I think hip-hop could help rebuild America, once hip-hoppers own hip-hop... We are our own politicians, our own government, we have something to say. We're warriors. Soldiers.

More quotes by Nas
Much success to you, even if you wish me the opposite.
Nas
Rule No. 1 is you can't be fake. If you're fake, you become a gimmick and you're selling a gimmick a little gimmick is cool, this is entertainment. But when you base your stuff on mostly real stuff, you never run out of it because every day is a different adventure.
Nas
Calling Michelle 'Obama Barack's baby mama?' Tell me, is that acceptable? But the Obamas aren't the only targets. Fox's pattern of race-baiting and fear-mongering regularly focuses on black leaders, black institutions and ordinary black people.
Nas
The further I get, the further I want to go
Nas
Love the skinny model chicks but I prefer the thickness.
Nas
Man, me and Biggie were the biggest artists in New York. When he passed, I was so messed up. My attitude was messed up about him dying. There was an East-West thing back then, and I was in war mode.
Nas
Respect all fear none my pride is everything
Nas
No Ideas original - there is nothing new under the sun.
Nas
The reason I want to be alone, is I'm tired of all the things that went wrong that would've went right if I had did 'em on my own
Nas
I just enjoy life now. I just enjoy every morning I get to wake up.
Nas
Failure is not an option, and I always felt like I'm a man who doesn't have regrets, and I don't live with excuses. I can't take excuses.
Nas
To me, creatively challenging myself is my version of owning the Nets.
Nas
I like the way hip-hop is now. It's grown up enough so that it can get involved with politics if it feels like it.
Nas
Mind's in another world thinking how can we exist through the facts
Nas
There's not one person in the world that's not a living, walking contradiction.
Nas
I rap for listeners, blunt heads, fly ladies and prisoners
Nas
Africa has been going through so much for so many years it's time that it stands up the way other nations are standing up.
Nas
What you call a infinite brawl, eternal souls clashin War gets deep, some beef is everlastin
Nas
If I made an album just to sell you a story about how I'm the man, it really doesn't show any human side to me. It's good to talk about what's real and what's relevant.
Nas
When your so focused on what people say, how can your really be focused on the music? If you're concerned with what someone says, you aren't working on a real record. You're working on something that's just for now, to please people this very second... because you don't believe in yourself.
Nas
