Keepin’ Up With The Joneses

Posted by Bossip Staff

The First Couple of Hip Hop talk marriage, fashion and their upcoming reality show in the new issue of Fashion Rocks.

On Their Upcoming Reality Show:

“Sometimes I feel like “This is cool, man; I have TV cameras following me wherever I go,” he says, sipping a margarita from a plastic cup. “Other times I want to crawl under a rock.” His mouth turns down stubbornly. “I feel like an idiot–’Did I really agree to this?’ It feels so self-absorbed, so self-indulgent.”

“It’s going to be great, baby,” says Kelis in the calming tones of someone used to this conversation. “It has to be great, because if it’s not great we won’t let them put it on TV.”

On Fashion:

“Before I met Kelis, I wore Gucci or whatever was hot,” says Nas, with admiration in his eyes. “I didn’t dress badly, because there’s no excuse to disrespect the gods of the stage with some bummy shit: I always say you better rob, cheat, or steal threads to look good up there because hip-hop is about being fresh from your head to toes. But this is a whole different level. Kelis has really made me get my spirit up and step up my clothes game.”

It’s good to see these Hip Hop wifeys are getting due credit for upgrading boys to men.  This reality show may not be a good look for Nas.  Kelis is going to show her ass and we are going to find out who really runs this relationship.
