Nas has changed the name of his next album from “N*gga” to “N*gger,” after being attacked by the media and other organizations, reports Billboard. The rapper says the project will be released Dec. 11 via Def Jam, although that date could not be confirmed with the label at deadline. “You ain’t got no business worrying about what the word ‘n*gger’ is or acting like you know what my album is about without talking to me,” Nas tells MTV.com about the negative response to the album title from public figures such as the Rev. Jesse Jackson. Pop star Prince is being sued in Los Angeles Superior Court by a man who claims he took 12 AVID hard drives without payment.
