Nas's Nigger Still Hitting The Streets--In Mixtape Form

by JOKESTA

WEDNESDAY MAY 28, 2008

New York rapper Nas is still determined for his controversial entitled album to hit the streets--one way or another. According to Dj Green Lantern, the Queens bred MC will be releasing a mixtape bearing the scrapped album title.

"The Nigger Tape" is said to feature exclusive tracks, remixes and outtakes, including an unreleased verse from Nas’s recently released “Be A Nigger Too,” Black President,” a cut initially slated to appear on Green’s Barak Obama mixtape and “Legendary,” the theme song to a forthcoming Mike Tyson documentary.

A new version of “The Last Real Nigga Alive,” which originally appeared on God’s Son, is also expected to make the final cut. 

“I guess it shows you the power of Wal-Mart and Target,” Green tells Rhapsody.com regarding Nas’ title switch. “If that was the case, it’s definitely scary because it kind of fucks with your artistic vision. But Nas and DJ Green Lantern are coming out with a mixtape called The Nigger Tape. Can’t nobody hold that back.”

cheesuz.. you really sound like an idiot. Saying NaS backed down like a bitch. lol, THIS IS TO ALL YOU GUYS: he never planned to release an album with a name like that, he did it to get pub, and guess what he got? All he did was outsmart you into talking about his album. You talked about it so your helping give his album buzz.. guess what he wants??? lol nas will sell no matter what but i love how he can get people talking about his album just by telling you what the title will be then changing it.. what if ready to die was called string cheese? would that have made the songs on the album worse???

everybody does stuff for pub.. the whole 50 and kanye thing was for pub, and both of there albums sold because of it. I consider you dumb if you dont do anything to get heard now-a-days. Rappers have to do this stuff because there labels are fucking up and wont promote it like they should. All they want to promote is garbage ring-tone songs to make a quick buck

It's Cool And All But It By Far Wouldn't Have Tha Results It Woulda Had If It Was Released On An Album. At Least My Nigga NAS Can't Be Stopped Though. And Yet Again Makes U Think Twice About It Not Being Able To Be On A Mainstream Album. Either Way As I Been Sayin Since Day 1.

i hope everybody stating nas "backin down like a bitch" for not releasing his album with the title "nigger" are real niggas cuz if not ur talkin out ur ass. what am i sayin, if u are ur still talkin out ur ass. do u muthafuckas realize the types of comittments artists still owe to the record companies?? even if u don't do BIIIG numbers in sales u gotta do SOMETHIN b/c that's where the record company get's their return. now if a record company decides that ur album title may even pose a GREATER threat to record sales they could halt that shit immediately. now nas has got a long history in the game and the clout to go along with it, but it wasn't ANYWAY in HELL his album was gonna be entitle NIGGER and get put on shelves in the major record stores. little record stores in the hood maybe but that's about it. muthafuckas callin nas a sellout b/c he changed the name of his album to possibly get it released sometime SOON and let y'all lil ignorant ass niggas know whats REALLY good...these gotta be kids postin this dumb shit, real talk..

I think it may have to do with the difference between Nigga, and Nigger. N. W. A. had Niggaz4Life, AND you had to put it in a mirror to read it. O. D. B. had Nigga Please, and the Nigga was partially censored on the cover with like drawings of stars or something, 2pac had Strictly 4 My N. I. G. G. A. Z., printed vertically, instead of horizontally. Noone has blatantly put the word Nigger on their album cover. listening to "Field Marshall" by Prodigy PEACE

I can't help but feel like hes just forcing the title now....I was under the impression that the whole point of the title was that it represented a theme for his album, and now, by just throwing it into a mixtape, Nasir really is just using it as a publicity stunt, and THAT ain't hard to tell...payce....

dat's good he wants to keep his views and still release the material...
but i think mixtape form is the wrong way to go if it's going to be the same material as the album being that his brings in considerably less revenue off of an mixtape... maybe i misinterpeted the article....

Nas had to change the title of the album, if he wanted his vision to come out. The sad part is how much Def Jam has changed over the years. Russell, Rick and Lyor would have fought 4 their artists artistic right 2 express themselves. Def Jam is a pop label plain and simple. Who's their biggest acts: Kanye West, Rihanna and Neyo. I feel bad for Nas. He left Columbia, and went into an worse situation. But u know the album is gonna be historic though.

The nigga is a sellout for money..Fuck the money he'd lose by coming out with the album..Sell that shit in Mom and Pop's or send out a street team is if it's about the message...But it's not it's about money and trying not to burn them white bridges..Nas is in the crackaz back pocket just like the rest of them niggaz..Artist don't change their art for critics..If it wasn't about money then he'd release it point blank period..Nas is just another nigga using our struggles for personal gain..Just like after "Hip Hop is Dead" dropped he'll go hide with his wifey and spend the money he's gained off real nigga struggles..Don't just talk about it be about it or shut the fuck up..That's to any rapper, entertainer, street corner politician or whomever else..Niggaz talk way too much with little or no action..Where is this nigga when we really need him? i.e. Katrina, Sean Bell, Jena 6, or any other case involving the mistreatment of our people..That nigga is harder to find than Waldo during those times..I know he tried to pay for Sean Bell's funeral..After he know that it had been taken care of why wasn't he the one to put up the money for his kids education/trust fund?

i will try to help you understand the music industry.. artists do not release albums, they release mixtapes. Record companies release albums. Def Jam would not release an album called NIGGER because no store will carry an album called nigger. Why would a record company waste money promoting something that they know will not sell because no store will carry it? and its not like he changed the "art". The songs will remain the same.. he changed the title.. what if romeo and juliet was entitled corn and beats? Teachers would still force kids to read it like it was the greatest shit ever written.. please remember this is just a title, nothing more, nothing less. Nas himself can hook up with a DJ and put out a mixtape with what ever title he wants, and thats what hes doing. I Dont understand all these nas selling out posts when the situation was out of his hands.. if the stores say they wont carry your album becuase of a title.. then change the title.. thats it.. its done.. if you dont, you look like the ignorant fool who wasted time and money on an album that nobody will hear..

