Nas Travels With Jay-Z
Amid rumors that Nas is being shelved by Jay-Z, the QB MC announced plans to join Jigga in Africa for The Global Express Tour.
On Monday the rapper explained why he would like to visit Africa alongside his one time nemesis.
"I would like to do the Africa thing," he told MTV. "And that would be about it, because it's the most important thing for Africans to see two African-Americans, their lost children, who's been the head of hip-hop culture."
He went on to explain that the duo would like to travel in order to clear up some misconceptions.
"A lot of our verses are misinterpreted in other countries, and they get the N-word wrong and they don't understand why we come up like this and why we say the things we say. So when they say it and when they do it, they just doing the gangsta mentality. They don't understand where it comes from, so we want to bring that connection from America to Africa and show them what we mean and show the brotherhood and show that me and this brother is about peace," he noted.
Nas went on to explain that he is readying two street singles to go along with a mainstream single by the album's release. Hip-Hop is Dead...The N is now scheduled to drop in December.
