    Damn…wish I was there. Hov was here in DC @ the Kennedy Center last Friday. He wanted anywhere from $150-$400. I couldn’t see giving him that…but I f*ck with him…

  • AYANA

    OMG, Nas looks soooo good. Dayum, I loved him since the “It ain’t hard to tell” video when he had the chipped tooth….I love you NAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL….Sorry, I had a moment.

    Did anyone peep Nas is not wearing his wedding ring either? Awwww, as much as I love him, I hate to see a beautiful couple part like this (him and Kelis). I really hope they work things out

  • Virgo911

    I went to the show in the DC area. Although Jay-Z wasn’t there obviously, it was a classic concert if you really love Hip-Hop. Nas, A Tribe Called Quest, Mos Def, Meth and Red, Ghostface and Raekwon, De La Soul…the list goes on. There were also new artists there as well (2 stages).

  • COME ON

    NAS if of the hook fine. I bet Nas killed it last night he is my all time favorite artist-rapper. I like JZ also. Yeh but on a serious note I hope nothing is wrong with him and kelis.

    I would have gone crazy seeing mos def and a tribe called quest. They were missing the roots though. Anyways seems like a great concert. I wonder if soulja boy or plies were upset that they didnt get invited?

    That looks like a damn good concert. Reminds me of when the east coast hip hop scene was on top

  • uptowngirl

    Jay-Z, Nas, Ghost Face and Mos Def could get it. At the same time!!! Choo-Choo :-) LOL J/K

  • Rosie

    I guess some of you share my enthusiasm about how good Nas looks. I was thinking Nas must be workin out because he looks Damn Good! But he’s always looked Damn Good even with the chipped tooth. Plus, Nas’s lyrics make me all tingly inside… I absoulutly f*ckin love the sh*t out of Nas… Best Rapper Ever!!! Jay too. I love Jay. Noone can even Touch Nas right now….except maybe Jay but still.. I have my doubts!

  • ladiem

  • no name required

    i was there at the show on sunday and it was CRAZYYYYYYYYYYYYY

    redman and method killed it they were the best IMO

    and they bought out slick rick

    infact alot of surprises for the night

    nas performed to a live band and bought out jay z

    tribe called quest bought out busta

    the show was long though

    started at 230pm ended past midnight!

    thats the one great thing about hip hop shows in NYC

    most of the rappers are from the new york area so you always get a good show

  • no name required

    andddddd i would like to thank live nation for giving me my moneys worth!

  • Kesha

    Dang…i wish they would come to N.O.!!! (together) Nas just left and Jay was here a lil while back with MJ, but MOS DEF aint been here in a minute… I’d pay mad money to see that

  • 6969

    damn whys everyone hating on redman??? him and meth were the best at that show..

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/solanges_fan1 Ya dig

    Does anybody know what type of shoes jay has on?

  • STR8upPoLiTiCs

    2 NAS and who ever reads this???

    This will be the ULTIMATE ALBUM OF ALL TIME!

    All it needs is beats from Dr. Dre and a sprinkle of Timberland in the mix! U start by mixing the pot with a flow that is LOUD and WORDS mean what they say! From the WEST…ICE CUBE!

    U will need a rapper that has a flow that will swallow you whole and spit you out! From the EAST…Nas! U will need a rapper that will give you a 110% every time he hits the studio and has a rugged mello type of flow from the SOUTH…Scraface!

    Take all 3 and put them all together and tell me what do u have??? A triangle of POLITICS!!!!!!!!!

    Nasir Jones, (Kid Wave)

    A.K.A: Nasty Nas, Nastradamus

    KNOWN AS: USA MOST BRAVE RAPPER….what!

    “I want to do an all-Dr. Dre album,” he told MTV News. “A whole thing with Dre and a

    whole thing with Primer, and drop ‘em on the same day. That’s the real thing. All right,

    I said it. That’s what I really wanna do.

    That is GREAT! BUT BIG PLANS means hard work and dedication for the “people” the fans

    That want this! The title of the NEW ALBUM: THE JOURNEY IS NEAR: ELECTION 08′

    ALBUM RELEASE DATE: NOVEMBER, 03 2008…..

  • Nikkislice

    Yeah Jay wasn’t at the Chi show of course… but Nas killed it! I was disappointed in Mos, but I love him still.
