Nas’ Nigger pushed back to Negro Month

nas460.jpg

Nas’ controversial album “Nigger” has been pushed back to Black History month (February for all you lames). Good move in my opinion. He can avoid dropping with a crapload of other albums, and then cause MORE controversy by releasing Nigger during Black pride month. Nas, you marketing beast you….

In other news, Nas spoke to MTV about the lackluster snippet released over the weekend:

Nas himself clarified to MTV News that “What It Is” will definitely not be on the album. Those are vocals that were leaked and added onto a random beat. … I never rhymed to that beat,” he said.

Good news. My guess? Some shitty wanna-be producer made the beat and laid the vocals over it to get a little fame, maybe even hope that Nas would use his beat. Boy did that backfire.

  3. Your A Dip Shit | 11.27.2007 @ 8:54 pm

    Yeah For One Its Not Black Pride Week Asshole. Its Black History Month. Anyways I Dont Know Why Hes Wasting Time Pushing The Album Back. Most Of The Track Everyone Has All Ready Heard. Im Sure There Will Be A New Joint Or Two But Its Just A Best Of Album. So Either Way Who Gives A Shit If Its Pushed Back. Nas Is My “Nigga” But Drop It Already And Get Focused On Makin A New Album Better Then Hip-Hop Is Dead. Thats It Peace

    I really wanna punch nas in the face for that.

  12. Jay | 11.27.2007 @ 10:12 pm

    I AGREE IT IS A PUBLICITY STUNT. NOWADAYS THAT IS WHAT EMCEES NEED FOR THEIR SHIT TO BE HEARD.

  13. 402 | 11.27.2007 @ 10:12 pm

    Yo Nas do your thing. I think the message will be well respected when it drops in february. Fellas, Nas tells the tales that most are afraid to tell like their fingers will get cut off, hint hint to you history buffs. He goes under scrutany for us as a race and as a part of the nation of hip hop so with that said its a reason that his album is called Nigger as well as being dropped in Feb.

  14. HIP-HOP HEAD | 11.27.2007 @ 10:16 pm

    NAS IS THE PERFECT CANDIDATE TO MAKE AN ALBUM CALLED NIGGER. I MEAN WHO ELSE IN THE INDUSTRY CAN DO THAT YOUNG JOC……LOL

  15. DAffydizzle | 11.27.2007 @ 10:18 pm

    i have a feeling that Nas album is not ganna be call Nigger…
    Same shit happen to GAyme when he try to name his album Nigga Witta Attitude instead he named it The Documentry

  16. HIP-HOP HEAD | 11.27.2007 @ 10:20 pm

    IT’LL BE FUNNY IF HE HAS EMINEM ON THE ALBUM AND IN TURN EM MAKES AN ALBUM CALLED HONKY OR CRACKER AND HAVE NAS ON IT. THAT’LL STIR UP SOME SHIT.

  17. REESE | 11.27.2007 @ 10:21 pm

    nas is the only nigga that can do some shit like that i hope he blow up from this cd and be back on top again. he gon either the rap game wit this one niggers (hahaha)

  18. gunot_17 | 11.27.2007 @ 10:29 pm

  20. aljgasaogijpq;aelkj | 11.27.2007 @ 10:47 pm

    u niggas is wack NAS still da shit all u dudez is hatin on ma dude NaS he still the most lyrical 1 in da game fuk wit it.

  30. 3PA-ANW | 11.28.2007 @ 4:04 pm

    So “Godson”, Mr “Iam” i guess all the knowledge is a fluke eh! Granted Hip Hop is under attack at the moment and the artist are all considered bad. But “nigga” is this suppose to help hip hop or are u just cashin in on contro. well as an activist for the hip hop community i say im worried about your direction u like many other geez to this game are failing considerably when it comes to repect for this Hip Hop society. Now i understand what 2 pac was so madd about with all of u on top in our current/present day of hip hop. He stated if we left the responsibilty of the industry in the hand of Nas,Jayz, to name a few that the game would change for the worst regarless of millions earned hip hop has lost its voice. But i do believe it lives on. Now the future is our present and the geez, presidents, owners, and forgotten lyricist of the game have forgotten and disrepected the power of hip hop. i do not believe in censorship regardless the reason but i do believe in respect for thyself and everyone. Now Nas like i said i am a great fan since young but at some time we have to claim reponsibility for our communities hip hop included and thats where im at right now and u either my age or one year older so i believe with your stardom and knowledge and maths on life your in a better position to make some more reponsible decisions. not to say your the worst cause u are not but u one of the last that knows better so just for that u are the one! Godson! holla back! just an important opinion.! thanks

    Hip Hop Dont let em rock u too Sleep!chop em, popem an boxem in deep !
    Society wont recognize poverty if the poor dont speak up!

