Is Nas an A-List Celebrity?

[Life is Good]

If nas was an actor he would be Daniel day Lewis. Not the most prolific or bankable, but one of the most revered and maybe the best

But he is getting major endorsement deals, executive producing for tv networks TNT & TBS and Netflix. I would think he is pretty bankable and his music skills are absolutely prolific.

I m only talking records sales (album singles) not personal investments. Even tho he have a solid fan base that helps him take the n1 week sale and achieve gold status. He's not gonna sell big firsts few weeks but he will sell regularly in the long run.

In the hiphop world Nas is clearly A-list and on the top legend/immortal level. If you mean like a tabloid/TMZ type fame? The answer is no...but I would consider Nas without a doubt something more like a lower level A-List because he's known and respected by the types in the know that run in those A-List circles. You can read countless interviews over the years from his debut to now talking about how Nas doesn't like being in the media and is very introverted. He has never really sought fame.

Why would anyone want to be A list for TMZ or tabloids? But anyway, TMZ would probably disagree because that gossip site thought Nas was A list when he was going through his divorce.

I agree but that's what many people are considering as A-List celebs....the types that are all over tabloid news

How does this not make him prolific or bankable? Most people in business care about the end results that you claim Nas displays in the long run.

Nas is a Low Level A lister because he wants to be he isn't that social. I mean Leo the gawd hangs with him a lot and he is cool various actors and musicians. His personality is more like a 60's artist where they did their craft and their social life as a mystery.

Exposure.

Ice t been on law and order, new jack city, his own reality show, as well as several different commercials.

LL is LL. His resume speaks for itself.

Same thing goes for will and snoop.

yeah like made you look
I wouldn't say he was still tryna sell out by this time but he was still finding himself

Nas is a top 5 MC of all time and all these A list celebrities are about 30-36 so they grew up hearing Nas
