Why Nas is Still My Favorite MC

Posted on 16 July 2008 by AJK

Love or hate him, you can’t deny the fact that Nas never hesitates to speak his mind.

As you all know, Nas’ new album “Untitled” dropped yesterday. As many of you also know, the album originally had a different and far more controversial title - namely one that had masses of people who understood his plan supporting him, while the rest assumed the logic behind the original title was precisely the opposite of what Mr. Nasir Jones actually intended. Ultimately the original album name, Nigger, was dropped.

I swung by Union Square to get a signed copy (I’m still like a teenage fan when it comes to Nas) and the picture above is how Nas himself signed my cd - and pretty much the majority of the other thousand or so people who also purchased @ the signing.

Anyone who still doesn’t understand the intent behind the original album name should have a listen to it and read what is written inside the CD inlet- I’m talkin to you Media (Fox News and friends), Labels (who fronted on the support - Def Jam) and March Organizers (nut-ripping Jesse & Big hair Al).
