Nas Nas' new album Hip Hop is Dead comes out this Tuesday December 19th - a really bad release date to have if you want to make it on to anyone's year-end 'best of' list. To celebrate - aka drum up some attention - Nas is playing Webster Hall in NYC on Monday December 18th. The previously announced Nas shows are four days later at Nokia Theatre.

The Nas album is pretty great and I will be attending his concert, but I have one question about this post.

Why did you like to the Passion of the Weiss? He's a moron

The Best rapper alive........... Hova is nice, but NAS TAKES TO ANOTHER LEVEL. THE KID IS THE TRUTH. The album is fire, like all of his albums. I swear if this dude wasn't doing music, I weren't be a hip-hop fan. Real Talk. Hip-hop is dead.

One.

Any clue what happened with this show last night? I showed up around 9pm and everything was wrapped...wtf!? Security was spewing "show's over" and every thug, blogger and backpacker were visibly pissed (including myself). Who lists a show's "start time" at 8:30pm and forces everybody out of the venue by 9pm? Hot97, that's who. Terrible way to celebrate an album release.

Backpackers? You mean young adults traveling on a tight budget?

i was pissed, i sent them an angry letter. that is unheard of for a show to start and end so early. plus i already purchased tickets and feel totally cheated.
