What's brave about it when he's no longer relevant? Lol where was this in 96 when he was Luciano/Escobar? Nas fans are cute.

:what: he didn't say anything deep. Just typical smart dumb nas. This nikka really said its "surreal" to be invited to the JFK center. I hate nikkas who just toss around words without knowing their meaning.

He said he used to dream of such, now he's there - it's surreal. It's not an improper use of the word. What you should've picked up on, is where he said "it's kind of like surreal". I think that people tend to get hung up on the "bizarre" definition, but completely ignore that it also describes something grounded in reality but dreamlike in qualities.

What rapper i Deep to you? We're talking about talking about an honest experience. Nas song Daughters is an honest experience that comes straight from his life.

nas isn't deep. every interview i've seen of his is laughable. he's inarticulate, fumbling words and saying stuff that might impress smart dumb nikkas but makes other people go :heh: strangely, he's A LOT more capable with words when he's rhyming. comparing his lyrics on the mic to his statements when being interviewed has oftentimes made me go :what:
