"I dropped out of Cooley High, gassed up by a cokehead cute pie - Nas

[Capitol]

First, was this actually the reason Nas dropped out and if it is did he ever speak on it? Might be another exaggerated line and it's an obvious reference to the movie, but I'm really interested in what he was doing with his life if this line is true. Did he just hit the studios 24/7. Was he on the streets? Bum? What happened to the bytch? I heard he was hanging with Eric B and Rakim during their sessions so was that when he was under 18?

Anything on this?

But he never said Alexander shot off his nose though. I think those were two completely separate lines.

Why would he shoot off the nose if he"wasn't" surprised they had black faces? Doesn't make sense for him to be referring to Alexander.

 

[jdagga]

More stories from nas... Ask him.. He use to keep his stash in his socks..
