Amber Rose SALUTES Spanish Harlem In New "BLACKBOOK" Spread + Nas Holds Kelis' "Wedding Dress" On "Life Is Good" Album Cover

Jun 04 | by _YBF

Amber Rose paid tribute to Spanish Harlem in a new spread featured in BLACKBOOK's June/July issue. See the pics inside as well as Nas' Life Is Good cover....

On the heels of his much-talked about 2012 Summer Jam performance, Nas has revealed the cover art for his upcoming Life Is Good disc (July 17). And yes, that's Kelis' infamous green wedding dress (or a replica of it) he's holding.

Watch the album's trailer here:

And speaking of New York ish:

As NYC gears up for the 2012 Puerto Rican Day Parade (June 10), Amber Rose paid tribute to the residents of Spanish Harlem in the latest issue of BLACKBOOK.

Amber stars in a David Field-shoot called "A. Rose In Spanish Harlem."

Amber, who recently attended the 2012 MTV Movie Awards with Wiz Khalifa, plays with both the masculine and feminine aspects of her "look" in the spread.

Can you spot Amber? Crazy how she blends in with the fellas.....

How can he when his life and pockets are affected by the messy divorce daily. Try losing everything that you worked hard your entire life to build to a bitter ex who wouldn't stop at nothing to destroy you. She said f*ck him when she took all her shit out the house and left the wedding dress. Right back at you, Kelis!!!!

Good point. So much of his

Good point. So much of his music is about personal experiences and life in general. Hes not like the clockwork rappers who are constantly putting out music because of their young ADHD, ADD, bored easily consumers. He raps when he has something to say. And we can all appreciate that in this music with no purpose thirsty world we live in.

Love Nas.. His music is

Love Nas.. His music is prolific.. He never cease to impress.. The "NYC" track sounds phenomenal, I get joy.. The song "Hip Hop's Dead" is reminicent of my best friend.. When they sang " She's dead, she's dead" because that's what the caller said to me.. I wished it was a nightmare but she was dead.. Music is powerful.. I can't wait to hear the rest.. "Nas is coming." Life is good.. With LOVE 365..

I am not even close to a fan

I am not even close to a fan or AR but I think this spread is nice! There's a substantial proportion of the population who don't feel the need to place themselves in a categorical box just to make others feel more comfortable with themselves. Just because the men aren't hyper masculine doesn't mean they are gay and the same goes for AR...kudos to her. <3 Nas

I can't believe all the nasty

I can't believe all the nasty comments regarding Amber. I thought the spread was pretty hot. I don't think you have to be from that culture to be expressive. She did a great job and she is not trying to just walk along the side or behind Wiz, she is looking to make herself marketable and she is doing a great job. Yes, Kanye brought her to the attention of others but its up to her to do something with it and obvious Kanye was her hold back. Wiz and Amber are a good match. Naz, love the album cover, it speaks volumes.

Awww @ Nas' cover. Men have feelings too...I just like that he's grown enough to show them. It's obvious he still has feelings for her from his interviews. I salute him for that. That's real. Amber's spread is actually nice. Not just tits and ass but a real shoot.
