Someone should stick the Gnarz symbol in a corner and make this an alternate cover.

Nas' interview with Billboard

The album's personal moments are indeed startling. "Did counseling, couldn't force you to stay," Nas raps on the closer, "Bye Baby," on which the MC finally finds closure to his turbulent union with Kelis. "We was friends, we had it all/ Reason that you don't trust men, that was your daddy's fault/ He in the grave, let it go, he no longer living."

We take Nas' albums very seriously," Def Jam president Joie Manda says. "The fact that he's as secure in himself as a man, that he can be this honest, says a lot." As for rumors that "Life Is Good" marks Nas' final release on Def Jam, Manda dismisses such talk. "Definitely no... we are going to continue to be in the Nas business."

And the business of Nas is picking up. There's a three-week June/July European tour and a headlining slot on the Rock the Bells festival, as well as appearances on "The Colbert Report," "Late Show With David Letterman," "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and BET's "106 & Park."
