More quotes by Nas
I had a pretty public divorce. They're not easy - divorces - and it took me a long time to really get through.
Nas
I rap for listeners, blunt heads, fly ladies and prisoners
Nas
Some people work hard to be something that they're not, and I don't work at all, I'm just me. And that can bother anybody I'm not working nearly as hard as the other guys, and they don't like it.
Nas
Just sitting in silence is one of the best things a man can do.
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
There's always going to be space for battle in hip hop. For competition. It's just an inseparable part of the game.
Nas
People have stopped battling in hip hop, in the primitive sense, and the focus of the competitive element has shifted to the music. It's less about bragging and more about being the best lyrically and poetically.
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
When you're a teenager, you want to meet a lot of girls - you want to get the most girls. You don't know anything about respect you don't know anything about being faithful and loyal to your girlfriend.
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
Today, with the media, the internet, things get out there about anybody, anytime, so there's nothing wrong about talking about your life, because someone else is going to talk about it and mess it up.
Nas
The whole thing is, do as much as you can, when you possibly can, and don't stress.
Nas
If you really believe in yourself and your music that much, you're gonna do your thing, regardless what people say.
Nas
Use your own intuition. You are tomorrow.
Nas
I didn't really do many business ventures throughout my career because I would have an idea and then before I'd have a chance to make something of it, I'd see someone else do it. I just liked to watch my fellow artists become entrepreneurs and be people who can inspire the next generation. I did that more with my songs.
Nas
Sunlight and seeing something that was a thought become a thing and materialize - that makes me come alive.
Nas
I never see the whips niggas be claimin' they drivin, I guess 'entertainment' means blatantly lyin'.
Nas
Don't ever give up on yourself. Keep pushing because the change of guards is what life's all about.
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
Dogs live longer than rappers.
