Nas Addresses Whether JAY-Z Purposely Drops Music On His Release days

JAY-Z surprised dropped his new track with Pharrell, Entrepreneur, on the same day Nas's new album King's Disease dropped.

It's not the first time he's done such a thing.  During Nas's Breakfast Club interview, he was asked if Hov is going out of his way to screw him, perhaps due to long-simmering "Ether" issues.

"No, I think maybe there's an energy that we both have where maybe we work around the same time," Nas started.

Then DJ Envy brought up all the times JAY-Z jumped on his release date.

"That's a hell of a coincidence," said Nas, surprised.
