Editorial Review:
Album Description:
Nas is back and more controversial than ever on his new untitled Def Jam release. On this, his 9th studio album, Nas studies and lyrically dissects some of the our most divisive issues: race, inequality, poverty, and power. And who better to stir up debate than the man most consider one of the top five emcees in the history of the game? From his brilliant 1994 debut Illmatic, to his mainstream success with It Was Written, to anthems like "Hate Me Now" and "One Mic" and his venomous lyricism on "Ether," Nas' ability to tell stories, educate, make you dance--and make you look--is the stuff of rap legend. The outspoken Queensbridge rapper has sold over 15 million albums worldwide over the course of his storied career. Nas' Def Jam debut, Hip-Hop Is Dead, was released in December 2006 and debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 with over 350,000 copies sold in its first week. Preparing now for the 2nd Def Jam release, Nas is ready to release his untitled album on July 15th.

This album is very political. If you are a liberal you will love this album but if your a repulican you will most likely find it offensive.

What makes a patriot - his or her allegiance to the flag - the amount of tax money he or she pays - or his or her race? How do we prove our patriotism? Do we become patriots simply when we accept the tenets of so-called patriotism? True patriotism lives in the heart; patriotism is not pinned to the lapel or a hand salute.
Nasir "Nas" Jones is a patriot; he challenges and fights against the adversary. More specifically, Nas fights against the men (and women) who run this country without considerations for the lower class or the middle class. Nas fights against those who would "shackle" those beneath them, white, black, brown, or yellow. Nas fights against these so-called patriots.
Fighting patriotism is patriotic. And in America, which was founded on rebellion and revolution, fighting the government or the Man is a form of patriotism. Nas fights patriotism, but he uses his brains and his voice rather than a gun. Music, be it gangsta rap or Bob Dylan's folk ... Read More

I'm not a "fan" of Nas or of rap music in general, espeically when i heard what he wanted to name the album like most i was appauled and reluctant. However after hearing the album and its message i have to give credit where credit is due. I love this album and have ot problems listenging to it all day long.

Top to bottom, this album is excellent. Lyrically it has no equal. Today we dont get a lot of albums that actually have a meaningfull theme. People may question the beat selection but Nas is one of the few artists who lyrical content is more powerfull than a big time beat and catchy chorus. You have to listen to this album, put it in and let ride.

NAS is a masterpiece, simply put. Best cd of the year -- no surprise considering his unmatched ability and depth
But i have got to say emphatically that "Louis Farrakhan" is unarguably the best track of the year, probably of the millenium so far.
The quote in the song is Truth: "[W whites] did and do not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan." The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, has such great and righteous power.
I cannot say enough or too much about this track; NAS' legendary track should be the National Anthem, it's that remarkable and relevant as hell. Or heaven.
"Louis Farrakhan" represents these revolutionary times to a tee. The remarkable power of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, may He live forever, is unstoppable.
And NAS' righteous rage can be felt through and through.