  31. wtf | 11.28.2007 @ 4:05 pm

  32. Profound | 11.28.2007 @ 5:38 pm

  33. QueensFinest | 11.28.2007 @ 7:10 pm

    as much as i luv nas, this nigga should not release in that month, bad enuff hiphop got a bad rep, now u gon get oprah and congress fukin talkin shit about this game

  34. juice | 11.29.2007 @ 1:45 am

    its not about NAS its about that word NIGGA what does it mean? think about it.. you can get killed or accepted all in one over that word What Does NIGGER mean? whats the difference in NIGGA? pronucation.. you see how powerful this word is, PAY ATTENTION and figure it out like i said 2008 its going be real scary so lets stop the hate and PAY ATTENTION!!!!!!! but foreal on another note, on something totaly different this is what the govt. is on NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM look it up, figure it out, put 2 together and be on the look out for it because its coming so the best thing to do is of course you know PAY ATTENTION!!! PEACE

  35. AL BOOGIE | 11.29.2007 @ 3:43 am

    ITS GONNA BE A HOT ALBUM, AND I CAN’T WAIT TO HEAR IT. I HOPE ITS BETTER THAN HIP HOP IS DEAD BECAUSE THAT WAS NOWHERE NEAR WHAT I EXPECTED IT TO BE.

  36. DiggyDoc | 11.29.2007 @ 9:00 am

    Fuck what the man thinks, Nas is gonna do whatever he feels necassary. He’s got nothing to lose, he doesn’t have endorsements so he isn’t restricted by that. Him naming the album “nigger” just makes me think of his song black zombies, and ya’ll actin like that

  37. DiggyDoc | 11.29.2007 @ 9:03 am

    hold up a sec, anyone esle get those ads to the right for ebay about negro collectibles

  38. Clip | 11.29.2007 @ 11:26 am

    Nasir Jonse is my hero :)

  39. Clip | 11.29.2007 @ 11:26 am

    Jones* my bad haha

  40. DOfTheMP | 11.29.2007 @ 1:22 pm

    It’s kinda sad to see Nas playing to the media so much. He’s still one of my favorite rappers, but save the stupid little publicity stunts for the pop stars like 50 and Kanye, stick to lettin the music be your claim. Also I cracked up at that Black Pride Week comment. That was classic.

  41. t-money | 11.29.2007 @ 2:45 pm

    fuck its fuckin dumb to name your album nigger its just setting us black people back further an further what is he tryin to prove

  42. antonio31 | 11.29.2007 @ 6:06 pm

    for all u dumbs people out there that think the word “nigger” is refered to as black people are stupid and uneducated. it only hurts the people that think nigger is a deagratory toward blacks…nas u can go ahead and name yo album as u please…bc all these blacks that are complaining about the title are the same reason why black people don’t stick together…allthe other races stick together; white,asian,indian,…except dumb ass black people who wanna gangbang and give “other” people a reason to down grade blacks

  43. Heatz | 11.29.2007 @ 10:27 pm

    Sad to say, but the dude above me is telling the truth, black people sure as hell don’t stick together, that’s why we got Jena 6 and stuff happening and crap (I know we went down there, and protested, but we still don’t have each other backs on the real, else they wouldn’t do stuff like that to us), becuase 1st, we make fools as our selfs, example, this Nas album, 2nd, most blacks think being a G is all there is to live for, 3rd, we killing our own off, yeah yeah yeah, it’s the “white” man, do you dead think that if we didn’t act this way, that the “white” man would treat us the same, BLACK PEOPLE NEED TO DEAD START THINKING, WE A DIEING RACE!

  44. chase | 11.30.2007 @ 2:13 am
