There's really nothing better than music to bring people together and to have amazing music being not just created inside walls but then decimating and activating is going to be special.

More quotes by Nas
Used to ride with him to Brooklyn, Lewis and Halsey, co chocolate thai, vernon style and burn it down
Nas
I'm inspired by people like Nelson Mandela. Can you imagine - you know how racist America was back then - imagine how racism was in South Africa when he had to stand up and say what he had to say. That's bravery beyond comprehension.
Nas
And the stuff that I write, is even tougher than dykes.
Nas
I never see the whips niggas be claimin' they drivin, I guess 'entertainment' means blatantly lyin'.
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
Somehow the rap game remind me of the crack game
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
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
When I try to sound like the contemporary sound, it never turns out that way.
Nas
When I write a story, I just wanna tell you what's in my head. It can come from real life and then turn into fantasy, stuff just rhyming. And write about what you know. I just like to tell stories that have not been told or [told] from my perspective.
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
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
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
Much success to you, even if you wish me the opposite.
Nas
The flaws, the mistakes I make - that's the real me.
Nas
I'm sure we're gonna meet some bumps in the road, but if it's meant to be it will happen.
Nas
My record company had to beg me to stop filmin' music videos in the projects. No matter what the song was about, I had 'em out there.
Nas
I have no tattoos that I regret - I have had some that I have had changed according to how my life was.
Nas
I rap for listeners, blunt heads, fly ladies and prisoners
Nas
It's foul what this money could do, cash corrupts the loyal.
