Grammy Controversy
An article by 
Now I dont even watch the grammy’s but I happened to stumble across this flick of Nas and Kelis on the red carpet obviously promoting Nas’ next joint. Seems like the shirts caused a little bit of fuss with some people.
Is he wrong for it? Was it done in bad taste? Drop your thoughts
Props to ICEDOTCOM for the video

[...] Read the rest of this great post here [...]
Maaaan after seeing Kelis in them pants, I forgot what I was suppose to comment about. Whats the question again?
The music business is a game of politics and bs. I personally don’t have a problem with NAS’ album title or w/ him promoting it at all. However, if I were managing him it would’ve been a t-shirt with N and not NIGGER to keep some mystery around the album
….. Martin and Malcolm would be turning in their grave right now!!! I think money is getting Desperate and just trying to get attention at this point. First “Hip Hop Is Dead” now this bullshit. I hope the music is actually good. I could of bought a single of that last joint and been good.
I agree Senor
It’s gimicky at this point
It would make more sense of Tupac had done or Dead Prez but NAS is reaching and Kelis adding her two cents at the end? Why she ain’t rolling with Pharrell again?
I don’t think NAS approached the situation with his mind. I think that it is very unprofessional to attend an awards ceremony as big as the Grammy’s wearing a shirt that firsts, disrespects our race, and second, sends a bad message to our young people. I think NAS should’ve thought about this before he stepped on the red carpet
I guess im the only one that thinks this situation is getting blown way out of proportion. Yall need to quit frontin like yall dont say nigga at least 10 times a day. Maaan please!!! And dont give me that nigga and nigger are different because most of the time when people are saying it they dont mean it in an affectionate way.
Aint like he put it out on front street and is airing dirty laundry. Dude is just pointing out the bigass pink elephant in the middle of the room that everybody wants to pretend aint there.
Malcolm and Martin rollin in theyre graves alright…but it aint bout no damn shirt thats for sure
and lol @ people being more mad at a nigger shirt than the niggerish behavior you see on the streets and niggerish shit you hear on tv and the radio every goddamn day….
yeayyyy Nas has the hat on that I picked out for him for his photoshoot the night before!!!! Im sooo happy he wore it .. !! Even though I got him a size too big.
