Kelis Talks Nas's "Life Is Good" Album Cover [VIDEO]


Nas has made no secret that his split from ex-wife Kelis is a major theme in his upcoming album Life Is Good. On his Behind The Music episode he spoke on the pain he felt when Kelis left her wedding dress behind, and he even holds the dress on the cover for the album.

NME TV caught up with Kelis at the Isle of Wright Festival in England where she spoke on the Life Is Good cover.
“My feelings about it are not really relevant, but you know at the end of the day Nas is an artist. And for whatever it’s worth he’s one of the greatest, and especially for what it is he does. So for me, I feel like especially for someone in hip-hop to kind of be genuine and honest, whatever the honesty is about, I think it’s awesome. So my feelings about it aren’t really necessarily valid, it’s just the fact that as an artist I can respect that he wears his feelings on his sleeve.”
