Nas can't outsell Jay Z by himself, but with my help there's nothing the little homey can't do.

NaS Lost rose to the top of the Amazon charts in its category pretty much as it was released yesterday and has remained there ever since. Hopefully, it'll remain there permanently, because that'll save me from having to have any ambition in life ever again.

It's also still the number one music book (not just rap music, mind you) in the iTunes store.

The paperback version is in the top 10 in its category at Amazon, behind multiple formats of books by ?uestlove, Jay Z and 50 Cent. So really it's like fifth. They didn't have it in the right category yesterday, when it probably had the best chance of hitting #1. I thought about emailing Jeff Bezos, but they don't have his address listed, so I just called it an evening. I woke this morning, and they had it listed with the rest of the rap books. They must wait until a few people buy it and then try to ascertain their race via the NSA's PRISM program.

The few sites who have written about the book so far:

ANIMAL | Hip-Hop Wired | Hypebeast | Soletron | Industry314 | Unkut | Rap Genius | Black Sheep Magazine | Theotis Jones

Don't see your site listed here? It's because you're gay. Get with the program!

They even named a river after this strange phenomenon.. :gladbron:

Indiana's Lost River is one of the most complex hydrological systems in the world. This photo shows the terminus zone of the river. Photo by Bowden QuinnVisit the river after a week of rain, however, and you will see an entirely different watercourse. The river flows on past the point where it once vanished, and swallowholes farther down the riverbed that haven't had a gulp of water in a long while get their chance to chug the flowing water. The more rain that falls, the farther down the riverbed the water will flow, and the more violent the maelstroms over the swallowholes. The huge piles of intertwined tree trunks lying over the larger downstream swallow holes in dry weather are testimony to the hydraulic power of the system when in full flood.The reason for the river's complex hydrology is the soluble limestone over which it flows. The water has gradually eaten away the stone, opening up holes and underground channels. In upland areas, the same process forms sinkholes, which are depressions where rainwater runs into underground channels. One square mile in the Lost River watershed has 1,022 sinkholes.

Check link for a pic. Indie artist nas has his own river y'all. Imagine a camel passing through it, quenching its thirst.. :mindblown:


And they're even making documentaries about it, including the relationship with his daughter and Black Girl Lost: http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0970967/

Decent reviews too.. :leon:
