Umm, ok. So this post is about Nas. But you put a picture of his half naked wife up??? How does this make sense? You are so ridiculous.

are you fucking kidding me? you mean the idiot who traipsed down the red carpet at the grammys wearing a shirt emblazoned with the word "N!GGER," telling reporters he was "reclaiming" the word, as though it was some sort of bold new idea, an inspired act of derring-do, as opposed to, say, just a cheap publicity stunt to promote his shitty new album of the same name? THIS is the person they choose to promote a discussion about what is and is not acceptable racial commentary?

T-I-R-E-D. if this moron is the standard bearer of politics in hip-hop, the art form is even more fucked than i thought. good fucking grief.

I'm confused. I had never heard of Nas, who I assume is a man since he's referred to as someone's husband, so why is there a photo illustrating this article of a woman in her underwear? I've never heard of Kelis either and when I clicked on the link, it leads to me not to an article about Kelis but to one about Nas, who I can now confirm is a man. So again, why the woman in her underwear?

@6 "So again, why the woman in her underwear?"

Because Charles will find any excuse to post a woman in her underwear. And sometimes he doesn't even bother finding a valid excuse.

considering the frequent lurid homoerotic nature of Slog, (which I'm a frequent contributor to and instigator of, I freely admit),I don't think we should be giving Charles shit for some pix of foxy ladies...

@5,

Is it possible for a man to fetishize women of his own race?

Besides, if anything, Charles fetishizes all women.

Nas? Kelis?

Klingons?

She is not half-naked in that pic.

If Charles does find a pic of Kelis approaching or exceeding 50% naked, though, I'd like to think he'll put that up.

A petition? Finally someone has found a solution for racism. Wish I had thought of it.

Oh, and considering the sheer quantity of Charles' non-sequiturs, why are we compaining about the ones that are most pleasant to look at?

Brandon, you are ignorant. Please fimilarize yourself with the man's work before dismissing him based on a t-shirt he wore once.

@3 + 14
I have to agree w/ stats. Nas is pretty awesome. Publicity stunts are an unfortunate necessity in entertainment, and the one you describe is pretty tame, so tame I'm not sure it qualifies as a stunt in fact. Not like getting your twat photographed coming out of a merc slr for example. His lyrics, the way he conducts himself, etc are very high on the respectable scale by my judgement. Its a shame you can't appreciate different types of art and music.

And I have to wonder, I don't follow hip hop closely, nor do i watch tv or listen to the radio at all. So how do I know who Nas is and there were several people in this posting stream who do not?

i'm actually quite familiar with nas and hip-hop in general, thank you very much. i'm entitled to not like his music, his cheap publicity stunts, and the fact that move on recruited him to be the spokesmodel for what is/is not acceptable racial discourse at fox news. he was on colbert last night and made a fool out of himself. he had no idea wtf he was talking about.

It's a Charles post. Do you have to ask why there is a picture of an attractive woman in it?

@15--I don't watch TV or listen to the radio either. Never heard of him/her/it.

I looked up nas on Google and it doesn't sound all that important to me.....found out it's "network-attached storage".

What does that have to do with a woman in her pajamas drinking coffee?
