The man raps about his life and his view's on society and politics. As he gets older and the world changes around him he is going to rap about these changes. How can you expect Nas to drop an album that is completely positive or negative? I can see where you are coming from, in that you feel he contradicts himself (making a positive and then extremely negative track), but not everything in the man's life is positive, all of his life experiences have been positive, and not everything in today's society is positive. You have to understand that his fanbase is not solely children either, Nas is viewed as one of the old-school rappers, and by trying to recreate the sound and feel of the early 90's he's one of the few rappers left that has not sold out and gone commercial. Street's disciple drops in a month and a week, should be fire.
