This is bad.

His message, whatever it may be, is completely nullified by that awful hook.

Nas' "message songs" are so contradictory and convoluted that it generally renders them unlistenable, even if the beats and technical aspects of emceeing are top-notch.

I am not looking forward to this album or the "dialogue" it produces.

Not that bad. Not super dope or anything, but not horrible.

Beat is better than what Nas usually picks.

Sounds like a throw away beat from one of Beanie Sigel's first two albums.

Song is kinda stupid. The second verse is ok. Worst hook ever. "SHOCKING" faggotry.

I think Nas is going to do the right thing with this... same way he got people to think about the state of hip hop, he will get people thinking about the state of racism today

I would prefer the whole world stop saying 'nigga/nigger', but since that kind of mind-shift will probably never happen, the next best thing is making all you non-African people "niggers too" :ironmike: so the word has no power left... in theory, this is smart. in practice? not so much, but damned if we do, damned if we don't.

this is one of the only new songs in rap that i will not censor myself, and sing 'wont you like to be a nigger too?!' along like Nas does :cookiecookie:

Does this make it okay for me to say

SHUT UP YOU BRAINLESS IDIOTIC CANADIAN FUCKING NIGGER?

DOES IT? HUH NAS?! IS THAT WHAT YOU FUCKING WANT?!

YOU WANT ME TO CALL MINDBENDER A NIGGER?!

That is what is going to happen, and it is fucking dumb. More people like HustleCrowe and Lloyd are going to think its cool to use the word, in any context, when its not.
