jeez eskay is just shittin out psots today…what you got a quota to keep up with?!…
a interview with those Cappacino dudes…The Knux.
DX: Given Interscope’s track record, are you surprised that they let you get away with that?
KK: Nah, ‘cause we got balls. I don’t know if you knew, but before this we had a deal with Matthew Knowles. He was our manager and it was like a big “Unsigned Hype†thing going on. This is how we beat them. All these Hip Hop artists always ask for more money. We didn’t ask for more money, but we did ask for all the control. We said, “Give us our own imprint deal over here, and give us all the control. We don’t want nobody telling us anything, and we’ll turn the songs in when we turn them in.†They said, “Oh, okay. Y’all don’t want more money? Alright, we’ll do that.†A lot of artists don’t get control because they want too much money up front. You’re gonna eventually get the money if you make a good album.
RA: Yeah, if you don’t ask for $10 million up front they won’t be all up in your shit. I know if I gave somebody that type of money I’d be like, “Hey, what’s the first single?†I’d be all up in their shit and make sure that I at least got my money back.
—thats some smart ish right there…

>>All I’m saying is.. Jay..do some shit for your people. You can’t see the snakery in a grown man that rushes an album to market to coincide with a movie that depicts Frank Lucas as some kind of icon in black history meanwhile Obama been running for president for 18 months and I aint heard 18 words from Jay about none of that shit.

^^^Adds that to the pic of Jay handing out turkeys in Marcy
I just youtubed Jayz + Obama 447 searches came back the first 4 are all the same 20 second clip of Jay yelling “Fuck Bush..yes we can”….wow you really proving me to be wrong..Jay is cosigning Obama heavy.
*releases sarcasm lever*
The rest of the clips don’t have much to do with Jay per se..just rap in general.

Ya I met killa army in ’99 along with Wu-Gambinos ….. Hell Razah dropped a dope album last year
April 3rd, 2008 at 1:02 pm
Yo es, that Jay Z clip about Obama…..that shows how much power someone like Jay Z has. I am not one that will do something just because an artist says to do it, but the reaction of the crowd said a lot.
I wonder what sort of agreement Jay and Obama have?! Really….we’ve all heard Obama speak well about Jigga. I’m sure that’s a “you scratch my back, I scratch yours….no homo” type of situation.
I wonder what Jigga’s gonna get in return….or what the plan is.
