I so thought this was gonna happen

I wasn't actually gonna buy The Dreaded N-Word. But I was looking forward to the idea that there would be an album called The Dreaded N-Word on the market.

I'm so disappointed.

A representative for Def Jam has confirmed to EW.com that hip-hop artist Nas has made an eleventh-hour decision to change the title of his new album from N----- to simply Nas.

If I was NYOIL, I'd change the name of my new album to The Dreaded N-Word just to rub it in Nas' face.

Oh, that's right, NYOIL isn't cool with things being named The Dreaded N-Word. Because then white people might start saying it.

Well, in that case, maybe he should call his new album, Me and the TIs Won.

The point being, Nas lost.
