More quotes by 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.

The Internet made the world smaller, so it's easier for people to hear your music. You don't necessarily need a radio record.
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
America is a melting pot for all different groups of people, historically. And it's rare that the story of all of these people will be told in the history books. So I always felt I had to find out my history for myself and research my roots.
Nas
If you really believe in yourself and your music that much, you're gonna do your thing, regardless what people say.
Nas
I have no tattoos that I regret - I have had some that I have had changed according to how my life was.

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
I love the art world, I love art galleries, I love what it means - I love art.
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.

I guess entertainment means blatantly lyin'
