Nas plans to publish a memoir next year

Nas has already made what many consider to be the best hip-hop album ever with Illmatic. Now the rapper will attempt to write one of the best books about the genre with It Ain’t Hard To Tell, a memoir that is scheduled to be released in fall 2012. The book is co-written by Rolling Stone’s Touré, who announced over Twitter yesterday that the book will make "hip-hop history.” It Ain’t Hard To Tell will cover Nas’ life, as well as “deconstruct” his songs.
