Nas 'ni**er.' Album

Nas insists his December 11th album will be entitled ni**er, despite reports of opposition from Def Jam.

I dont know where that [report] came from and neither does Def Jam, Nas said early Thursday morning (October 18) in a Manhattan recording studio when asked about a Fox News article published earlier this week. None of us knows where that came from.

You aint got no business worrying about what the word n*gger is or acting like you know what my album is about without talking to me, Nas tells MTV.com about the negative response to the album title from public figures, like Rev. Jesse Jackson.
