Very glad to hear that Nas recently signed to Def Jam records and thereby ended the long-time feud with CEO Jay-Z (a good lesson for younger hot headed wannabe gangsta rappers!). His latest album – Hip Hop Is Dead – has stirred just as much controversy as the move. He is notorious for hating most people in the industry, and the latest album certainly ruffled a few feathers – the effect that it was indented to have.
Fantastic album by the Queens Bridge rapper with some top drawer songs, including a lengthy appearance from Jay-z on ‘Black Republican’.
