Cuz Society is fucked up and Nas isn't associating any group of people that aren't black in particular with the word nigger, nor is it the title of just a song but it's the title of his entire album, and he's himself, and he didn't do as good a job as explaining it as John Lennon did. So with all that said, I personally don't disaggree with Nas, and im not saying anyone should, but I definetly know why people would be outraged by what he's doing with his new album.
