Peace! I'm salty because I posted Nas' album cover on my Myspace page today and the next thing I know, the photo has a "violated regulations" across it. Hmm. The Nigger album should be a dope piece of work. I'm rarely disappointed with Nas. I decided to post several videos of other opinions, in regards to the album. I'm down for it. I can dig it... and Im not sure if what I read over the internet was the correct tracklisting, but if it was, it seems dope. I think NIgger will be an album that will touch various topics and hopefully we can all learn from it. If it drops, I'm sure that it would be the best album of 2008. I got five on it. :0)
I don't think it's an album about him being a Nigger but an evaluation of the word Nigger. Besides, its about time that we discuss topics that have been avoided for centuries. If he would have made an album called, "Trap or Die" that would have been worse- to me. Why do people trip over power moves? Anyway, I wanna know what you think. Peace.
SIDENOTE: According to Wikipedia, the album's title has received support from:

I think it's important to pay attention to the jewels. I think he's gonna drop jewels on this one. It kind of reminds me of the late 80's or early 90's, when people said things that they believed in. Public Enemy... was the shit. I think it's time to bring back the missing discussion that has been abandoned in black music. Nobody else (mainstream) is going there. Talk to me people. :0)
