Queensbridge MC Nas has been blessing his fans with his brand of thought provoking story telling for years. Now the rapper is issuing a challenge to his lyrical brethren to highlight more than just their "jet setting" lifestyles in their rhymes. "When you first get into the music business, you're excited to be there, you want to make records that everybody's loving," the rapper said in a statement. "But, after you've got years in the game, you wanna give people the real side of you, show people some character."
According to Nas, rappers should write more songs that focus on the realities of life those less fortunate are experiencing.
"Life is good; there's yachts, there's nice cars, there's movie roles. We overcame... but, in the middle of all that... you can't forget about the ones that didn't make it with us. Life is good, but that still doesn't erase all the horror out here," Nas said.
