"Nas - Be A Nigger Too" (Video)

The Video For Nas' New Single - Be A Nigger Too, Has Premièred, All 8 Minutes Of It.

I said it when I featured this track a while back & I will say it again, this dude can back up his album titles with feeling & substance, so why did he bow under pressure & change the name of the record?


Nas - Be A Nigger Too

Be a Nigger Too is an extremely race related track, it's lyrics are hard hitting & brilliant, who else could use the phrase 'Chink-Nigger' & pull it off. I salute a man that can use his intellect to put a message across & doesn't give a damn what people say. A man that can fill Hip-Hop records with solidarity is some sort of Genius in my eyes.

The video for the track is on-point, it really drives home the message of the song, it is artistic without feeling distant, a proper triumph for Nas in my opinion.

I respect NaS greatly for the statement he's trying to make. Words are just words. They only mean what we want them to mean. And NaS is basically saying no one is different, and we are all the same.

Signed,
That Cracker Nigger

Big ups to Nas. This track is one of his best yet. I thought he fell off with Hip Hop is Dead, but it seems as if he just took an album off to work up to this masterpiece. I've heard everything that's been leaked from this album, and I've got to say it's probably the best music out right now, and I'm taking everything into account (Tha Carter 3, Definition of Real, etc.). As a white male maybe I shouldn't care for this music, but I can't help but listen to every word that comes out this man. As the for the album title, he had to change it. I know Nas probably hates himself for it, but if he's going to release this album he's going to have to change it, which is redundant since we've released a book with that very title Nigger. I suggest he calls it "The N-Word". There's alot less meaning, but Nas has been reported saying his fans will know the true name of his album. Nasir Jones for Life!
