Nas Changes Album Title!

So it looks like Esco went back on his word (again) and will no longer be going with the title Nigger for his upcoming LP. Gee, like we all didn’t see that coming. I know I thought it, I know eskay thought it. What about all this “I’m gonna fight it. I’m at a big enough status that I can drop this. Who cares if some stores ban it.” talk?

According to EW.com, a Def Jam representative has confirmed that Nas will no longer be naming his upcoming project Nigger. Instead, Nasir Jones will opt for a less controversial title: Nas. – HipHopDX

Both Nas (Nas) and G-Unit (Terminate on Sight) are dropping July 1st. Who are you copping?

  5. i wouldn’t buy either of those albums if you paid me to.

  6. im with you khal. i like the post you just made. agreed.

  7. Copping that NAS album without a doubt!!!

  8. weaaak.

  9. umm, I won’t get either album, lol
    But since I’m seriously done with Nas and his whole “I want to be profound and controversial!” attitude, G-Unit all the way.

  10. White rap fans hoping to purchase the album in-stores can now breathe easily. “I’ll take that NAS album please….”

  11. maybe he will call it NAS and have it stand for NIGGER ACTION SOUNDTRACK?!?!

    i’m reachin, i know…

  12. Nas is still one of my favorite emcees regardless… but idk about the decisions he makes sometimes. All I want is a dope album.

  13. exact if its dope I’m coppin…hopefully he wills till make soem good music, but yeah done with the “profound and controversial” crap.

  14. I definitely will be coppin that Nas.

  15. nas has been talking so much shit lately. if this album isnt illmatic hes finished. worst decision ever to not name his album nigger

  16. I’ll go out and copy Immortal Technique’s album again (once when it drops on June 24 and again on July 1). I’d cop Nas’s LP if he had the guts to be the artist he says he is.

    Tech’s career is what Nas’s might be if Nas had balls and a bigger vocabulary.

  17. ??..nas just did a concert at UCSB and said on stage “cop that n-word album”..he didn’t say nigger or nas..just n-word..

    hm..

  18. I meant “cop” Immortal Technique’s album not “copy.” Now I’ve gone and fucked up my post.

  19. i’d cop nas any day over g-unit, regardless of the title of the album. i’m pumped for the jay electronica/nas joint. nas needs to get with phonte though.

  20. i was thinking nasigger would be a good alternative, half gimmick / half real… the perfect product.

  21. It’s untitled as of now

  22. [...] Nas ändert doch den Namen seines ursprünglich als “N.I.G.G.E.R.” betitelten Albums [...]
