More quotes by 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
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
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
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
No matter where you're from - you can be Native American, Italian, Jewish, Latino, African-American - whatever you are, we're all distant relatives.

In hip hop no one cares. No one stands up for it and it's a mess. We need order so we can all follow the tradition of where we came from. We need to keep referring to the pioneers.
Nas
New York city is full of great spaces. The best spaces of the world are here. This is the new Europe, where the settlers came and busted out their ideas and put it down so there's nothing but great space in this great city.
Nas
Hip-hop is bigger than the South, hip-hop is bigger than New York.
Nas
But uhh, a thug changes, and love changes and best friends become strangers, word up
Nas
Unfortunately, man, a lot of places in America have to deal with unnecessary violence. Somebody like me who knows it firsthand and could relate... I had a best friend killed, plenty other friends killed. I been through it. I seen it.
Nas
We're all Africans, everyone - black, white, yellow.
Nas
Sunlight and seeing something that was a thought become a thing and materialize - that makes me come alive.
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
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
Play it cool, that's the old school rule man.
Nas
Working with great people makes you great you learn a lot and it also gives you the experience and confidence to move on with your own career.
Nas
Anybody can be a rapper, but not anybody can be a classical artist.
Nas
I sip the Dom P watching Gandhi til I'm charged - writing in my book of rhymes, all the words past the margin

Hip-hop is such an amazing thing that kids still want to do it. They're not saying, Ugh, that's the old people's music. No, they're younger than they've ever been that want to get into hip-hop music.