How come we dont know exactly why he changed the title

A month ago he said it was gon be Nigger no matter what.

And what happened to da shit about L.a. Reid backin him 100 percent?

So if Nas wanted that title and L.a. Reid said he was behind Nas all the way then how the fuck did we get here!

You can call a mixtape any fuckin thing u want! Middle america dont pay attention to mixtapes anyway!

And since when does Nas put out whole mixtapes?

What happened to the bold statement dat Nas was gonna make with this album title?

A mixtape dont have the same power as a studio album!

Nas didnt change his mind...somebody changed it for him!

Of course Walmart aint gonna sell it!

Of course the labels might lose money!

Dont chu think Nas knew all dis shit before he came up wit dat title?

Of course he did! Thats why it was controversial!

The whole point of naming the album Nigger was to show that he doesnt care about the business side of the game!

I repeat Nas knew dat Walmart wouldnt carry an album called Nigger!

The whole point of doin it was to show dat he didnt give a fuck!

I cant believe how stupid people really are!

and he didnt give a fuck.. damn he tried, and he was so close to gettin it, but what you gotta understand is that Nas dont have his own record label, his down wit def jam or what not, they on the other hand do give a fuck, its more their money than it is of Nas, top 5 richest artists... Jay-Z, 50 Cent, Diddy, Dr.Dre, Eminem... they all own their own label, meaning they can do what ever the fuck they like, they can call a album Bin Laden for president and put it out! wal mart nor any other big stores will sell it.. but they can do it wit out no one stopping them... Nas does not have that power!

anyways let the "Nigger" album be called "Cracker" coz at the end of the day its just a TITLE which is what Nas wanted ya'all to see, regardless what the album is called the tracklisting and everything else is gonna be the same, same album just a different name (same shit different toilet)!

in my opinion he shoulda renamed it to NiggSTAR, coz i think all the black folks that were slaves are stars, they were clever! slavery stopped but we still had "NiggSTARs" Martin Luther King and Malcolm X just to name a couple, coz racism still exists, but why? whys it still exist?

its not just the media, its every individual!

Fuck dat shit chu talkin bout Fo t Kalibur!

U really dont know as much as u think u do Goodbrotha!

Nas was well aware of all the backlash and all the difficulty he was gonna have to deal with before he announced dat his new album would be called Nigger!

In fact, he knew that there would be a very small chance of him actually releasing an Album called Nigger and so did I or any other Muthafucka wit half a brain (I guess u only got a quarter)for dat matter!

Nas knew that if worse came to worse he would change the fuckin title and still have alot buzz built up for his new album!

Props to Nas! His marketing strategy is impeccable!

Its a shame that marketing strategies are more important than good music but at least Nas understands dat shit now!

He pulled it off well!

Can't believe the hate Nas gettin'... A lot of y'all some two faced batman villian lookin' niggaz. First muhfuckaz was saying he was dumb for naming the album Nigger, then you got all hyped about it and now that the name has been changed, y'all sayin' its a bitch move? Double standards are a mothafucka...

Other than that, can't wait for the tape... :D

Not knockin the next man hustle but don't target and walmart sell chappelle's show dvds as well as south park and other shit like that. Its fucked up how its allowed to be said and put out there when its derogatory or funny but when someone is trying to teach and(my thoughts about the album) try to get you to stop saying such a hateful word they wanna fucking protest and not sell it. What a fucked up system we live in. Tell you one thing they can't stop the mixtape. Unless the Dj drama that nigga.

Trust me.....if Southpark had a Dvd called "Nigger" Walmart would not carry it!

it wont be messed up if the mixtape outsells the album. look at it this way the lable aint going to get a dime off that mixtape. so Nasir will end up laughin all the way to the bank.

Nas is that Nigga, fuck what you heard! I’m glad he found away to deliver us that title one way or another. The rec exects weren’t going to release no album titled ‘Nigger’, c’mon y’all,..are even surprised? This is why the Nas is album is key, that alone proves that Nigger is still a polarizing word. The Album will still cover racial inequality & injustice, like I said, the content is what matters. But the net kept buzin,…”why did he change the title?” or “why not put it out him self?” …listen don’t be a fuck boy b, Nas has bosses too, this wasn’t his choice. Just like Green Lat said Wal-mart & Target got power kid. Def Jam ain’t confortable with such a title, well Enter the Mix tape game. Now to all you cock suckaz sayin Nas has be exploiting Black people, needs a back hand straight up. Last I checked the same shit we go though (as blacks or minorities), he goes through them too. He’s affected by injustice, so why not speak on it since he has a platform & a fallowing. I mean it’s not like Justine Timberlake is saying anything about it,…so as a black man, nas has 100% right to comment on this Nigger shit.
Oh what he wasn’t down in Jena, LA or you didn’t hear from him
