Nas comments stem from his 2002 infamous interview when he blasted the radio, new popular MCs (Nelly, Dipset) and the hip hop audience. This is on youtube. Ever since then, he's been questioned about that and he has said he regretted it. He has clearly understood since to support new artists (no matter how crap they are) as it's part of the hip hop movement. Not to mention he had to go through pissing off everyone in the hip hop community with Hip hop is dead.
It's sad that he has to hold back, but I think he has bigger fish to fry in terms of social struggles and problems, he has to pick his battles, no time going at the crap MC's when there is other things to concentrate on.
Well put.
I must note though, I'd LOVE a Frank Ocean feature on the album.
