NO DOUBT! I AM a 1980 baby, so you already know as a black gal comin oughtta the aftermath of "I'm Black And I'm Proud!"---JUST to delightfully discover the first coupla hooks came from a James Brown hook from the soundtrack of a a movie of my PARENTS' primetime----And am now a mom of a 5& 1/2 and 2 year old.....Need I Say too much more beyond the fact that Nas and his Queen Kelis are my absoulute HEROES!?!?!?!?!?! God bless the Nubian Babies FOREVER!

Attention Nas fans! good news! the dancer and singer girl with curly hair in this video is singing . Her profile is under "Jrizk". Please check her out , she could be our next star. Also she is working on other songs. Please give your opinion and be honest. Yhank you.
I just learned that Jrizk is preparing a new song of her own! it is an R&B song.I wish her good luck as she is working hard on it as the message on this song says it " I know I can ".
This message is for NAS . Thank you for giving Jrizk the opportunity to stand for herself and work harder on her music! after all your message was wright. You will be proud of her if she makes it since you introduced her in this video>
i usually dont like rap and r and b and stuff like this, but i heard this song when i was 11 and i just fell in love with it. its one of the VERY few hip-hop songs i will willing listen to. it inspires.
this iz inspiritional to little kids having something that iz not talking sex all the time and having drugs making kids think that it is all bout drugs and sex and it iz not that way gotta luv dis song.
but like i said, u fuckin douchebag, what are young impressionable kids supposed to think when they hear his other songs, which they can easily acces at any time, which tell them the exact opposite of what hes telling them here? and if he really cared about kids and believed all this shit, he wouldnt continue to put out gangsta rap albums. ponder that, asshole.
aright what the fuck...this nigger i had to check back and i memba u saying dumb stuff and this proves that you are a racist that is mad that a black man makes a song to educate black children and i betcha it hurts your heart to see a rapper with sense or y else wuld u call him a ni66a and so when a kid wana check out this song instead of something else this is what they will see thanks for showing that you are a hyprocite
dg858 ur a idoit he makes different songs for different ppl this song is for children its like a actress one movie u see julia roberts in erin brokorich den da one she got famous for she was a prositutute so is she a hyprocite he coulda just kept making songs gloriying drug and gun use but he didnt n kids shouldnt even be able to listen to made you look and qtbd n even if he making songs like dis all da time ud hate him so ur just a bias prick whod hate him no matta
in 1945 a young girl named kata lata kulu came over to America in a grey boat from Africa. a mysterious man killed her by cutting the word "LATUALATUKA" in her back. now that you have read this message, she will come to your house on a full moon and steal your soul unless you follow these directions.

I don't think that he is a hypocrite as human beings we are multi-faceted and multi-faulted. He gives all sides of life; the good, the bad and the ugly. He is no different politician or minister. It's funny how we will hold a cat from the streets to a higher standard than a government official.
what the fuck are kids supposed to think when they hear this guy giving them this oh so positive message about the superiority of ancient African empires and not being hos and gangstas and then sees the same guy telling them the exact opposite. that being a gangsta is cool, killing people and doing drugs is a good thing. what a douchebox.
aright what the fuck...this nigger has got to be fuckin kidding. here he is telling kids to stay off the streets and stay in school but goes on and does songs like "quick to back down" where he blatantly threatens people and glorifies being a gangsta or in made you look with "grey goose and a whole lotta hydro" which glorifies drug use. fuckin asshole. i hate fucking douchebag rapper hypocrites like this guy. asshole.
i love this song we listened to this song everday before we took the msp it helped alot of us do great on the test
