The comments were usually along the lines of "he's not relevent anymore... he's trying to become relevent by creating this drama". I'm assuming this album cover was going to go with the title -- I'm sure those on sites like Perez Hilton would have discovered the historical intent had it been with the title :) Most of the comments I’ve seen on the internet seem to be bashing Nas because originally his album cover was called “Nigger”, but he was forced to change the name of the album (there are pictures of him and his girlfriend sporting jackets with the n-word on it while promoting the album at some event, but I’m at work and I don’t want to search them up.)
