About a year ago I created a stir on the internet when I wrote should rappers like Nas pay restitution to the communities they defamed through there exploitation lyrics.From the start people said that why Nas?Isnt he one of the better ones.I argued that I had relatives in Queensbridge that knew Nas and say he never lived the way he painted in his music.I know white kids from the south who told me they went to NY drove around and found Queensbridge.I asked why?They told me that it was a rush because the way the rappers described it.They were disapointed only to find a few bumbs and some panhandlers.No drug dealers on every corner rapping instead working people looking at them like I just pay my bills and get by.The point is although things happen there all to often it is the artist who have an obligation to show his surroundings as accurate not sensational.Nas being a follower stuck his finger in the wind and saw which way the wind is blowing.The wind is toward ignorance,self hate,cooning,selling out and making money.His recently deciding to come out with an awful song talking about be a n***** is a race traitor's anthem.He has set us back 100 years even worst than Flavor Flav.I want to know after seeing 50 cent,Nas,Flav,Lil Wayne,Lil Jon ect,
is this the best the Black man can do to make money?Are we that f@#$ in this country?I am starting after seeing so many ignorant people on this is 50 that may as well be the case.The following is a post from nationalist rapper NYOIL-Kalagenesis

3 Things Cannot Be Long Hidden: The Sun, The Moon & The Truth!"
===============================
Nas is that n****!
By NY Oil
Yeah y'all Nas is that n**** with his title screen printed on a black tee repping for Niggas world wide!
I've always said that from time to time in the creative stream of things there comes an artist that breaks the mold. That steps to the status quo and smashes it's protective walls as if they were building blocks. That artist like this create the atmosphere for change in whatever industry they occupy. Artist like these establish a foundation that inspires other artist to free themselves of the yoke that was the stat quo. They in their own way speak Truth to power and shine a searing light on the lies and mediocrity that blind us.
But let me be clear Nas is not that n****
When an artist like this comes along he strikes fear into the hearts of the gatekeepers. In layman's terms Record execs s*** bricks because their cookie cutter artist wont cut it any longer. They may actually be required to do what they're paid to and develop talent. Search for talent and ultimately, GOD FORBID. give the PEOPLE what they want. This has happened before people. the upheaval an artist like this causes is unacceptable to the gatekeepers of the status quo. You see, there's a lot of money in keeping your kids dumb at stake. So labels have devised a nefarious technique to counteract the effect of these types of artist.
But before I go on I must stress that Nas is NOT that n****
The technique for counteracting these artist is as follows. They will never sign., do business with, or even acknowledge the Artist of change. If pressed they will admit to having "been up on" this Artist in a hallow attempt at affirming their hipness. When asked if they plan on working with this artist they will give a random list of excuses not limited to "He's hot but .. that kind of music doesn't sell", "She's the s***.. but people ain't ready for that" , "I wish i could bring them here but right now 'insert corporate higher ups name here' is on some other s***" All the while they are changing pace, making adjustments, having conference calls, and restructuring. making the final preparations to counteract this Artist of Change. The end game plays like this: they find an artist on their current roster that they can refashion to fit the basic mold of the Artist of change. If they dress him up like, or give him a similar message to the artist of change and put hundreds of thousands in promotional dollars behind the "Stat quo Artist they can undermine and even usurper the Artist of change. You can always identify the Stat Quo Artist from the Artist of change because when asked about his "New image" or "New Direction" he is hard pressed to answer sincerely or intelligibly. In fact the Stat Quo artist will blather on in circles clumsily during interviews stumbling over his own ignorance of what his "New Direction" is.
And after hearing your interviews, seeing the title of your upcoming LP, and hearing your "leaked" song "Be A N***** Too" I can say without doubt....
Nas you are THAT n****!
Nas you're that n**** that pretends to have a grasp on the social quagmire that our people are stuck in and yet cannot for the life of you articulate or justify your position on this obvious plea for controversy. Does this brother realize that his attempts at diffusing the word "N*****" by making it some all inclusive colloquialism to represent all races is as weak as the beat he spit it too? Does he realize that when Robert Schwartz decides to stop being a n***** all he has to do is change his look. maybe trade in the bapes and backpack put on a suit and he's right and exact. When Robert Yung decides he's no longer a n**** he can be whatever an person of Asian decent can be in the country stereo types not withstanding. When Robert Rodriguez decides to stop being a n***** he can become a proud man of Latin descent. However for Robert Jenkins who's Grand parents where NIGGERS, blown over by fire hoses and beat within an inch of their lives, when the term meant what it will always mean despite his attempts to make it a term of endearment. Whom despite his affluence or allegiance has to be as scared as a runaway slave when pulled over for driving black or shopping black, or standing in a group of more than 3 in his own neighborhood while black or any of the number of things blacks can do innocently while being black and end up dead because the Cop who shot him 50 times like Shawn Bell or 42 like Amadou Diallo didn't consider himself a n*****.. We're the only race that embraces our disgrace, and now you would have everyone else sing along with us in our shame.
My n**** Nas
You've been everything they ever told you to be. Nasty Nas, Nastrodomas, Nas Escobar. and now you're their N****.
At what point are you going to be a MAN?
Last year I put out a song called "What up my Wigger Wigga!" It spoke to people of all races that have used the term n**** so cavalier by using the racist terms that are assigned to their respective races. I was blown away at how similar our two songs were. However yours held the exact opposite message. It was at that moment I realized who Nas was, and who I was.
Sam Cooke Sang it best.. "A change gone come"
you would do well to heed those words.
come back brother..
