Nelly Hollas At Nas
Dj Eskimo:
CB: A lot of the criticism you've had of course is due to your success. But KRS One and to some degree, Nas have criticized you for targeting the mainstream and trying to appeal to a pop consciousness. Is that what you think about when you go into the studio?
N: I want to make something that is going to rock. That is what I go into the studio to do. I'm going in there to create. I got other songs. These are just the songs I choose to put on the radio. These cats that are talking have tried it but it just didn't work.
It ain't like they haven't tried it. Nas just did a song with J.Lo. C'mon if that ain't pop, what is it? Same thing with KRS One. He did a song with P. Diddy. Just because it didn't pan out the way he wanted it now he wanna diss everybody else that has had success doing what he's done tried and couldn't do.
CB: Have you tried to reach out and talk to any of these artists that have spoken your name?
N: Naw. I ain't reaching out. They never reached out to me. You know I am an easy person to talk to. I don't walk around with any big, swollen chest or anything. So they can come and holla at me. The thing with this Nas issue is that I used to be cool with dirty. He would come to party and get on stage with me and rock it. But yet and still he's talking. But I'm cool with all that. Nas sounds like the Mad Rapper right now. C'mon Nas, you've tried it a million times, you just didn't accomplish it. You did songs with Ginuwine and everybody.
now i aint no nelly fan but wot the dirtys sayin is tru! nas attempted to make commercial shit and failed!
=[Euthanasia]=:
Umm, Nas didn't criticise Nelly for appealing to the masses, he said that Nelly shouldn't of come at KRS like that, he said something along the lines of Nelly trying to come out like Nas by dissing someone blah blah. Quite ignorant of Nas to say that because I don't think Nelly was thinking of Nas when he dissed KRS, but Nas said nothing about Nelly's mainstream credibility, that was KRS alone.
M Dogg™:
Nas straight said "How dare you come at KRS-One" That's for real. No one disses Will Smith, or Fabolous, or other pop rappers. But when you diss KRS, you diss a hip-hop legand that put the REAL BLUEPRINT down. So then you spit on hip-hop history. Therefore, Nelly needs to get dissed.

I agree with the origional post.
I'm no Nelly fan... But what he's saying in the interview is true.
