Last month, it was revealed that MC Serch of 3rd Bass had plans on selling his portion of Nas’ catalog, including ‘Illmatic.’ Nas recently dropped his latest album ‘King’s Disease III,’ and seemingly addressed the move by Serch on the song “WTF SMH.”
Nas rapped: “Peace to MC Serch, how much the catalog worth? I made it so many can have a piece of what I earn… Push it to the max, now it’s maximum returns.” Since then, Serch has responded.
Via a statement to AllHipHop, Serch said, “It was more than just Nas’ comment about me on his album—it has been one of the best weeks of my life.” He continued saying, “Having Eminem mention every group I was ever involved in, executive produced, discovered, and recorded within his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame speech to celebrating 11 years of recovery to Nas honoring our relationship, it has been the best week or at least one of the best weeks of my professional career. ”
Serch concluded his response to Nas, saying “I am flattered that Nas recognizes and sees,” Serch continued. “I am glad Nas sees that I was someone who had integrity and character and that I was able to show him by my actions in deeds that whatever I receive from my share of my portion of the catalog, I earned it. Thank you Nas for allowing me to be a small part of your history.”
