Nas - God's Son

That's God's Son and not Godson. I'm not totally sure whether this album's all about big JC or whether Nas is claiming to be some sort of semi-deity. It's definitely not about his relation to the uncle or family friend who plays the role of his godfather though.

One song's called 'The Cross'. If we presume that there's a religious bent to this album, then that's probably about that whole crucifixion thing rather than a real-time description of hanging in the air waiting to nod the ball into the back of the net.

Another of Nas's song's is called 'Thugz Mansion (N.Y.)'. I'm going to presume that this is what justified the explicit content sticker. No-one should be exposed to spelling like that. No-one!

Also, just to confirm, this isn't the first lyrical outing for former England cricket captain, Nasser Hussain. It's some other guy. Some Yank. Some Yank called Nas.
