With all the hoo ha (technical term there) in the US of late regarding the use of racist and sexist language in hip hop, Nas has now captured the headlines by announcing his next album will be called 'Nigga'. Genius. The rapper announced the title of the album, due out in December, at a gig in New York on Friday night. Def Jam have yet to confirm the title, though Wikipedia are already reporting it as the official name, citing sources "close to the project" as having confirmed that the so called 'n' word will be used as the title. The new long player will be preceded by a greatest hits package from the rapper's old label Columbia. That's going to be called 'Hits For Hos'. No, only joking.
