Nas is making the statement, ‘Life Is Good’ on the cover of his first album since his nasty divorce to Kelis, and what better way to make a statement then to pose on the cover with the money green wedding dress she left behind. Over the weekend, Nas caught up with Mina Saywhat at Philly’s Power 99 to chat all things album-related and he revealed that Kelis ‘stung him’ when she left the dress behind:
Yes, it was the real dress. It was in the crib. I didn’t know what to do with it. I don’t think Kelis intentionally left the dress there. I think that was just one of the things that was left behind. I saw it, and it was like ‘wow’, and it’s still in the crib so…I’m not sure if she left it on purpose or what, but I thought it was a good one. I was like “ohh she stung me with that one.” I been through things [that] I thought only happens on TV.
Nas has also had his fair share of headlines this year revolving around his relationship with his daughter Destiny, in which he rapped about on his latest single, ‘Daughters‘. Just in time for Father’s day, he offered up some advice to young fathers:
There are a lot of child fathers. What it makes you do is grow up. Unfortunately we’re young and still trying to live life, but it’s a serious thing, especially in the hood we are looked at as absent dads. My thing right now is men being men. It’s hard out there, and its really hard when you got a crazy baby mother situation, but men, we gotta be men. I’m speaking to fathers out there, especially who have daughters because we’re like their first love. We’re the first love of their life. We gotta represent, or the streets gonna raise them, and you know what happens when the streets raise women. There are some strong women out there, but as fathers we really need to be there. I’m trying to be better. I wish there was things I did better. I can’t erase the past so I’m just saluting all the dads out there who have sons and daughters.
Nas also weighed in on the Nicki Minaj Hot 97 Summer Jam fiasco and alluded something crazy was suppose to happen on stage (a kiss???) if they had actually went through with the show before she cancelled.
Before Summer Jam was even announced, Hot 97 hit me up about doing it. I feel like Summer Jam is the big joint, but its for more new artists. I said I would do it, but I wanted it to be a surprise. When Nicki got wind that I was doing it she was like ‘Yo let’s do this.’ It makes sense, we got the video out, it’s poppin, it’s going crazy, let’s do something crazy on the stage’. [Mina asked if they were going to kiss and Nas laughed]. I found out she wasn’t coming and I was like ‘Damn, I feel what Nicki’s going through’, cause I’ve been there before, but when I heard she wasn’t coming it through me off crazy.
