Nas Changes Album Title

[AKAZIE]

^^^^^ so that would of been 80% of his record sales.

"hey folks you heard that new nas??....
"whats the name of it"
"ummm...its uh uh, let me just go show you"

you know alot of people are probaly happy it got changed

lol

Like some white people haven't been LOOKING for a reason to say "nigger" again...

 

[Dark Shadow]

I don't think many white people would have picked the album up...

and yet so many were listening to NWA stfu

 

[B-San]

Good for Nas...

 

[Meta4iCAL]

booo!

I heard him in an interview where he said there was no way he was gonna change the title

 

[DenverInput]

damn man that sucks he changed it

 

[Blaza_4_Eva]

puuuuuuussy!!!!!

 

[Meta4iCAL]

seriously it would be awkward talkin about the album for white people

if I was around black people I didn't know real well I'd be hesitant to talk about it

I'd be stoppin in mid-sentence thinkin bout what I'm gonna say

 

[TrEmEnDo InDo]

I dont think his album was covering the actual history of racism. I think it was more of his way saying Im black and your white dont you wish you was black.

Are u serious??

this just proves he is washed up

13 years later.

 

[TRAJIK1]

thats gay he should left it alone

Its the fore, not the latter. Now, they can stock this album in Wal-Mart's. At the end of the day, Nas is signed to one of the biggest record labels in the industry, and their #1 priority is to SELL RECORDS. Without outlets like Wal-Mart, that hinders their potential success.

close thread.

 

[REdRUM]

I read on some forum a few weeks back that someone in his inner circle joked that he wanted to name it "I AM NIGGER" (I Am Legend)...

LOL

 

[GHP]

nas album would have probably flopped if he named it that

 

[MaddDogg]

and yet so many were listening to NWA stfu

Hmmm…

none of his albums were that great. besides i keep hearing people saying he still has it

 

[noWetaG]

Disappointed in his 180, u have to have the balls to stand up for your convictions.......

As a big NAS fan i have to say that
ILLMATIC, IT WAS WRITTEN, STILLMATIC & GOD'S SON are good albums....
other than that he is very hit n miss, like almost every other rapper....
BUT that doesnt dismiss the fact hes a dope lyricist that actually talks bout summn....
