More quotes by Nas
I've gone through too much, from beefs to divorce to my mom passing which I always expressed in my music, so there's not album that sticks out as more important than the other to me.
Nas
No Ideas original - there is nothing new under the sun.
Nas
But uhh, a thug changes, and love changes and best friends become strangers, word up
Nas
Man, me and Biggie were the biggest artists in New York. When he passed, I was so messed up. My attitude was messed up about him dying. There was an East-West thing back then, and I was in war mode.
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.
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 want to sound like an instrument. I want my voice and my words to marry the beat. I go with the rhythm of it and the words start to come to my mind and those words could be based on things that's been on my mind for the past year, the past month, the past week, whatever I write it.
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
Some people say I'm conscious, some say I'm a gangsta rapper - it's just me doing me. I'm stomping in my own lane. I'm doing what I do.
Nas
Every generation witnesses atrocities. People in power try to fulfill prophecy.
Nas
I definitely have plans to do more collaboration albums in the future. I'm a big fan of Common. I'm a big fan of Scarface I'm a big fan of so many people, from Jeezy to... well, there are a lot of people's music that I respect. I don't know who I will collaborate with, but there's a great chance of something happening.
Nas
Never stop. Never settle. I believe in this message.
Nas
When I try to sound like the contemporary sound, it never turns out that way.
Nas
People afraid of criticism but I always put myself in a sacrificial position,they been know I ain't just rappin for fame
Nas
Use your own intuition. You are tomorrow.
Nas
I don't kill soloists only kill squads
Nas
Аll I need is one life, one try, one breath, I'm one man. What I stand for speaks for itself...they don't understand.
Nas
No temporary chaos is worth your sanity. Just knowing that whatever happens, it happens to the best of them too.
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
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.
Nas
