More quotes by Nas
I think it's harder to make a classic now, not because of what people say, but because artists now are so concerned with what people say.
Nas
I'm sure we're gonna meet some bumps in the road, but if it's meant to be it will happen.
Nas
The further I get, the further I want to go
Nas
I love the art world, I love art galleries, I love what it means - I love art.
Nas
I'm out for presidents to represent me (Say what?) I'm out for dead presidents to represent me.
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
You're supposed to be who you are. You're supposed to make music that is true to you.
Nas
You are who you associate with. Look around at your five closest friends and that's who you are. If you don't want to be that person, you know what you gotta do.
Nas
I used to carry a notebook to the studio. I don't do that no more 'cause I don't have the time to write anywhere but right there in the studio on the spot. So when you hear my stuff, know that I wrote it in the studio.
Nas
Hip-hop is making a lot of noise. It should get some more spotlight.
Nas
You can't please everybody. You['d] be crazy if you're trying to. So take some time out to do some things for yourself.
Nas
My earliest memories of rap music was mixed with my earliest memories of reggae music. They were big sounds around the way, heavy bass lines, strong messages, definitely.
Nas
The whole thing is, do as much as you can, when you possibly can, and don't stress.
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
People afraid of criticism but I always put myself in a sacrificial position,they been know I ain't just rappin for fame
Nas
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
No Ideas original - there is nothing new under the sun.
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
Use your own intuition. You are tomorrow.
Nas
Some seek fame cause they need validation, Some say hating is confused admiration.
