"Bridging the Gap" is a single from Nas' Street's Disciple, and features his father, Olu Dara.

The second single from Street's Disciple, it samples music from Muddy Waters' "Mannish Boy" composition.

Olu Dara provides the hook of the song by talking about his path and how Nas was born.

The music video was directed by Diane Martel and shows Nas and Olu Dara on a stage with women dancing in the background.

At the end of the video, Dara stands still next to Nas and says with a smile, "Rest in peace, Ray Charles," as a sign of respect.
