In the tradition of its predecessor GOD'S SON, STREET'S DISCIPLE: NASIR OF NAZARETH seeks to erase the memory of Nas's commercial pop-crossover albums, instead hearkening back to the poetic glory days of ILLMATIC. The New York hip-hop legend returns to the thoughtful, introspective philosophy that turned heads early in his recording career. There are no attempts at fancy, hook-laden production here--quite the opposite in fact, as the tracks almost seem to go out of their way to be workaday, subservient frameworks to the lyrics. Sampling records (Louis Armstrong's "Duke's Place", Lou Reed's "Take a Walk on the Wild Side") that have rarely been used by other rappers, Nas also makes it clear that his focus here is strictly on the message. Nas addresses weighty topics as mortality, true love, religion, politics, family, and personal responsibility. Those themes might seem far from the thug-life reveries of many of his contemporaries, but for Nas it's business as usual.

We don't want Nas doing interviews on MTV.

no, its not that, that just not how Nas does it, he hasn't done it in the past, he aint doin it now, it aint nuttin new.............

What i mean is, if you here Nas say something about when the album is droppin, its gotta be true.
and where els would you here nas saying something but on mtv?

Nas' Street Disciple is dropping Sept. 14. He was gonna have a two CD release but decided against it. Right now he's whittling down 40 tracks to a more manageable one track list. Can't wait.
