I have finally gotten a chance to sit down and talk a little bit about Nas and this new album. Nas brings the truth to the mic, he always use his fame to sent a positive message to the people! At the jump with the release of Illmatic, Nas has brought a gritty ill style to the art form and has established himself as one of the best rappers to ever touch the mic. With the bold title of “Nigger” Nas has dropped another bomb on the hip-hop community and continuing the pattern of others with the use of “Nigger” Ol' Dirty Bastard’s 1999 Nagga Please album N.W.A's Efil4zaggin, Gravediggaz's Niggamortis renamed 6 Feet Deep, Tim Dog's Bronx Nigga and Yella's One Mo Nigga To Go and Heather B's My Kinda Nigga. Nas’s album continuing on from “Hip Hop is Dead” paints the picture of hip hop today and the effects it has had on people as well as shedding light on the history of the art form. This album was long overdue, I truly fans will listen to the message in the words and change the train of thought among the public.
This is one of my favorite tracks on the album along with “Here Comes Escobar”:
Big John
Big john was a frequent visitor of the show; he is the type of cat that loves the music and the lifestyle.
