Einer Umfrage der New York Press zufolge gehören Jay-Z und Nas zu den 50 unbeliebtesten Menschen in New York. "These endlessly feuding rappers should be merged to form one, giant, illiterate organism called Notorious S.U.C.K. Either that, or they should stop pretending and jump into bed together already. In a naked attempt to recapture the marketing magic of the Tupac-Biggie war—only minus the crowd-pleasing deaths of the principals—the two lackluster rappers spent years trading various asinine threats and insults, culminating in Jay-Z’s inspired crack about leaving "condoms in tha baby seat" and Nas’ passionate cry, "How could Nas be garbage? Semi-autos at your cartilege" ,so das vernichtende Urteil der Zeitung. Jay-Z und Nas befinden sich mit ihrer geringen Beliebtheit aber in bester Gesellschaft. Neben den beiden Rappern stehen Model Naomi Campbell, Woody Allen und Henry Kissinger in den weniger netten Top 50. (RS)
