| has gloss | eng: The Jay-Z vs. Nas feud was a hip-hop rivalry during the early-2000s. One of the most high-profile feuds in the history of hip-hop music, it was characterized by comments (both on- and off-record), figuratively as well as literally, between Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter and Nasir "Nas" Jones from 2001 until resolved in 2005. The conflict received public attention owing to the critically and commercially successful nature of both artists, and is one of the most contested feuds in hip hop popular culture, especially after the aftermath of the East Coast and West Coast Hip-Hop rivalry of the 1990s. |
