Preakness got a lot of young, white folks with disposable income. No different than doing a small benefit show out in the Hamptons.

The Pearkness has had music acts preform over the weekend there for a while including black acts.

Is there some sort of racial history about the course like the Masters? I see some black people turned up to in that picture and he was rocking a nice large crowd. Seems like Nas was doing his thing.

Kind of a reach here

Only in hip hop do artists get criticized for making capitalistic moves. Nas is an artist who gets paid to perform his art and if the Preakness wants to pay him why should he turn that down? Because it's all white people there ? Guess what 70% of the people that buy Nas's albums and go to his shows are white people. And then if Nas had money problems and was broke their would be a thread 10 pages long on here talking about " Nas lost". It's a real crabs in the barrel mentality. Hey but at least you keep it real :rudy:
This is all true but the thing is Nas and his rabid bytchmade fanbase have shytted on others for doing things similar toto what Nas has done in the past up until now. Nas and his fans have ran around calling people c00ns and accusing others of selling out while putting himself on some kind of pedastal as if he's a "real nikka down for the hood over everything else" type of dude. Nas has never been above "selling out" he's just being more blatant about it now. The L here really goes to his gay ass Internet fans who look stupid for putting him on some kind of righteous pedastal and are actually hurt finding that their "god" doesn't really exist. I would rep but I have give out like 40 more to get to you.

I don't worship the dollar. All you can take with you is your reputation and being a pseudo militant while performing at the Preakness is definitely bad for your rep. You young nikkas worship the dollar, what the fukk are you going to do with that money you swallowed your pride for?


Ummm...not be a dead-beat and pay child support.

Yeah Im not too sure seems like Hip Hop and young acts perform at races like this all the time

Eminem, Jay-Z , NERD preformed at a race in Dubai the last 3-5 years too

Hip Hop is expanding, more people are in positions who grew up listening to rap and opening the gates for artists. Dont really see the problem here unless you already dated complex views tbh
