NAS LOSES A SONG – AN N-WORD SONG!This was sent to me from some of my elite intel. Remember Nas’ “Be A N****r” too? Yeah, the one with the video. Well, that record has been dumped from the album that has no name. It didn't make the album because Nas and his people couldn't get the sample in the beat cleared. Isn’t that something? But it gets even deeper from what I understand. I don’t know that you all know, but the hook of the song is actually borrowed from a jingle of soft drink soda “Dr. Pepper.” Yea, the original hook said, “I’m a Pepper, He’s a Pepper…wouldn’t you like to be a Pepper too.” Well, Nas essentially replaced “Pepper” with “N****r” and that was a “no-go” for the people over at Dr. Pepper. They refused to let Nas use the hook melody, because of the N-Word in the music. At any rate, I heard the album is really impressive. I don’t think that one song is going to affect that anyway.
NYOIL GOES IN ON NAS ABOUT “THE N-WORD”
There is one person (or more) that is probably happy that Nas’ N-Word song got cut. A lot of people outside of the New York area might not have heard of NYOIL, but he is a very dope MC that has a conscious angle. He’s outspoken and lyrically advocated certain rappers to get “lynched” for selling out. Check the features section for the interview with him.
“I don’t believe that he is going to adequately handle this issue. This is an issue, when you get to talking about certain things…for example, if I start talking thug s**t right, the expectation is that I better be prepared to live that thug s**t because when you talk that thug s**t and you go to different towns muthaf**ers is gonna test your metal. If I was talking that pimping hoe s**t, I better be prepared to do what a pimping hoe do. So if you’re trying to be this conscious dude, you gone speak on conscious issues not just lyrically but orally and be able to articulate your position. If you can’t articulate that position, you don’t got no business building on that s**t. Leave it alone, it ain’t for you.”
MY BAD!
My bad…shout out to all the “folk” I missed yesterday. King High Pimpn – shout out to the big homey. Also shout out to Venus and Serena! I see what y'all doing at Wimbleton!
"I let you win the last one so give me this one."
"OK, fine, but I am getting that Puma endorsement this time."
"Deal!"
