Biggie vs. Nas in the Land of Make Believe

Title: Nas vs. Biggie: The Battle That Never Happened
Artist: DJ Doo Wop

Grammy Nominees That Won't Win, Edition 1: Nas

Title: Sly Fox
Artist: Nas

Sunday night is Grammy night, and that means cursory nods to prestige artists who won't win but probably deserve to. Between now and Sunday we'll be celebrating some of those, and we're starting with Nas's diss on Fox News, "Sly Fox". Nas's Untitled (that wasn't the original title) is nominated for Best Hip-Hop Album.

"Fox has a Bushy tale."


TOPICS

Hip hop star Nas joined forces with grassroots organization Color of Change and yesterday delivered over 620,000 petitions to FOX News, demanding an end to the daily on-air racism. Last night he joined Stephen to talk about the fight against FOX (particularly Bill O'Reilly, who Nas says is "scared") and performed the first single off his new untitled album, "Sly Fox."
