More quotes by 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
For my hustlers, here's some motivation: He who has begun is half done.
Nas
Hip-hop is really standoffish. It's really competitive and it's really about who's number one all the time. Sometimes it gets out of hand.
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
You a slave to a page in my rhyme book.
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 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
All I need is one mic One beat, one stage One ni%$a frontin' my face on the front page Only if I had one gun, one girl and one crib One god to show me how to do things his son did.
Nas
I had a pretty public divorce. They're not easy - divorces - and it took me a long time to really get through.
Nas
The flaws, the mistakes I make - that's the real me.
Nas
I don't respect killers, I respect O.G. knowledge, Codes of the streets got new rules, but no guidance. Lessons, detrimental to a young disciple Folks, take care of your brothers, niggas do as I do. Keep your enemies close, where they can see you. It's not your enemy who get you, it's always your own people.
Nas
Hip-Hop is Dead cause America is dead culturally.
Nas
Read more learn more, change the globe
Nas
I've been lucky enough to reach a place where I can speak what's in my heart, and people know that it comes from a real place I don't have to worry about doing what someone's not doing - I can do me.
Nas
The whole thing is, do as much as you can, when you possibly can, and don't stress.
Nas
Used to ride with him to Brooklyn, Lewis and Halsey, co chocolate thai, vernon style and burn it down
Nas
If I made an album just to sell you a story about how I'm the man, it really doesn't show any human side to me. It's good to talk about what's real and what's relevant.
Nas
Through the lights cameras and action, glamour glitters and gold I unfold the scroll, plant seeds to stampede the globe.
Nas
I talk about life, and I make universal music with an American style - and that's what I do.
Nas
I have no tattoos that I regret - I have had some that I have had changed according to how my life was.
Nas
