More quotes by 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
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
I wanted to say what wasn't being said. I wanted to give people a real story. I wanted people to know people like me exist in the world.
Nas
We're all Africans, everyone - black, white, yellow.
Nas
My first record - it was 1991. I was 16 years old. My first album came out when I was 20. So, I've been here that long and I still have the passion to do it.
Nas
Some people say I'm conscious, some say I'm a gangsta rapper - it's just me doing me. I'm stomping in my own lane. I'm doing what I do.
Nas
People afraid of criticism but I always put myself in a sacrificial position,they been know I ain't just rappin for fame

The whole thing is, do as much as you can, when you possibly can, and don't stress.
Nas

Nas
I've learned not to be surprised by what people do no more.

I talk about life, and I make universal music with an American style - and that's what I do.
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.
Nas
Never stop. Never settle. I believe in this message.
Nas
Sunlight and seeing something that was a thought become a thing and materialize - that makes me come alive.
Nas
Don't ever give up on yourself. Keep pushing because the change of guards is what life's all about.
Nas
I never brag, how real i keep it, cause thats the best secret.
Nas
If you really believe in yourself and your music that much, you're gonna do your thing, regardless what people say.
Nas
Vocabulary spills I'm ill.
Nas
There's not one person in the world that's not a living, walking contradiction.
