It was requested many times but he hasn't blatantly refused....just declined at the moment. Truthfully these people that host these shows are NOT that fond of Nas and he is very aware of that. He respects their craft but he is in a positive space and wants to continue to surround himself with that.

Yup..was on Twitter basically shytting on Nas heavy and dikkridin Jay...why would Nas even waste his time interviewin wit a nikka like that?..funny too cause nikkas like that act completely different in front of him..dumb ass nikka even retweeted someone sayin "Nas aint nowhere near Jay and I feel like most of the love Nas gets is from Jay-Z hate.."..that let me know the nikka is a blind hater..
Indeed, the one of many things great about Nas is he is very aware of his enemies. He knows these people dislike him due to their own lack of self-worth and personal bias obsession for another artist. It really makes these industry haters mad that Nas doesn't care nor is he reactive when they blatantly disrespect because he knows they would be cowardly in his face.

"Some say hating is confused admiration"-Nas
Nas is saying that the ones that may hate on you are the ones that truly admire you.

You all DO know that are 12 albums worth of Nas material that you can go back and enjoy while waiting right?


Anytime I'm fiendin for some new Nas I just go back and revisit an album I haven't spun in awhile.


Listened to Gods Son for the first time in ages today and as soon as those horns hit from Get Down I was :blessed:

Is there another Distant Relatives in the works?

Also, the new album dropping soon. The Key to... Nas's longevity is his diversity. But that Diversity has also been the Achilles heel so to speak on why a classic album falls just short of being a classic to the masses
As an artist, he has to be aware of what I'm talking about. Me, I'm a writer, so I have some incite in the creative process. With that said, don't ever sell out. If I hear a song with Nas & the Chipmunks (autotune) then I'm putting him on DMX status.

Finally, we NEED a Belly 3 bruh.

The producers of the album are not revealed but he is having private studio sessions. I believe he is aiming for mid summer but being quiet about details.
Please tell me that Timbaland snippet is making the final cut? Tell Nas we need that one.It was vintage.

Nas old af what do you expect :stopitslime:
LOL, I remember reading Carmen's book and she was saying Nas was lazy even back before he made Illmatic but everybody just thought he was trying to perfect his music. Doesn't matter to me though because the music is still :ahh:

That dirty broad be lying though, pretty sure in the same book she said that she found Nas at some apartment....locked away for days with pages full of rhymes all over the floor.

So I be ghost from my projects
I take my pen and pad for the weekend
Hitting L's while I'm sleeping
A two day stay, you may say I needed time alone
To relax my dome, no phone, left the 9 at home

:ahh:

He dropped the J Dilla joint, the Timbo snippet that was a leak and the J Cole freestyle and he been on a ton of guests verses (Mariah, J Lo, Wiz, Madonna, Schoolboy Q, Jay-Z, Fashawn)

Mostly he seems to be genuinely busy with producing and being involved in 2 documentaries, touring the 20th Annversary Illmatic tour, getting Mass Appeal records up and running and investing in all those companies. So at least we cant say he's beeen lazy

We probably won't get an album from the GOAT until next year. No way his album drops in the summer like he said.
