"hip hop ain't died cuz of the south, that's retarded"-Nas

"hip hop ain't died cuz of the south, that's retarded"-

did nas say that? ^ if so he is retarded....AINT he?

he explains it very thoroughly throughout the album - the music speaks for itself

and again the hater's lose, cuz the album's the truth.

(and i'm definitely copping it the day it comes out too)

you mean hes a self righteous bastard with a chip on his shoulder

I'm not talking about the man, i'm talkin about the music; whatever personal grudge u have against him that's u homie

but Nas is Top 5 regardless, that's undeniable

nas is washed up and full of excuses. he runs his jibs like there is no tomorrow. i'll be buying hiphop is dead, and if it's wack im gonna throw it in the trashcan

man! people talk a lot of shit this days what is real sad they don't know what da fuck they talking about i just sit back and watch clowns do the show

im tired of u clowns talking about how the state of hip hop is bad and then when good shit comes out yall are quick to critisize it

this is y you all will lose in life cause u need to get off Wu tang's dick and realize there is other good music out there

AllHipHop.com: That being said, how do you bring it back?

Nas: You dont. F**k Hip-Hop.

I think its a contradiction to say "Fuck Hip-Hop" and then drop a hip-hop album. If its dead, then fuck it, leave it alone.

he's reminiscing about how music was throughout the album - it's all about how rappers today are JUST about money and don't know shit about the history of hip hop at all and the old school feeling........................................... .................................................. ...............................................

Rappers were always about money. Any artist who released a cd sure as hell expects it to make him dough. They can't spend all day in a studio for months on end and expect not to make money. If they did then they would all be homeless.
