, it was to be used as Quan's own song instead. But Nas used his name to elevate the status of his latest protege.

Music Video

The video features an urban surrounding and many reminders of lost ones through empty rooms, wind, liquor being poured out of respect.

Nas mentions Islam and Christianity as ways for one to have or regain faith. Nas also mentions his own mother saying "Mommy I'm Still here, wishing I was there with you...". Quan mentions his fallen friends and his promise of taking care of his sister's child, while she is in Iraq.
