More quotes by Nas
The flaws, the mistakes I make - that's the real me.
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
Respect all fear none my pride is everything
Nas
I'm not talking about Russia in my music. I've never been to Russia. I'm not talking about Africa, Switzerland, China. I'm talking about me being American and growing up in a crazy world and helping to reflect all different sides of life.
Nas
If the truth is told, the youth can grow.
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
Sunlight and seeing something that was a thought become a thing and materialize - that makes me come alive.
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
There's always going to be space for battle in hip hop. For competition. It's just an inseparable part of the game.
Nas
Always observe, watch, and talk to older people.
Nas
I fell in love with words and I think that made my mom smile. I think that was cool for her.
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
Just sitting in silence is one of the best things a man can do.
Nas
Just do as much as you can.
Nas
If you really believe in yourself and your music that much, you're gonna do your thing, regardless what people say.
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 talk about Africa and its meaning, being the birthplace of man and all that great history that's been erased and even hidden. I think it's my duty to be proud and to bring about the conversation that allows us to talk about the great history of my people.
Nas
I'm a reader, so when I go to bookstores I need (stuff) that's going to help me. There a big emptiness there and I want to help fill that through song.
Nas
I love the art world, I love art galleries, I love what it means - I love art.
Nas
Don't speak to fools, they scorn the wisdom of your words.
Nas
