- God's Son is the sixth studio album by hip hop rapper Nas, released December 13, 2002 on the Columbia-imprint label Ill Will Records. Production was handled by several hip hop producers, including Salaam Remi and The Alchemist. God's Son has been recognized as a personal album by Nas, in which he covers lyrical themes ranging from religion and violence to youth and his own emotional experiences. It was partly inspired by Nas' mother, Ann Jones, who died of breast cancer in early 2002. Multiple songs on the album reference Jones, while the song "Dance" is a direct tribute to her. In addition, Nas was nearing the end of his feud with Jay-Z at the time, which also inspired the album's emotional and personal feel. Upon its release, God's Son reached number 12 on the Billboard 200 chart, and its three singles achieved a considerable amount of success. It also garnered universal acclaim from writers and music critics, earning praise for Nas's lyrical ability, despite some criticism as to the album's production. While some compared it to his landmark debut Illmatic (1994), music writers also praised God's Son for exhibiting a maturity and lyrical progression by Nas. On January 14, 2003, the album was certified platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), following sales in excess of one million copies.
- God's Son ist das sechste Album des Rappers Nas. Es wurde im Dezember 2002 veröffentlicht und beinhaltet unter anderem die Singles „Made You Look“, „Get Down“ und „I Can“, ein Lied, dessen Melodie auf Beethovens „Für Elise“ aufgebaut ist. Vom Time Magazine wurde God's Son zum besten Hip-Hop-Album des Jahres 2002 ernannt. Nas widmete das Album seiner Mutter Ann Jones, die im April 2002 nach einer zweijährigen Chemotherapie an Brustkrebs starb. Anschließend ging Nas „energiegeladen“ ins Studio, um neue Lieder für God's Son aufzunehmen. (Ein Ausschnitt aus „Dance“) Den Titel wählte Nas aus Respekt an seine Mutter. God's Son wird als Nas persönlichstes Album bezeichnet, da sehr viele Details aus seinem Privatleben preisgegeben werden. Nas selbst erzählt das er in diesem Abschnitt seines Lebens sehr viele Erfahrungen gesammelt hat die ihn reifer und stärker haben werden lassen. Er hat sich viel mehr auf Gefühle, Geist und Seele konzentriert anstatt auf Materielle Dinge und möchte dieses Wissen mit seinen Zuhörern teilen. God's Son stieg auf Platz #12 der amerikanischen Album Charts ein und wurde am 14. Januar 2003 mit 1 Mio. verkauften Tonträgern mit Platin verifiziert. In Deutschland konnte sich God's Son zwei Wochen in den Album-Charts halten. Dabei belegte der Tonträger die Positionen 89 und 91. Die erste Single „Made You Look“ soll eine Art New Yorker Straßenhymne sein. Das Musikvideo dazu wurde in den Stadtteilen Queens, Bronx und im bekannten Rucker Park in Harlem gedreht.
- God's Son on hip hop-artisti Nasin kuudes studioalbumi, joka julkaistiin vuonna 2002. God’s Son oli kaupallinen menestys kivutessaan julkaisuviikollaan kahdenneksitoista Billboardin albumilistalla ja rikkoen platinalevyn rajan kuukaudessa. Myös kaikki albumin singlelohkaisut menestyivät listoilla. Levyn tunnetuin kappale lienee Beethovenin Für Eliseä lainaava ”I Can”, joka on sekä sosio-poliittisesti kantaaottava kappale, että ennen kaikkea gettolapsille suunnattu kannustuslaulu. Albumi on kunnianosoitus Nasirin äidille, Ann Jonesille, joka kuoli rintasyöpään vuoden 2002 alkupuoliskolla. Nimen lisäksi monet kappaleet sisältävät suoria viittauksia häneen ja kolmastoista kappale ”Dance” on suora tribuutti Annille.
- God's Son est le sixième album de Nas, sorti en 2002. Cet album contient un remix de Tupac (Thugz Mansion), ainsi que le single I Can. A noter que le producteur 9th Wonder a sorti un album remix du God's Son, intitulé God's Stepson.
- God's Son è il nono disco solista e settimo disco di inediti di Nas.
- God's Son este al saselea album de studio al lui Nas. Albumul a fost lansat pe 13 decembrie 2002. A ajuns pana pe locul 12 in Billboard 200 si a primit un disc de platina de la RIAA la o luna dupa lansare. Albumul a fost partial inspirat de mama lui Nas, Ann Jones, care a murit de cancer la san in 2002. Multe melodii, ca "Warrior Song", se refera la Ann Jones, dar melodia "Dance" ii este dedicata in mod direct. In plus, Nas se afla la sfaristul neintelegrilor sale cu Jay-z, lucru ce l-a inspirat emotional.
