That song is crazy! It wasn't bad at all.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I knew that. I should have said N.W.A. sample the vocal melody years before Nas did.

I feel you on that. I think Nas was trying to do satire but its not clear enough to pass. He has a couple of good lines in there but this indie rapper NYOil did a similar song a couple of years ago that was a much better example of the idea Nas was trying to communicate. Nas is trying to be controversial again and draw attention to himself but I think he really needs to re-think his appraoch before he comes off as the new coon.

song Kelis mentioned at the Grammys from?
"Women Are The Niggers Of The World"
"be who you are and say what you feel
because those who mind don't matter
and those who matter don't mind."
