These Idiots Don't Belong In My Village!

WHO SAYS NAS' NEW CD WON'T BE NAMED AFTER THE N-WORD?: Rapper has total support of label prez LA Reid.

Apparently Fox news got it all wrong when they reported that the powers that be at Def Jam said the label was not releasing Nas' new project named after the N-word.

Def Jam head, LA Reid, told MTV that he has no problem with the project whatsoever. As far as he's concerned, Nas can do no wrong.

"We support everything our artists do, everything! (L.A. sounds real stupid, that's why these artists are in the state they're in now)" he added. "We stand firmly behind and beside our artists with pride and with pleasure. Anything Nas wants to do, I completely stand beside him. Nas is prolific, he's prophetic, he's a genius, an amazing artist of respect. So, while I'm not sure exactly all that [the title] entails (uhhh, don't you think you ought to find out, Mr. "head of Def Jam?) I know it's smart, so I stand behind him. That's real."

OK, so you may be wondering just why is Nas doing this. The MC says his intent is to take the sting out of the N-word (PLEASE TELL ME...HOW IS THIS GOING TO TAKE THE STING OUT????? THIS IS AN EXCUSE TO SAY THE N***A OR N***ER WORD! WE'RE NOT STUPID! Well MOST of us aren't)

"We're taking power from the word," he told MTV. "No disrespect to none of them who were part of the civil rights movement, but some ... in the streets don't know who (civil rights activist) Medgar Evers was ... they know who Nas is (you fool! so why don't you rap about our predecessors and educate those who are in the streets?!)," the rapper said, referring to the civil rights leader slain in the 1960s.

He also had a message to the "older people" who don't know who Nas is and what a street disciple is.

"Stay outta this (expletive) conversation. (OH NO HE DIDN'T-REMEMBER THIS IS DIRECTED TO "OLDER PEOPLE" WHO DON'T KNOW WHO NAS IS?!) We'll talk to you when we're ready. Right now, we're on a whole new movement (MOVEMENT?! I didn't hear that he was in Jena 6, nor at the Judiciary Committee hearing w/John Conyers, Keith Ellison, Maxine Waters, Al Sharpton etc, is he kidding me?!). We're taking power from that word (hmmm, I'm curious, HOW WOULD U KNOW IF POWER WAS TAKEN FROM THAT WORD?! SMH)."

Finally, not only is the album apparently still in the pipeline for a Dec 11 release, but the title has now been changed from "Nigga" to "Nigger (whew! that was close, they're idiots!)."
****
This whipper-snapper has lost his ever-living-loving-lasting mind!
And the fact that L.A. Reid is behind Nas-who blatantly disrespected older people- and gives carte blanche to his artists to do whatever,
sounds pathetic.
Oh, I get it...the bible says there's nothing new under the sun,
this is a publicity stunt in order to promote the sales of his album, which
is due out Dec 11th~
A blind man can see thru this.
I call for a boycott of his album.
Ignorance, is ignorance.

Please know...threats of hell and bible scriptures are futile-look at your church if you don't believe me! Get your 'body of christ' in order and then come talk to me.

Yours in Reason, Bria :)
