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.
Nas
Don't ever give up on yourself. Keep pushing because the change of guards is what life's all about.
Nas
Every time I get in the studio, I feel like I wanna have some fun. My fun is not doing the easy work. My fun is doing what's me.
Nas
I sip the Dom P watching Gandhi til I'm charged - writing in my book of rhymes, all the words past the margin
Nas
I expect the hip-hop audience to be avant garde. I want them to be where I'm at or beyond where I'm at.
Nas
Rule No. 1 is you can't be fake. If you're fake, you become a gimmick and you're selling a gimmick a little gimmick is cool, this is entertainment. But when you base your stuff on mostly real stuff, you never run out of it because every day is a different adventure.
Nas
Use your own intuition. You are tomorrow.
Nas
Calling Michelle 'Obama Barack's baby mama?' Tell me, is that acceptable? But the Obamas aren't the only targets. Fox's pattern of race-baiting and fear-mongering regularly focuses on black leaders, black institutions and ordinary black people.
Nas
But uhh, a thug changes, and love changes and best friends become strangers, word up
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 have no tattoos that I regret - I have had some that I have had changed according to how my life was.
Nas
Much success to you, even if you wish me the opposite.
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
No Ideas original - there is nothing new under the sun.
Nas
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
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
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
Anybody I'm dating, I don't want them to talk about my music. I don't talk about my music to them.
Nas
Hip-hop is making a lot of noise. It should get some more spotlight.
Nas
You're supposed to be who you are. You're supposed to make music that is true to you.
