Featured Album: Nas is Back and has one black rose for Hip Hop

Hip Hop is Dead, due out Decemeber 19th, will be Nas’s eighth album release of original material.

Umm…so where is the Hip Hop is Dead website. Kanye has one, Jay has four, Jeezy has one, and uh we here at Defuse News figured that since you know Nas is a sorta big hip hop notable artist that maybe this album would have a site?

Especially since Columbia Records and Def Jam are co-financing the album.

Anyone have an answer?
