Nas' N*gger Album In Jeopardy, ''We'll Have To See,'' Says L.A. Reid


Nas has everyone buzzing about his controversially titled album, n*gger. SOHH caught up with Island Def Jam chairman Antonio "L.A." Reid to discuss the details of the Queensbridge emcee's upcoming release.


As previously reported, Nas and his wife Kelis hit the Grammy red carpet wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with the title of his forthcoming album, n*gger. Though Nas seems confident that his controversial title will fly, Reid is not so sure. When asked if the new Nas album will be released with the n-word title, Reid replied with, "We'll have to see..."




According to Reid, the album, which was originally slated for a December release will drop sometime this spring. "Hopefully we'll get it in April or May," he told SOHH exclusively. "Something like that. Somewhere around there. It's getting there, we're getting close."


"Expect Nas to educate us without preaching to us," Reid says. "Expect him to give a point of view that maybe the world hasn't thought about. Expect him to really enlighten us."


In addition to the highly anticipated release from the Nas, Reid is looking forward to all of the Island Def Jam releases scheduled for 2008. "We have Mariah, we have Janet which comes out at the end of February," he says with enthusiasm. "We have a Ludacris album coming up. Lionel Richie, Young Jeezy, Rick Ross. We have a lot!"

So richtig überzeugend kommt seine Message aber nicht an. Vor allem die Brücke die er zu schlagen versucht, in dem er seinen Albumtitel als Synonym für Diskriminierung an sich verstanden wissen will, finde ich dann doch ein wenig zu konstruiert...

Nas' ''N*gger'' Album Still On, Set For April Release

Amidst rumors that the new Nas album is in jeopardy and a premature negative review from Maxim, a rep for the Queens rapper sheds light on the controversy.

"Nas is currently putting the final touches on the highly anticipated new album," said his rep, Tracy Nguyen, in an exclusive statement to SOHH. "He has not played any music yet for press, but is looking forward to doing so very, very soon."

As for rumors regarding a Nas and Jay-Z collabo album, fans eager to hear the once-dueling rappers team up Hov-R. Kelly style may have to wait...

"We've heard the rumors as well, and can confirm that Nas is only focused right now on his forthcoming solo release," Nguyen said.

As previously reported, when SOHH asked Def Jam CEO L.A. Reid earlier this month if the disc will be released with the N-word title, Reid replied saying, "We'll have to see."

To the contrary Nguyen has confirmed to SOHH that the upcoming album is still in fact titled n*gger and it is currently slated for an April 22 release.
