Nas Explains Controversial Album Title

You see what you guys started over at FOX... I agree 100% with Nas on this one!

"I’m talking to the streets. Stay out of our business. You ain’t got no business worrying about what the word ‘nigger’ is or acting like you know what my album is about without talking to me. Whether you in the NAACP or you Jesse Jackson. I respect all of them … I just want them to know: Never fall victim to Fox. Never fall victim to the sh– they do. What they do is try to hurry up and get you on the phone and try to get you to talk about something you might not know about yet.

"If Cornell West was making an album called Nigger, they would know he’s got something intellectual to say," Nas continued. "To think I’m gonna say something that’s not intellectual is calling me a nigger, and to be called a nigger by Jesse Jackson and the NAACP is counterproductive, counter-revolutionary."

Nas: Leader of the Free World, Marketing Genius or BOTH???

Looks like God's Son did it again! He's had the internet goin' nuts for the past few days ever since announcing he would title his next album "NIGGA" and now he's got the boob-tube on fire! I know many people disagree with Nas on his title choice and that I may be one out of only a few supporters for his most recent decision but if you watch this video and don't feel like standing up to the man (just the first few minutes with that dumb bitch from Fox reciting rhymes and sounding like a fu**ing tard got me heated enough!) then I don't know what side you wit' young homies. They used the same damn Bill O'Faggot video for God sake and they also cut off the dude from AllHipHop when he's making a point about white racism currently going on! Conveniently ending the discussion HA!

Well anyway keep in mind that Nas was going to name his last album "Nigga" at first and then changed it to "The N" because of label pressures. Then with the change in Hip-Hop he recorded new material and named it "Hip-Hop Is Dead" to prove another point. Also another thing you need to realize is that this could all just be a big marketing plot (I hope not) since Nas knows it would garner so much attention that the label heads wouldn't allow its release anyway (I wish they would). I for one hope he's serious about the title and that he doesn't let them make him back down. Call me crazy or whatever but this rap ish has always been about freedom of speech and not letting them hold you down yet when Nas decides to keep it funky everyone wants to switch it up and say he's O.D.'ing - ALL OF YOU ARE FAKE FU**S!!! A tear for the real :'(. Let's see what the Street's Disciple decides to do now that he has their ears...
