Nas's Nigger Pushed Back

by Jokesta on February 5th, 2008

http://media.defsounds.com/uploads/assets/1321/1333/6267/asset.jpg Will Nas's controversial album "Nigger" see the light of day this month?..Not likely says an inside source.

Initially, the album was scheduled to hit stores in late February with it's lead single debuting in January.

According to the latest word, the controversial album which has sparked numerous rumors since it was announced has been pushed back indefinitely.

"Nigger" is also a no-show on Def Jam's first quarter release schedule which shows Rick Ross's Thrilla (March 11th), Razah's sefl titled album (March 18th), and Rocko's Self Made LP (March 18th) as the only releases in the forthcoming months.

In a recent interview with XXL, when asked about the possibility of his album getting pushed back, Nas said that if it were to happen, it would be his decision.

"People gotta give me more credit than that. That’s not fair, if I push my shit back, to blame it on somebody. This is me you’re talking about.

This is not somebody that just signed yesterday. This is somebody that’s been in the game a long time, put out a lot of albums. I know what I’m doing.

So when I push my shit back, deal with it."

Method man second album got pushed back for a year and a half. After record stores were already reserving copies. He said that he wasnt happy with it until it was finished. When it finally dropped it was worth it.
Cant blame a nigga for wanting to tighten up his album. Especially not a nigga like nas. Plus with the huge strain on the record industry right now he could be waiting for a more artist-friendly month like may.

I’m fine with it being pushed back. We got it 4 cheap has to have time to bump. SO its cool. Wait be patient, let an artist create. Nas has not disappointed in almost a decade. Relax…

I could care less if it’s pushed back, if the album is worth it, then I don’t mind waiting longer to get it, just make it a banger when it does come out.

dont mind the pushback on the release date. the anticipation is so high right now you dont want to ruin a possible classic just to get it out in time. dont think it will be regardless, just dont feel the guy that much.

kinda ironic how a word so allegedly detramental to the face of a race, is now being glorified by a member of that same and using it to get paid… next time you hear a white dude poppin’ off droppin’ the n-bomb, send a thank you card to your man NAS.
