Nas is set to release his new album, the controversially entitled N*gger, on Def Jam on July 1st. A song from the album, Be A N*gger Too was recently leaked online, and continues his passion for social awareness. It makes reference to Islam, Eminem's n-word slip up, and the recent murder of South African reggae artists Lucky Dube.

The chorus goes:"I'm a n*gga/ he's a n*gga / she's a n*gga / we some n*ggas / wouldn't you like to be a n*gga too?"

A recent survery of almost 2000 hip-hop heads on www.sohh.com revealed that over 85% were not offended by the album title.
