NaS' latest

NAS – UNTITLED (2008)


”untitled"
This is the 9th and latest studio album from one of hip hop’s greatest, NaS. Originally titled ‘Nigger,’ NaS changed it to ‘Untitled’ after much pressure from the record company. I just got this album in the mail today and after reading review after review, I figured hip hop fans should hear this. From the first few tracks I’ve heard, it sounds like NaS is finally back (Illmatic and It Was Written were classic, but we know he fell off after that). Nas studies and lyrically dissects some of the our most divisive issues: race, inequality, poverty, and power. Definitely something to pick up if you’re a fan of hip hop, particularly political hip hop.
