Nas has already began working on his follow-up album to the extremely well-received, Life Is Good. 

The album solidified his status, at least to CNN, that he is the greatest lyricist to ever live. Nasir was recently a guest on Hot 97’s Angie Martinez Show. He spoke on the accolade given to him with the “Voice Of New York.”

“I don’t know if I’ve done my best. I think what’s next to come is crazy because the zone I’m in now is so right,” said Nas. “I’m just happy to be in this place to make music. I don’t know what just got into me but I love it. And, I’m a take advantage of the zone I’m in when I’m recording the next record. I feel like Ali.”

Nas also spoke about reconciling with his ex-wife and subject of his hit song “Bye Baby,” Kelis. “We’re back together as friends,” he clarified. “We were not friends. We were not the best friends for a long time. It was crazy. We’re friends now. That’s what it is. We’re not together. We’re friends though.”

Check out the full interview with Hot 97 after the jump where he also speaks on the relationship with his father, Olu Dara.
