"Anybody I'm dating, I don't want them to talk about my music. I don't talk about my music to them."
Nas"Working with great people makes you great; you learn a lot and it also gives you the experience and confidence to move on with your own career."
Nas"I don't get jealousy, I don't get how people hate each other - I never did."
Nas"Hip-hop is the streets. Hip-hop is a couple of elements that it comes from back in the days... that feel of music with urgency that speaks to you. It speaks to your livelihood and it's not compromised. It's blunt. It's raw, straight off the street - from the beat to the voice to the words."
Nas"I never stood for any president in my life, never voted, before Barack Obama. It changed my life to vote. It starts there with me. I never cared for politics before Barack Obama. I never thought it mattered to people like me."
