More quotes by Nas
I push my own limits every day, every moment - in the studio, on the stage and beyond so it's truly a genuine fit.
Nas
I'm a storyteller and the Bible is a bunch of stories about life and things that took place here on planet earth. It's a great example to use and a great reason to be happy about being a storyteller because the lessons of the land are always in stories.
Nas
I don't meditate. Silence is golden though.
Nas
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 don't know who I will collaborate with, but there's a great chance of something happening.
Nas
My record company had to beg me to stop filmin' music videos in the projects. No matter what the song was about, I had 'em out there.
Nas
We're all Africans, everyone - black, white, yellow.
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
I've gone through too much, from beefs to divorce to my mom passing which I always expressed in my music, so there's not album that sticks out as more important than the other to me.
Nas
I had a pretty public divorce. They're not easy - divorces - and it took me a long time to really get through.
Nas
Me and hip-hop have a relationship that has nothing to do with no other rapper, no matter where you from or nothing. Every n*gga got his own personal relationship with hip-hop and this is mine.
Nas
There's really nothing better than music to bring people together and to have amazing music being not just created inside walls but then decimating and activating is going to be special.
Nas
Whose world is this? The world is yours.
Nas
Mind's in another world thinking how can we exist through the facts
Nas
Life is short is what some niggaz said not if you measure life - by how one lives and what he did.
Nas
I've learned not to be surprised by what people do no more.
Nas
I want to sound like an instrument. I want my voice and my words to marry the beat. I go with the rhythm of it and the words start to come to my mind and those words could be based on things that's been on my mind for the past year, the past month, the past week, whatever I write it.
Nas
Just sitting in silence is one of the best things a man can do.
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
People afraid of criticism but I always put myself in a sacrificial position,they been know I ain't just rappin for fame
Nas
Dogs live longer than rappers.
