This song help me get through the hardest time of my life. My mom was battling colon cancer at the time. I feel what Nas was going threw his mom was sick with cancer too, thats why he was out the game for awhile taking care of his mom and daughter. I had to be strong for my son through it all and wanting to beat down those who wished bad on my mom and her sisters that werent there for her. I have mad respect for Nas as a son and father.
Nas & Alicia Keys should work together more. That'd be one hell of a duo! NY STATE OF MIND III (Streets of New York with Rakim too) was better than Empire State of Mind.
more than likely his mic was not working properly, when I went to see him and Damien Marley in Manchester, he never missed a lyric, and also nas had to sing more songs than expected because Damien Marley mic had ****ed up
@abi2512 9 minutes ago @allgregjockca fuck u, u cocksucker. WOW great come back from a tough punk. THIS MUSIC ISN'T CRAP BECAUSE IT ISN'T EVEN MUSIC, IT IS SHIT. So you can suck my cock after I finish banging your mother
loll, ILLMATIC wasn't even Nas' best album, it was HIP HOP's best album hands down, ppl like pac n scarface n dmx n eminem all cud give Nas a run, but based on a single album, nobody touched ILLMATIC, n seeing where the music industry's heading, nobody will
@ms0487a i know he fucked up., he's been fucking up 2 much lately., the deal w/def jam was whack., well atleast he got a chance to put out the album w/gong.,
Que pena que la gente todabia esten con perjucio de rasismo que rayo importa si Alicea sea blanca,morena,hispana lo que sea,aqui lo importante es que es una chica talentosa que canta bonito,toca piano exelente musico y en vez de apoyarla algunos se dediquen a insultarla, el que no quiera verla que no entre,que busquen el artista de su preferencia y los vean por eso you tube brinda servicio para todo los gusto,ella no es monedita de oro para caerle bien a todo el mundo.eh dicho caso cerrado!!!
NAS FOREVER FUCK THE REST!!!nas is ma number one...this is real music and he is real...I need a man like him...none of 'em can touch nas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who cares about hair styles, she's probably the most talented girl in the business, she's a songwriter, produces her songs (and produced this song too), plays instruments, can sing... she can go baldheaded and it won't change the fact that I will love her and support her :)
Yeah your right. I mean, by straightening her hair to appear more "white" and "socially accepted". Who care what effects that has on her young female fans.
she is half white, even if she had it in mind that she wanted to whiten up, doesnt she have that choice to do so. But shes a beautiful woman and if you know any, you know that they change there hair all the time. be cool homey
To be honest I can not totally disagree with you but I dont really think that was her purpose. She has so many different looks we will have to see if she come out in future days and weeks in some of the hairstyles we have been accustom to seeing her
wow, i realised when i listen to nas i cant really understand some lyrics but when he's live or in video's i understand his lyrics. Which makes be conclude he is the best rapper dead or alive..forget best rapper he is one of the worlds best writer's
Yes his name is Nasir and is fathers name is oludara which is yoruba name and even my name is oludoja ...listen to the song he did with his father and u will truely found out
Nah. His father isnt Nigerian though that's my point. He chose that name for himself. Nas' middle name is also Olu Dara and I know it's Yoruba. Me I'm Nigerian myself. Nas ain't Nigerian though. His father just traveled to Africa and learned the culture. If you listen to the song he says I've been to Mozambique Madagascar etc. But trust me he ain't Nigerian. I wish he was though.
But why cant u just explain better to me and let me understand even if aint right? but sound like i bitch with a full of cums in his face ...so we can start here motherfucker....u son of bitch with an hairy pussy.....holla back clown
yeah Nas is my greatest rapper and AK is my greatest R&B singer....I love them both so much....Nas's best album was God's Son and Alicia Keys best album was Songs in a Minor
very shit song

That maybe so, but that doesn't mean you have to straighten it or maybe it does. However my point still stands.
By straightening her hair to appear more "white" and "socially accepted". Who care what effects that has on her young female fans.
All blame is not on her though, for you see see is not the only one guilty of time "crime".

I doubt it. To see her braided up are long gone. Whether she done it to appear more white or loose that lesbian rumor, not quite sure.
However i see a lot of black/mixed women in the publics eye doing it. So i guess it's more the former reason then the latter.
