Nas is at a point where he might just become forgotten as a rapper, so he has to make a HUGE move... like naming an album HHID or N*****. Afterall, it happen in nearly every other artform. It's the art that's eternal and the artists fades into memory. Is it THAT hard to believe that Nas is trying to make a splash in the water for attention? I mean diiiizamn.... the album is called N*****!!
for the comment I quoted (not going to open up the can of worms w/ the Jay quote), again, I dont think youre looking from a clear perspective. Nas is one ofthe rare rappers who has had this kinda longevity and can still sell records. I mean, he's never dropped one album that has done Nelly/Em/50 numbers, buthe has like 9-10 LPs and all of them have plat plaques (not sure, but I think Jay is the only other rapper who can say that), so its not like he's at apoint where he's desperate to do anything to sell records...but I mean, of course he's trying to 'make a splash' with this album, he hassomething to say. Also, its not like this is ''out the blue" so-to-speak, its not like he dont have his reasons or motivation behind the title,which you may be ignoring...
And you still are ignoring, as stated, that post Stillmatic he start dropping the music he wanted to drop, which is thought to be 'purest' music sincethe beginning of his career.
The only difference is how deep in Nas's corner you are.
or just how off one thinks you are, so they are just arguing until you see or until they realize how stubburn somebody's opinion is?(I too, am bored...)
