Nas Relents, Changes Album Title To "Nas"

@HONEYBFLY: I'm more interested in this than any other hip hop release lately. Nas has more talent in his toenails than Kanye & Jay-Z even if his last few albums have been disappointing. So, yeah, way to be clueless. Not all artists can regularly churn out such essential material as Touch My Body.

You guys posted the lead single a while back, it was maybe a B-/C+ at best.

Nobody is interested in this album and Def Jam knows it....this endless "N word" publicity b.s. just reeks of desperation to sell something that really really sucks.

So Spencer Pratt, if you're reading this, you may be qualified for an A&R position at Def Jam!

Dammit! I guess this is understandable, I mean how the hell would they ever market it? I wrote a short, about a young white kid going into the record store, asking a black clerk if they have the new Nas album. The kid can't say the name of the album, and the clerk doesn't know anything about Nas:

Kid: Hey, do you guys have the new Nas album?
Clerk: Which one?
Kid: The new one.
Clerk: (at a computer, typing away) God's Son?
Kid: No.
Clerk: Street's Disciple?
Kid: Not that one.
Clerk: Hip Hop is Dead?
Kid: Newer.
Clerk: Ahhh, I see. Right this way...
