I definitely have plans to do more collaboration albums in the future. I'm a big fan of Common. I'm a big fan of Scarface I'm a big fan of so many people, from Jeezy to... well, there are a lot of people's music that I respect.

I think hip hop allows us to talk about everything, and Africa is what I choose to talk about now. If people are not talking about Africa, that's them, that's cool, there's nothing wrong with that. But this is who I am, this is what I have to say, this is what I have to offer.
Nas
The flaws, the mistakes I make - that's the real me.

I'm inspired by people like Nelson Mandela. Can you imagine - you know how racist America was back then - imagine how racism was in South Africa when he had to stand up and say what he had to say. That's bravery beyond comprehension.
Nas
I don't respect killers, I respect O.G. knowledge, Codes of the streets got new rules, but no guidance. Lessons, detrimental to a young disciple Folks, take care of your brothers, niggas do as I do. Keep your enemies close, where they can see you. It's not your enemy who get you, it's always your own people.
Nas
I talk about life, and I make universal music with an American style - and that's what I do.
Nas
What you call a infinite brawl, eternal souls clashin War gets deep, some beef is everlastin
Nas
There's not one person in the world that's not a living, walking contradiction.
Nas
The whole thing is, do as much as you can, when you possibly can, and don't stress.
Nas
Hip-hop is making a lot of noise. It should get some more spotlight.
Nas
I know i can, be what i wanna be, if i work hard at it, I'll be where i wanna be
Nas
I've met a lot of people and happened to inspire a lot of people who I'm in conversation with about business. It's just how things are going for me and it's great, but music is always going to be number one for me.
