Nas Addresses Sharpton, Previews Video For First Single

by LYRICALTHOUGHT

SATURDAY MAY 31, 2008

Queens Emcee Nasir Jones recently held a private screening at the New York City Tribeca Grand Hotel, to preview the video for his first single "Be a N****r. In the video directed by Rick Cordero, Nas is featured in a black and white video standing in front of a mirror rapping while clips of flash through the mirror showing people of all culturs suffering from the toils of discrimination and racism.

When asked about the song as well as the video Cordero said,

"Nas offends no one, by offending everyone this video is not a publicity stunt. It was definitely an honor to work with him."

At the of the video Nas is seen standing in front of the mirror, questioning his self and what he has done in his time on earth. While still looking in the mirror he says, "You could have done something great Nasir Jones....you just a n***a."

After what seemed like a firestorm of criticism for the album title, "N****R", Nas finally decided to change it, but denied giving into the pressure and criticism that he received from many including several in the African American Community.

He also addressed the possibility of Sharpton and other African American leaders having an effect on the title change.

"Sharpton had no influence on me changing the title," he asserted. "Hip-hop has caught a lot of heat this last year from our so-called black leaders. We have a lot of enemies from these so-called leaders and they go to these corporations and extort the record labels.

They have no way of making money and they're mad we're making a lot of money off of sh*t we sell in the streets, there's no more outspoken or political rappers. It ain't far fetched on us, but the old generation frowns on us. The Bill Cosby's and Sharpton's they're scared that hip-hop n*gga's are on the way up and the so-called leaders play the tap dance roll because of that."

In other news…

  • Nas' Baby's Mother Tells Nas A...
  • Def Jam Reinforces Nas, Nas Sa...
  • Def Jam:" We're Backing Nas Al...

 

Moving away from the criticism Nas explained the reason for the original album title. Addressing those who said that the album was just a cheap ploy at selling records.

"I ain't Farrakhan and I ain't trying to be him I like pissing people off and stir stupid n*ggas. If you ain't putting your career on the line, it ain't safe no more, My pops told me, 'don't underestimate intelligent people. Dumb n*ggas will get it, too'!"

at the end of the day, nas bout his paper...any real dude would know that no album would ever be released with that title by a premier artist...just a stunt used to build up hype in order to boost sales...any publicity is good publicity

^^replying to nyut^^
nas is too mature and intelligent to have used it just as
a publicity stunt. if he would stoop so low then the theme of the album wouldn't follow the original title...but it does. nigga, the content is the same as it would have been if he hasn't changed the title...did u hear the 2 singles DS put up?? and i hope he does sell records cuz unlike too many artists out here he's really got SOMETHING to SAY...a message to get across that everybody needs to hear. Yea Nas gotta make money off of music b/c that's what he does...but i believe this was far from a publicity stunt. shit he's speakin out against our "so-called" black leaders in America so what you think?

Niggaz need to hop of Wayne dick for real... It don't make no damn sense... You and Lil wayne is two different dudez... propz is cool.. But STOP DICKRIDING.. DAT SHIT GETS OLD AND IRRITATING FAST...

But Nas is da last of da world of real MC's who talk bout real shit instead flauntin money and fuckin hoez (which aint a bad thing but i dont want to hear it on 30x's on a Album). I dont think itz a publicity stunt or any kind of stuff like dat... if it was.. he a smart dude, he obviously hit a nerve and people is listen to him and got dey attention... But da title aint got shit to do wit da comment (addressed to all the STUPID, SIMPLE MINDED dudez who think that just cuzz the name changed, the album is garbage... GET YO HEAD OUT YA ASSES)

I completely agree wit Nas on the fact that the Sharpton's and so callled "black leaders" like him are mad/envious of young out spoken dudes gettin money. Honestly why would Sharpton be mad at some like Nas?? If anything Nas is trying to educate the youth by stating facts about American History. It's like he's making up shit, it's history, look it up. Sharpton's mad b/c Nas reaches a far larger audience than Sharpton can ever reach.

Support Nas man, he's one of the few real niggas that's not too scraed to be smart/out spoken.

I respect NAS & JAY the most out of the hip hop community, however if he didnt change the title due to the pressure and criticism that he received than why did he change it? I really dont think he changed it out of his own free will. By the fuck al sharpton I hate that snake ass muhfuka

The article said he didn't change it b/c of the "pressure and criticism that he received from many including several in the African American Community." But the label probably couldn't put out an album titled that in this day and age. Nas prolly thought at first that he could, but obviously he couldn't. Also the album's original title was Nigger not Nigga. That might have a lot to do with it in my opinion. I mean Pac, NWA, ODB and them got away wit naming in Nigga also that was the 90s. In this day (when racism is such a sensitive topic) Nas can't get away wit that 90s shit.

But if you were gonna buy an album solely based on the title then DON'T BUY the fucking album. It's about the music, he can call it "Donuts and Blunts" for all I care, I would still cop that shit if the music was on point.

the album title is not the basis I use to buy an album homie, I wud styll cop the NAS album if it had no title or cover at all. My issue was the reason he changed the title in the past he seemed so motivated not to change it despite the critcism he received from everyone nah mean and he also said he had the support of La Reid... but its whatever man I just need the album fuk the politics

I feel the reason it was changed was because niggas like Al Sharpton and all them black leaders were telling the record execs that if they don't change it they would sue or some bullshit like that. It probably wasn't under his control. Then the record execs asked him what would be an alternative, and he just said fuck it call that bitch Nas, but I'm not changing none of the songs.

