Nas parle de J.Jones

Lors de l'émission radio de Funk Master Flex sur Hot 97 où il recevait Nas,
Flex en faisant référence à une récente interview de Jay-Z, à demander à Nas si il était d'accord que certains rappeurs devraients plutôt prouver quelque choses avant de s'attaquer à des artistes du calibre de Jay-Z, par exemple.
"Not at all," répond Nas à Flex. "That's a joke.", en parlant de Jim Jones : "I mean, it's entertaining for me. I like to see him goofing off. It's funny. He got funny screw faces and all that and he's puckering his lips up. It's what they do. He's pucker man, real weird stuff. But you know what, I understand. Get money Jim Jones, Jim one. There's only one Jones in New York, baby."

Mais d'aprés Nas, ce qui se passe entre lui et le Dipset n'est pas plus sérieux que ça
"At the end of the day, am I friends with Dipset, nah I'm not? But I like to see them get money. Let's be real, like Biggie said, "forget that beef stuff. It's played out,'" ajoute-t-il. "I don't have beef. I walk down the street by myself. I don't have time for that. If you play with me, it's over. No matter who you are. My door is open. Walk in. If that's really where dudes wanna go. Right now with what I'm doing with my movement, it's not really fare for me to sit here and talk about Jim Jones, 50 or any of them dudes. What I'm doing is I'm trying to elevate it and we can all get on a tour."


Dans son nouveau morceau "The N"
Il y a un plusieurs passage où Nas fait référence de manière subliminale au crew Dipset
"Streetsweepers in that coup all black/bitches want my chipped tooth back/Steel mac,so my kufi never get smacked,"
"I kill ya'll for spitting songs that involve me, nigga/original verbal assassin, had to carve me a nigga."
