On Angie‘s born day today, Esco visited Hot 97′s rush hour drive. He discussed his NYE show, his 4 Grammy nods and making amends with Kelis. He also weighs in on CNN awarding him as the best lyricist of all time and mentions he’s already working on his next album. Yup, life is still good.

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.
Jay-Z wont be able to drop an album better than LIG.
GOAT…
Cool interview love the respect hes been getting i trust him when he says he in the zone because i know hes gonna have some crazy ones with that premier/nas album. When that drops everyone gonna go crazy
@Theunderated
Premier has always been begging nas for that album and he confermed it was in the works. Expect to hear some of Premos best beats and amazing rhymes from Nas. The list will change after that one.
hope he wins a grammy this year album was amazing
Congrats to Nas on all of his success! Nas is ageless…this man looks younger than he did 20 years ago. That’s a sign of a truly happy, stress free & humble man. LIFE IS GOOD!
Looking forward to hearing new music & can’t wait to hear his Grammy speech!
Def is tha GOAT
Def Jam did NAS wrong. They promoted William L. Roberts and 2 Chainz albums more then Nas’s “Life Is Good”.
nas is dope… caught this the other day its random but its dope…http://bit.ly/RFP5te
Im STUNNED to hear Nas never won a grammy…..WTF
and by the way, Nas the only rapper in the elite who keeps is 100% hip hop. I give that to him. #salute
@Blackshady Em 50 and Game dnt keep it hiphop to U??
NASSSSS
agree with @Black Shady! Nas keeps it 100% and doesn’t have to make tracks with the “young guys” to stay relevant. GOAT
Nas has a artist check him out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHxEMa0MnLw&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Angie got a GOAT for her birthday. “All I want for my birthday is a goat. All I want for my birthday is a goat.” -Angie Martinez
@ Uh oh, WHAT IS IT WITH YOU IGNORANT ASSES. WHAT THE HELL DOES JAY-Z HAVE TO DO WITH NAS’ INTERVIEW? BOTH GUYS ARE COOL WITH EACH OTHER NOW, THEY SHOW UP AT EACH OTHER’S PARTIES, KICK IT FROM TIME TO TIME, ETC. IT’S 2013 GET OFF THAT DIVISIVE COMPARISON BS. IF YOU LIKE NAS COOL, IF YOU LIKE JAY COOL BUT THERE’S NO NEED TO BRING UP ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER IF THE SUBJECT ISN’T IN THE INTERVIEW! IT’S NO DIFFERENT THEN WHEN THE SAME LOSER’S HAVE TO ALWAYS COMPARE CTE & MMG WHENEVER A NEW VIDEO OR SONG IS POSTED.
PEACE & GET MONEY!!!
MOGUL $$$ GAME’13!!!!
Very cool interview
Waits for grammys……
