Octobet 29, 2007 -- Nas' upcoming CD is under new fire from opponents who object to its controversial title. Brooklyn assemblyman Hakeem Jeffries demands that the New York Comptroller withdraw the $84 million state pension fund invested in Universal Music Group and its parent company Vivendi, if the conglomerate moves forward with releasing Nas’ next album with the title Nigger. “[They are] profiting from a racial slur that has been used to dehumanize people of color for centuries,” Jeffries said, according to The Brooklyn Paper.

I know Nas is laughing his ass off somewhere. Even if he ends up changing the album title, the entire world now knows he's putting out new music. Very effective marketing strategy...cheap, but effective nonetheless.
