    Just because Nas isn't on the Forbes list doesn't make him lazy. I mean, if someone gets into the industry to create music, then how can he be lazy if he's isn't multi-million dollar mogul. In music, you have your L.A. Reids and Clive Davis's. Then you have your Stevie Wonders and Bruce Springsteens. There's also your Dr. Dre's who can make music and be moguls, but focus more so on the mogul side of things. Why do we have to condemn rappers who just want to create music rather than being moguls?

    nas is an artist and should be checked for as an artist. when you start bringin up his personal life, you sound like a TMZ 13 year old girl
    its music. listen to it or dont.
    btw, good undercover I LOVE JAY Z thread.

    Hip-hop is dead.

    So nas is lazy because he don't have more money than jay z? He been doing shows the past 2 years and has been collaborating with a few artists this past year. He is making his new album now so please tell me how he's lazy.

    Haha at anybody thinking jay is some type of business mastermind , Jay-Z has a good ass business manager named John Meneilly that in combination with Steve Stoute now Jay-Z and Nas have the same manager true but the Business manager is the difference.

    Jay is worth half a bill in a career where the average shelf life is 5 years...He married a chick that has just as much as him and he surrounds himself with people who makes money... sounds like a business mastermind to me...

    Uh did Juelz Santana die or something? Last time I checked Nas just dropped an album and did a international tour. Juelz haven't dropped a album or Solo mixtape in over 7 years. Was once neck and neck with Lil Wayne buzz wise but lil tuna fish out hustled him.

    Dr. Dre makes one album every decade. But then again he doesn't write ? so he can't be considered a rapper.

    some artists just wanna make music, i mean Nas ain't the greatest business wise, but that shouldn't be your problem

    he makes great music that you wanna hear... so, so far he's not lazy with the quality of work he puts out. Hey i mean you

    don't know the dude personally so why does it even matter.

    So not having $500 million is considered lazy now?

    I still don't get the concept of caring about how much money a rapper has. Can someone explain this to me?

    He may have a great business manager. But at the end of the day it is Jay who is worth half a billi, if it was all on his manager, then said manager would dip and start getting his money up, right?

    But Jay has the final say on how he conduct his business... And for a drug dealer from Marcy Brooklyn... that came into the rap game at the age of 26 ( grandpa age in the rap game) and managed to pull off what he did ... then that makes him a business mastermind

    This Dr.Oliverpo is probably one of those hair saloon MTO gossiping bucket-mouth ? . This broad is basing an artist's career on hearsay from washed rappers like Camron, who he married, his baby mother, and his finances. Just listen to the music.


    ...? ridiculous

    Even though Nas is my favorite MC and I'd like to hear more from him, I can't cosign him being lazy. We sometimes forget that these artists have family and friends whose lives their trying to be in plus daily schedules that are usually hectic. Also, every artist works at their own pace.

    dont get too mad @ nas ... him and jayz are two different characters ... its obvious they dont have the same goals ... nas just wants to rap and put out a message ... jayz wants to be a business man and break a billion dollars ...

    nas lives off his talent ... jay lives off his hustle ...

    jayz has a good life but i guaranteed he doesnt control most of it ... most of his life is controlled by the business ...whicch is why he always says RAP WONT LEAVE HIM ALONE .... or THE GAME NEEDS HIM etc.......

    im sure nas is aware of those strings and probably doesnt want to get caught in that system .... some folks get in the game for it ...... and most get in the game just to make music ......... but they dont know about the strings that come along when your making music in the "industry" ............. big difference ....

    and shout out to nas for actually having 1million dollars in the bank ....... i dont give a ? who you are ... ? a black card .... lines of credits etc............... 1 millions cash in the bank > anything thats not more than 1millions in cash
