Nas Boycotts Hot 97’s Summer Jam & Faces Blacklisting
Nas was the headliner at Hot 97’s Summer Jam, the yearly concert in which Jay-Z started the fued between the two by unleashing “Takeover”, a Mobb Deep/Nas diss track produced by Kanye West, sampling The Doors. Nas apparently had an argument with Summer Jam organizers because they would not let him play or perform some Jay-Z diss. When he was denied, he decided he “wouldnt sell out”, and he boycotted the concert. Today on 107.5 (a rival to hot 97), on the controversial gossip’s show, The Wendy Williams Show, Nas called in and called out Hot 97 for selling out and dissed Angie Martinez and Funkmaster Flex. Now, unconfirmed word is that Hot 97 has (possibly temporarily) blacklisted Nas’s Music.
