Al Sharpton has gone on record to applaud the National Action Network’s Decency Initiative for playing a role in motivating Nas to change his album title. As of May 19, Nasir confirmed his decision to change his "Nigger" album to Untitled.

"Clearly, putting their focus and pressure on the companies and not engaging in a fruitless pursuit of chasing a never ending and ever changing roster of artists has proven to be smart," Rev. Sharpton said in a statement. "The record companies and retailers have the power as this Nas matter shows. Had not the [NAN's] Decency Initiative and other groups put the pressure on, this change of title on Nas' album would never had been a corporate concern."

Prior to the name removal, "Nigger" drew a lot of reactions from fans as well as celebrities, leaders, and retailers who were kind of "iffy" about putting the album on their shelves. Good luck Nas, you stand out in our circle of artists. I really hope this album provides us with the same quality music you always put out.

"You have been blessed with the grace of the Panther"
