What nobody seems to understand here is that hip hop eats its own. How is it that rock and roll companies treat their older artists like gods and hip hop companies shit on their founders. Companies like Def Jam only want to put money behind the current or next hottest thing. I believe that LL is trying to make a point. There is no real future for hip hop artists. Most have two to three hot albums and that’s it. What is happening to LL and Method Man will happen to most of the hot artists who are currently on Def Jam. I don’t think its that they are putting out garbage albums, its just that Def Jam is only willing to put money behind the hot new kid on the block until his albums don’t go platinum. Guys like Big Daddy Kane, Kool G. Rap, Rakim and LL, should be able to make money in their later years like the Rolling Stones or Metalica. They deserve the proper backing and record promotion from record companies. LL should be mad because how are you calling yourself president of a company and promoting your own album. How can you possibly run a company and tour and fulfill your duties as president at the same time, unless that was part of the deal when you took the job. The truth is that Jay Z is only doing what Def Jam is telling him to do but he does have a duty to speak up for the companies employees. He is part of the problem. He is only looking out for himself. Its like a person who works for a company all his life being given a cheap ass timex when they retire even though ge helped to build the company into what it is today. Ten years from now this new generation will be called old school and wondering where their favorite rapper went but he will probably be touring off of his old material to survive instead of making new albums like LL continues to do. And by the way, everyone knows that most of these platinum albums are garbage anyhow but they still get promotion. LL should leave Def Jam and go independent. Hip Hop lost its soul a long time ago.

LL would murk Jay-Z just like Nas did. Jay-Z needs to get his ass out of the tub, he is washed up. LL is a legend, Jay-Z is the president of the copy he pretty built with thelp of Run DMC and Beastie Boys. He needs to stay in his lane.

Don’t Believe The Hype - phrase made popular by Public Enemy (for you people that same to confuse record sales with skills. Jay is tight, but LL would rip Jay Z in a battle. KRS would rip Jay Z in a battle. Nas ripped Jay in a battle. I like Jay, but he is a commercial Lyricist. LL, KRS, Nas and others are those backpack lyricists that grew up in the culture; they eat, sleep and shit Hip-Hop. Jay was a hype man who got popular by copying BIG. Def Jam Record has never treated their legends with respect. It was LL’s success that made Def Jam. Shit, they even dropped Public Enemy back in the 90’s after 4 consecutive classics.

As for Jae-Hood, he looks real silly right now because he ran around shouting D-Block since like 99 and has nothing to show for it. It’s your fault homie.

Heres the difference.. Jay Hood is a nobody, LL is a icon, a legend, a pioneer, a trendsetter.. As much as I am not a fan of his musik any longer, his history is undeniable. Jay owes a percentage of his success to LL and the other pioneers who set the table for him. True story.

^^ cosign e-dubbs. I dunno what got into eskay with that post commentary…he obviously is not thinking right.. or he started listening to hiphop in 1996 when jay-z dropped reasonable doubt.. lol.

eskay you defend Jay-Z with your life.. to the point where it’s just lame.

LL Cool J’s case is NOT the same deal as J-Hood.
LL Cool J deserves respect, he’s a legend. He literally started Def Jam. You’re blogging like a newbie rap fan with such stupid comments… marketing dollars should be thrown for L.

The old Jay and the washed-up Jay are two very different things. His last real diss was that We Fly High Remix, and that was pathetic.
——

are you stupid? You didn’t listen to the damn lyrics at all did you. “Iâ€™m Ballinâ€™ for real, you pump faking it” and you forget he deaded Cam on ‘dig a hole’, where the hell is Cam and Jim hasn’t had a hit since “we fly high” and he probably won’t have another ever again.

“I guess Men Lie, Women Lieâ€¦
But Numbers Donâ€™t
Its Over for that Ballinâ€™
It My Turnâ€¦
Brooklyn!”

“Your Bank vs Mine, if ya Ballinâ€™
Ni**a what Iâ€™m doing canâ€™t be defined
The Jonesâ€™ canâ€™t keep up
maybe my ni**a Nas
But I got Stronger after Ether (wow!)”

“Bed Stuy, Brownsville, CI
The Best in the Game Since Daddy Kane and B.I.
My Turn, We Live, money to burn ni**a we on Fire
G-Fiver, Ace a Spade make it real easy to book ya babe
Iâ€™m running a Boston on these ni**as
Iâ€™m watching ya soundscan you keep Renigging
Iâ€™m Trump Tight, Trump like
Iâ€™m on my way to a billy I play my cards nice
ni**as like Hov ya sound too Rich
Iâ€™m Like Oh! ainâ€™t that about a bitch
Ainâ€™t that we here for therefore
I sound like I am supposed to sound
Meet me at the Clearport
Iâ€™m Ballinâ€™ for real you pump faking it
Manhattan keep on Faking it Brooklyn Keep on taking it! Yeah!”

Who has Jay murdered? You clearly haven’t been paying attention.

A lot of Jay’s murders have been subliminal…

He bodied Philly’s Most Wanted on ‘Do It Again’. Where are they now? Exactly.

He bodied Mase. I forget the song, but one of the lines was ‘You’ll always be # 2′ (Mase rocked a jersey with # 2 on it as he tapdanced beside Puff, whose jersey had # 1 on it, I believe…LOL).

He massacred P and dude never recovered. It wasn’t just the Summerjam screen, the LYRICS to ‘Takeover’ surgically dismantled P.

Jay’s last fatal dis was ‘Dig A Hole’. Cam dutifully followed the suggestion (kudos to 50 on the helpout).

Y’all think Jay couldn’t murk LL? L only gets to sign to G-Unit if he puts out his last album with Def Jam. All Jay has to do is shelve him and his career’s over. LOL.

On the Forbes 123 remix of “I Get Money”, Hov spits at the end: ‘I’m already the G.O.A.T. / Next stop is the Billy.’ Apparently LL’s feelings got hurt and he’s throwing pity party instead of hitting the studio and making some real hip hop music.

The reason LL gets no promotion is b/c his albums sucks and there are no hits, why would you put out videos for a wack CD when you can spend good money on artists that actually make money. You know Kanye pays for some of his own videos, why didn’t LL do that to promote his? BTW, just b/c you can sell 11 platinum albums to a bunch of girls, doesn’t mean you can hold your own in a battle with Jay.
