I think its because Nas doesn’t really do press anymore that there’s an inherent bias from this new aged media. Even on Nasir Nas is telling these bloggers and journalists to basically kiss his ass. The only interview he’s done since Nasir dropped was with Angie Martinez.
These bloggers and so called music critics want to be coddled and have the artists be their best friends and shyt. Nas’s manager told Elliot Wilson that Nas would NEVER fukk with him again after he gossiped and leaking information about Nas’s divorce and Elliot responded by dissing Distant Relatives and calling it “the most disappointing album of the year”
Same thing with Vlad. Salaam Remi told Vlad straight up “Nas don’t give a fukk what you think”. And Vlad CONTINUES to run the “Nas picks bad beats” bullshyt into the ground.
Even when he vented about the Kelis situation. He didn’t turn to a magazine or blogger. He went on his OWN instagram page. Nas doesn’t give headlines to any of these muthafukkas so I KNOW they gotta feel a way
