Nas recently visited the House of Blues in San Diego and said he was treated like a terrorist.  Was it racially motivated?  He had this to say:

“There is no other side of the story. We were treated like terrorist. We had a whole bunch of security guys rush outside to me and my wife like we were terrorists. Its not like I came with 50 guys or nothing. It was just me, my wife, my DJ and my staff for the ‘Hip-Hop Is Dead” tour and they came at us like we was Osama Bin Laden or somebody,” Nas lamented on air….”Anybody that tolerates [racism] is a sucker in my book,” Nas concluded. “All of that gotta stop.”

Interesting, House of Blues is usually kind to the colored. They even let us use the whites only water fountain on Fridays. Come on Nas…wake up. This is how it is bro. Whether you’re over reacting to the situation or not…the fact remains that Racism is alive and well. Don’t be shocked when you see it. I didn’t see anything in that quote about what YOU did.
