Funny how all of you are in here stressing about Nas's money when Nas clearly isn't...


Yeah I feel you. You were talking in a recent interview about how you were thinking about putting records to rest, you’ve never been that dude to be about going into endorsements and stuff some people have said that you haven’t been as much about your business as you should have been. Do you think that’s something fair for people to say about you?

"People will have the right to feel what they want to feel about whatever, but you have to realize all the rappers that you see complain about their careers, you ain’t heard Nas complaining. [Laughs.] You don’t get to hear this fukking-around-bullshyt. This shyt is real, shyt that I deal with I don’t know what these cats are thinking about.

If Snoop Dogg makes a flute or a flute dog, now Nas got to make one. If Jay makes fukking pillars for helicopters now Nas got to make pillars. That's where they get it a little twisted and start judging each other about status, it’s corny shyt. It’s slave mentality shyt because yeah all the races do envy each other and business and shyt, but us we envy each other on the littlest achievements. It’s cool man. If I decided that I wanted to do movies, I’ll do them. If I want to do clothes, I’ll do them. And none of the shyt out there is rocket science trust me."

Lol when Control dropped nobody was thinking about if 50 would respond. This guy doesn't realize he hasn't been a big musically for 6 years. People were wondering if the king of NY jay would respond. Not a guy who hasn't dropped an album in half a decade

50 wasn't mentioned, why would he respond. It's only Jay who care about the king of NY title. The title died with Biggie.

if nas is so poor and according to you smart people has all these tax problems, why has he not yet stood in front of a judge. in 2011/2 dudes taxes were around 6 million. lauryn got send to jail for owing 1 million and fat joe for owing 700 k. nas manager/money dude (i think his name is saleh, not quite sure about the name) in 2012 said that the problem got handled. one house foreclosure and dude has no money. in divorce precedings in 2010, it was revealed that nas has like 5 houses to his name, along with all kinds of other things like he has a 24/7chauffeur in new york, number of cars, one of his houses in the dominicans(i think it was the dominicans) and his business ventures (e.g. guerrila union,rock the bells,etc..) GOOGLE IT!
dude is living lavishly. he does not have to pay carmen no more(destiny is 18) and kelis is also already cut off or about to get cut off(according to law). nas is a low-key dude and never has felt the need to correct any viscious rumors unless he gets asked about it. He doesn't give two squirts of piss what the public thinks of his personal life. G'S MOVE IN SILENCE....i guess nas is the only one who actually lives that line. TRUTH!!!!!!!

F+ck Flex...

50 was about to give an ill analogy and this dude interrupted with his BS...


I listen to genres of music other than hip hop, and I have seldom heard the "Beatles are better than Rolling Stones because they made more money" arguments...

But this argument is central in any hip hop discussion...That's why the music is not as good as it used to be...


Rolling Stones are better...Which is besides the point

if that was case you then you have answered my 1st response, which was NOT paying taxes = hurtin...also when I brought up that plenty of people owe the IRS in fact have gone to jail for less, so if he is hurtin the way you claim why haven't we seen any of this? also that plenty of people such as Donald Trump and others have claimed bankrupt but that doesn't=them actually being brbboke..you went the route of being sarcastic instead of being rational...

I had to chime in. Donald Trump had to restructure debt and workout a deal to get those banks to heel. Dissolving a corporation doesn't mean personal bankruptcy though...


No idea how that ties into the IRS, Trump owed to institutional lenders not to government.

definitely right about Nas making bad business decisions in the 90s, that sowed the seeds for where he is now and where Jay is. I love Nas but for all the shyt he talks about science...dude just didn't have a business mind. He's better now but he kinda wasted his best years, business wise.

he's a artist nikka, wtf u worried about his buisness acumen for?
