At this point, I think Nas is just trying to go for shock value. His "Hip Hop is dead" album didn't do too well and now he has to entitle his next album Nigger?

Also, he's trying to be political and racy, but we all know that fucker doesn't read newspapers or thick magazines.
Nas does not need to pull off the Kanye look...he's probably one of the top 10 lyricists of all time. And he's not trying to
become
political and racy, he's been political and racy since Illimatic. This guy pre-dates almost everyone in the rap game still around. Plus, Hip Hop is Dead hit #1 on the Billboard, is critically acclaimed, and has sold over a million copies. How did it not succeed?
