How does Jay stickin around have anything to do with whether Nas will retire or not ??

if nas retires....nas retires....
its not gon be one of those couple year stints that most "retiring" rappers do....
so when he does retire, its gon be a sad day for the industry, considering that nas is one of the top if not the top artist out there...
theres not many people around anymore that rap about the things jayz and nas would...or big and pac would...
nowdays its all about getting an ass to shake, or getting "crunk" in the club....
which is all good fun, but its getting old now.........
and i dont want that to be the future of hip hop.....
.

Yes Nas is gonna Retire just Like Jay n X did

Its not a money scam so more peeps buy his album thinkin its gonna be his last so he can buy Kelis a boob, face, an lip job, is it? it couldnt possibly be that!!!

When are you ho'z gonna realize the RAP[ GAME Is nothin more than a Money Scam, thats all it is, i resopect they flows, nas is dope, but he announced this for the reazons i stated above

Peace out

don't worry there is still common, saigon, Quan...some underground rappers need to hit the mainstream...

If they hit the Mainstream, what the fuck does that say for Underground rap?

FUCK SELL OUTS..........

Sellin ya soul too a record company.............
Being in the Charts.........
Next comes the collabs with Pop star sluts.............

WHAT EVER HAPPEND TOO STAY TRUE TO YOUR ROOTS?

Niggas done fucked that expression up with they selling out

your probably right but you don't get my pooint..i mean like just some from the underground hit the mainstream hit one of those big record labels, def jam etc..theey will actually have a music video and appear on the radio more and there still rapping about the same shit

Cruck muzik ain't hip hop. The area I live in listens to crunk muzik. Thats all. And if I come out and say what I feel these so called south siders will kill me, or some shit. I ain't afraid but if Nas retires I will consider him a coward. Like Pac and Em he could try to bring himself back. lol. heh I said what I feel. :D. I hope somebody like Da Vinci Ajax or Indeph make a label. It'll be dope.

I am from Orlando, crunk muzik is big out here, but its more club bangers than hip hop...

Hip hop is lyrical, in my opinnon, theres hip hop, which is lyrical an about the beats, theres rap which is commercialized hip hop basically, just more about making money than actualk rhyming, an theres club bangerz which is just really a ''dance'' mix of rap muzik.......

but thats just my opinnon

But shouldn't people take a look at the real stuff. I know I like that kinda muzik here and there.

i dont know if anybody posted this b4 me... but calm yo hopes bro... nas isnt retiring for a while... i dont remember where i got this from but it was a legitimate source...
his last album will be called nastalgic... so if thats his next then u'll know he's done... but from what i hear, his next few albums will be called like...damn, i dont remember, but i know he supposed to do like 3 or 4 more... somebody could prolly find what im talkin about and bring the album names,.... im too lazy tho... w/e just know he aint retiring

I hope its not true.I liked nas ever since i was a kid. that would suck if he was gone.

nas is ok but havent had many hits lately
