DaaaaaaaaaMN!!! Nas be preachin'. Some of the things are real but some are not. I don't feel he should dictate what other peeps should do with their careers. Videos are just videos none of it is really real. I love them both for the words they speak and their style. When Nas did "You Owe Me" I didn't flake out on him cuz I know he's a man wit skill. Now Nas came out wit Stillmatic and gets 5 mics. The Roots have always been a favorite of mine when they backed Jay up I was like bravo. Jay-Z has gotten so commercial over the years it was almost like having one of the best hip hop bands bless his flow and put a spin on his regular radio joints. Roots are still hot! They make themselves who they are and no one can fuck that up. If Nas made a joint wit Christina Aguleria or whatever I'd knock him for 60 seconds like everyone else but hey I would never front on his talent. I know Nas was pissed when cats jumped on his Nastradamus and I Am cd's cuz he went a lil commericial wit Ginuwine and P Diddy so I don't think he has room to knock the Roots. Tho I did question them for backing Jay just for 60 seconds. All in all the Unplugged CD was way better than the original... go Jaguar!!
