Nas recently released his new EP 'Days Before Dreamboy', and insisted he wanted his current "era" to be focused on being true to himself.

He told PEOPLE magazine: "I wanna be myself more than ever this era. I want to be completely free out there, only doing the things that I wanna do.

"If I do not want to do it, I'm not doing it ... If I don't want be there, I'm not gonna be there.

"I think it's more important than ever to really stand in myself and my power and recognise where I'm taking my energy and where I don't want to take it."
