Nas' new album isn't the only one hip-hop album forced to make a name change.

Here are ten more over at The Rap Up:

 ....

4. Gravediggaz - 6 Feet Deep (1994)
>>Original Title: Niggamortis

Here’s pure proof of our long-running obsession with political correctness: While Gravediggaz met a blockade here in the U.S., they successfully released Niggarmortis overseas with the OG title intact.

 

5. Beastie Boys - Licensed to Ill

>>Original Title: Don’t Be A Faggot (1986)
Ahh, the much ballyhooed slur “faggot.” The mighty mighty word that has slayed everyone from Isiaha Washington to Ann Coulter. Though the origin of the word “faggot” dates as far back as 1914, it was still considered a pejorative term in 1986. Can you imagine what the reaction would be if Beastie Boys attempted to name their album Don’t Be A Faggot today?