Well wezzy was right about one thing in that song misunderstood
Sharpton = Don King = 2 bit hustler
Like that rev. good love or whatever from the boondocks
Al Sharpton is a whore for free publicity Son as something dealing with race or black people pops up in the news here come his tired old ass tryin get his pic in the paper and claim responsibilty for some shit like with Imus he all at the man studio while he on air sayin he aint leavin till that man get fired knowing all the dude sponsors was already jumpin ship that way he can say he had somethin to do with it so he can sell more books
The sad truth is aint no such thing as black leaders nomore
The only leaders in America are Green with dead white men on them.
Cause thats all the week minded and the youth of America respects
and the strong minded are there own leaders tryin to get that green themselves

I meant "soon as" not "Son as"
And for the record I dont know Mr Nasir Jones personally but I can tell from his interviews and from the powerful messages in his music that he is to strong a man to let anyone besides the people who sign his checks influence his decisions in life wheather dealing with his art or anything else he's directly involved in So you know its just bullshit coming from an asswhole when sharpton tries to claim fame from it and to all you dickheads saying its a publicity stunt trully dont know Nas as an artist at all STUNTS JUST AINT HIM and Im usually the first to call shenanigans for things of this nature.But if the record execs say change or its shelved well it is what it is Cause he got to get that paper from them white people every payday cause as a man he knows them other white people gon want they paper every first of the month and if you cant feel that you are truly confused fuc the name the message will be the same as if the album was called NIGGER

Think about the impact the album could have for years to come... America ain ready for what Nas had planned but its coo.

Nas said "If you ain't putting your career on the line, it ain't safe no more, My pops told me, 'don't underestimate intelligent people. Dumb n*ggas will get it, too'!"

He did his part by puttin it out there. It'll have a great enough impact because of its content, not its title. The people who get the message from the album will see it. Dumb niggas will get it too.

I might not agree with this comment right here....But I would much rather see this that "Wayne is the best rapper alive"........Atleast NaS is one of the best.....Wayne ain't nobody yet.

Sharpton's full of shyt. These so called leaders of ours never find a reason to speak on something or do anything for the community unless they can get some sort of buzz around their names for it. Sharpton needs to leave hip hop artist the hell alone. Instead of going after/targeting "RAP ARTIST" who promote violence as a postive thing, he(Sharpton) targets Hip Hop artist who still have something to say, who teaches its listeners to think outside the box and be an individual. Hip Hop artist who speak on struggles that we all go through, well those of us that live life in the ghetto. These are the people Shartpton targets. Instead of invest is time into more important things like starting organizations or building buildings that would help get kids off the street and teach them to aim higher than a new pair of jordans and a fitted cap.

Until he cuts his shyt, fuck Sharpton.

I really think this is a defying time to be a black man in America, Hip Hop is being scrutinize more then ever, we have racial tension everywhere & last but not least The Race for the white house has a nigga in it …I don’t give a fud-uck if his father is from Africa, last I checked only Native American Belong here, all of us are from another continent including the Crackers. I love being Black y’all,…and I love how Polarizing it is when I black man decides to drop an album named ‘Nigger’. 1st of all, We all agree if this shit was in the 90’s Def Jam wouldn’t care. But in this day & age shit won’t fly with Wal-Mart or Target, hell we still lucky we still even have hip-hop. I mean the way Bill O’Reilly shits on us every night, I wouldn’t be surprised they day Rap music becomes illegal,..ha ha ha, can you I magine getin’ bagged by the coppers for a hip-hop CD?
As far as Al Shap & Jesse Jax goes, they make me sick, if you ask me I feel they are more 2 faced then ½ of these hip-hop artist. Why, and I stress again Why, do they feel the need to speak on my behalf or the behalf of the rest of the black community. Who the fuck elected them as my leaders? And Nas made a key point, “money”. We all know these cats want to be on TV every damn time, why else do you only hear from them when something bad happen?

Nas is street smart and the publicity generated by the title alone is worth millions.

Sharpton is a undercover cracker......I never seen a black man that tries so hard to keep his hair straighter than a white woman....if he was so proud of being black why doesn't he just keep a fro? Why does he always have to start bullshit. He's a racist asshole.....he's not even an asshole..he's a whole ass

I feel bad that still in thi sday in age people, na black people are still giving that word power. Its just a fucking word now. Yes people died behind that word and white people used it to be...well you know. But damn, I'm black and proud to be black but I'm tired of hearing black people say oh we have suffered long enough, how the hell have they suffered? I don't know about ya'll but I always had a roof over my head, cool a/c, cable, money, and any other luxury. Shit and wellfare has been around and available to all cultures so what the fuck have the new age black people suffered. I think that Nas shouldn't have changed his title. Hip Hop is like art, it's your on personal expression that you want people to hear. Fuck if they like it or not. That's his album. Thats like someone telling you that you can't name your child what you want to name your child. Your child is your creation that the world's!! As far as I'm concerned the album is NIGGER
