New From Nas


The long awaited album from Nas is still being pushed back after all of the controversy over his decision to change the name from "Nigger" . There were many rumours flying around that Def Jam had refused to release the album under the old name, and as a result Nas went on record to say "It's important to me that this album gets to the fans". Def Jam has denied this though, and Nas has made the move to leave the album untitled now.

Here is a statement Nas made:




"It's important to me that this album gets to the fans," Nas told AllHipHop.com in a statement. “It's been a long time coming. I want my fans to know that creatively and lyrically, they can expect the same content and the same messages. It's that important. The streets have been waiting for this for a long time. The people will always know what the real title of this album is and what to call it."

Whenever it is finally released, it will be interesting to see what he comes with. In the meantime here is a track from the upcoming album titled "N.I.G.G.E.R (the slave and the master)", take a listen...
