nah would have been wack and quite hypocritical that someone as pro-black as Nas would play around with lynching imagery aimed at another black man. shyt is ignorant and I'm glad he didn't do it.
You mean you're glad he wasn't allowed to do it, because Nas was all for it and spent money on it. Hot 97 saved Nas from himself.

Being like 14 around the time this was about to happen I didn't think it was a big deal at the time

Looking back now and actually seeing this video, Hot97 kinda saved Nas on this one...

Definitely not a good look

And the white dudes in that video are too comfortable to me

would have been a GOAT moment

i guess im not thinkin about the historical context, because nas is black. you think he isnt aware of the historical context :what: people were hung all the time, not to discount the awful shyt that went on in this country but it doesnt automatically equal white mobs lynching black man if he hung a jay z effigy

remember when the american colonists were hanging king george in effigy? i look at it as exactly the same thing

:comeon:

The lengths people go to defend a rapper :wow:
I'm not Nas bodyguard my G. But the shyt I said makes a lot more sense than this peanut butter and jelly bullshyt" Nas is a slave master" theory

hey, if u want the fukkin answer for why he was gonna do it then ask nas :heh:

I was referrin to "the people get hung all the time" part I shoulda bolded it.I don't care about no euro cacs gettin hung.A black man should never re enact a hanging on a fellow black man period.There's other ways to get your point across

yup

if hot97 would have allowed this to happen it would have greatly hurt nas career as well as hot97 as a station

people always like to mention stuff like "oh jay was hurt by ether"

but look at the degree nas went to animatronics are NOT cheap nas spent this money and even though he didnt use it dude aint get a refund lol

but to take it this far

your definitely emotional dont care who you are

and he ran to power 105 to complain and bytch about it after hot97 said no he left and didnt perform just walked out of summer jam


but anyway


a black man doing a mock lynching of a black man would in no way have any positive spin on it at all


yea a lot of internet morons would be on some "fukk camel nas god nas true king"

but anyone with that low level on intelligence doesnt have a valid voice in life

to think doing this would have elevated nas in any aspect is beyond constipated thought

although it didnt happen thankfully the fact nas attempted this to be will always be a low point in his career and as a person

:salute:

nas stans got selective memory, they always make it seem like he dropped ether then sailed off into the sunset

almost signing with murder inc would've been another dumb move

fair enough. actually i should have left that out, since my point was that hanging someone in effigy isnt necessarily a racist or even american thing. its almost always political

nas could do no wrong during that time period from a fan and momentum perspective.
if he did dat on hot 97, that might have been the final nail in the coffin
jay-z already couldnt walk the streets without random fans screaming "fukk jay-z' at him:mjlol:

hot 97 was playing favorites with Jay the second the battle started
it was so obvious
nas let it go for a while but that was the last straw for him
he was more angry and emotional towards hot 97 than jay

but on the real, nas lost his mind for a bit after his mom died
he was ready to go at everyone
i remember reading in xxl or something that he made songs dissing a whole bunch of rappers for gods son but erased them
