Nas Writes To The Killers Of Derrion Albert




Whenever I think of what happened in this video, I freeze and I begin to think, why are we killing our self’s. It’s getting to a point of us not dying from natural causes or things like AIDs we are dying at the hands of each other for the wrong reason. But then again is there ever a right reason for us killing each other. There’s some much trouble and racism going on in this world and we want to add to it by killing our own people just to prove a point. I wish people would grow up and see that this is not the answer to making things better.
AND ANOTHER THING before I get to Nas’s letter, those people that just stood there and let him get beat to death [literally] are just as bad as the people who did it damn it. If that’s your friend why would you just stand there and let him get beat like that, do something, go find help, don’t just stand there and watch. I don’t know what its going to take for people to understand that all this violence is doing is hurting us more in the end. We are already hurting as a people why make it worse by adding unneeded violence and killing. I don’t understand it and I never will.

SMH, well Nas decided to step up and write a letter to the dumb asses that was involved in this big mess, check it out below:

Dear Young Warriors fighting the wrong wars! Killing each other is definitely played out. Being hurt from the lost of a love one was never cool.

Dear Young Warriors fighting the wrong war! I know that feeling, that frustration with life and needing to take it out on someone, any one. But....

We chose the dumbest things to go the hardest for. I remember seeing deaths over 8 ball jackets, Fila sneakers, and name plate chains. Deaths over "he say, she say"!!!!! "I'm from this block or I'm from that block", or "my moms n pops is f*cked up now the whole world gotta pay"!!!

I remember feeling like I was the hardest "n*gga" breathing. And I couldn't wait to prove it. But let's think. What are we really proving?? And proving what to who?? Everybody knows Chicago breeds the strongest of the strong but I just feel, me, being ya brother from another state feels your pain as if I grew up with you in ya very own household.

You have the ability and mindpower to change they way we are looked at. Look who's watching us young warriors, look who's throwing us in jail constantly, look at the ignorance in the world. Look at the racist dogs who love to see us down. Loving to bury us in the ground or in jail where we continue this worthless war on one another.

Young warriors.... We are WASTING more and more time. We gotta get on our jobs and take over the world. Cuz this movie left the theaters years ago, Juice, Menace, Boys n the Hood , Blood n Blood Out, Belly!

When we see each other why do we see hatred? Why were we born in a storm, born soldiers, WARRIORS....and instead of building each other up we are at war with each other.. May the soul of this young person find peace with the almighty. I'm with you young warriors. You're me and I'm you. But trust me! you are fighting the wrong war.
