Fuck Harvey Levin and anybody that loves his celebrity news website. First you prematurely pronounce the impending death of Lil Wayne (Weezy Forgives. We Don't.) and then you try to link the horrific actions of one of the Boston Marathon culprits to our culture? "DEAD BOMBING SUSPECT: HEAVY INTO HIP HOP" You don't say? It's 2013 and most kids are into rap music. We've been penetrated pop culture, you cock suckers. "What's interesting... hip-hop lyrics are notoriously violent and often degrading to women." So our music is at fault in this tragedy? Let's be clear the only bombs my culture cosigns is DJ Funkmaster Flex's sound effects. Thirty Mile Zone is prone to post anything to get traffic. Fuck dude and his coffee cup. Get you a Rap Radar cup and drink with us in the winner's circle.
Oh Miguel. Leg droppin your fans? You ain't Hulk Hogan and that wasn't part of the program. That's no way to treat the adoring ladies, brother.
Life isn’t always good. And Esco‘s recent ups and downs are flashed across the screen before unveiling the cover art for his next album, Life Is Good. We’ll see how good it is July 17th.

Good Look! Can’t wait to buy this day one!
Not gonna lie, Nas is a beast on the mic, but that cover looks pretty fuckin’ fruity.
http://bkjames.bandcamp.com/
Dope dope dope, coppin 3 copies
Classic stuff right there and creative I may add.
^ cover is cool son. You bugging.
NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTING BUT ALBUM COVERS DONT MAKE THE ALBUM ITS THE CONTENT EXCITED STILL THOUGH CANT WAIT
Dope album cover!! This will be his Marvin Gaye – Here My Dear album, you young boys wouldnt know nothin about that.
That cover is fire
That’s the subliminal diss to Kelis, it signifies that he’s still living his life without her
Dope. I’m ready for this
DON STATUS!!!!
……NAS AND QUEENS WIN AGAIN!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Great cover. Kelis’ wedding dress on his lap. Life is Good! Pow!
Not feelin the cover hyped for the album though.
nice ad and dope cover.
That cover is a nice big fuck you to Kelis lmao. Dope ass cover
Magnifique.
Good idea, bad cover.
I think it would have been better if the album title was on the upper right side of his name
Nas is way ahead of the game…Nasir Olu Dara Jones is the true definition of a REAL ARTIST! The cover is dope. The wedding dress signifies the drama/gossip the media spent years & continues to do speculating about his life (divorce, money & music) and the glass of champagne signifies that through it all he survived and truly “Life Is Good!”.
I can’t wait for this album to drop!
Thats a dope ass cover I gotta get the hard copy I get the message through all the bullshit you go through life is good
This made me actually hype for this album. The cover is pretty good. “The Don” is my shit.
STILL AIN’T TOUCHIN JAY-Z “THE BLUEPRINT” COVER. THAT’S ONE OF THE BEST ALBUM COVERS OF ALL TIME WHEN IT COMES TO PLAYER STATUS
wow a cover that actually means something :0
SO FAR,
NASTY = TRASH
THE DON= TRASH
DAUGHTERS= CLASSIC
I knew that the green dress would make its way into the lyrics, but on to the cover? Ha! Get ‘em Nas!!! ESCO LET’S GO!!!
I think he should have did something else. Its like saying Hey I’m fine without you but I’m gonna keep focusing on you. Why give her any attention at all
You think Kelis is gonna pose on her album cover with Nas’ wedding ring being thrown in the trash? Naw cus she is truly not thinking of him. To prove Life is Good, you don’t even give that person a platform to feel their still on your mind.
Music will be priceless, cover, not so much so.
Kind of Creative… Nas is not fucking around this time
90K-95K first week
Nas and The Game always hype up there albumS like its the greatest thing we ever gonna hear but then its complete TRASH!
Please have AZ on it
Jay-Z won
hope he will land a hit album !!
Dope.
YOOO ILL FUCKIN COVER MAN!!! WOW!!! KELIS DRESS = ETHER!!! NAS WON LIFE IS GOOD CANT WAIT!!
If you like hip-hop, you might like my blog, Rhymes and Reasons. It’s a series of interviews with hip-hop heads who discuss their lives and a few songs that matter to them. Pretty powerful stuff. Check’em out here:

I think its supposed to be ironic. The title vs the image. I don’t think the message is supposed to be I’m fine w/out you. I think it’s more of this is what life is now and how it’s not how he planned it hence the dress w/out her and him alone.

Looking forward to the new Nas album………. nice cover art
New Nas album………. nice cover art
Only album apart from the slaughterhouse joint I’m spending my hard earned on!!
NY WINS AGAIN! WHAT’S A MILKSHAKE?
WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
Fucking genius. you know how we used to say…… Im copping one for the crib, one for the car, and keeping one wrapped in plastic cuz its a CLASSIC!!!
LIFE IS GOOD, i cant wait for this shit to drop!
Nas n Pac..two of the best
Biggie..catalog is not big enough
Nas the greatest ever.
July 17! I’m coppin
I see alot of haters, why? Nas been there since 91. He is the rapper everybody wants to be. Now shut up!! Nas is the best
Love the symbolism of the cover. Buying this day one
oh shit the cover..
You can tell that fans of other artists are very insecure when it comes to Nas win or lose Nas is the GOAT! He doesn’t have to pretend to be perfect because his talent will always make him a true winner. Dope cover from a classic and legendary artist. Nas is the benchmark in hip hop.
Nas the goat
*yawn* this nigga ain’t had a good album since Gods son!!! That nigga jay was right on takeover, Nas is trash
