It’s really not more of a reason to elaborate, NaS speaks for more “ghetto” proverty striken people than Jay will ever speak for,

smh. i didn’t want this.
January 5th, 2010 at 9:17 pm
The Purple Tape? C’mon, there’s only one purple tape!
January 5th, 2010 at 9:17 pm
Seriously, you think Jay could execute those better than Nas? It’s possible he could do something like that, but he never has.
====================================
Jay doesn’t do concepts records well. He lacks the creative vision.
I did like Dopeman & There’s Been A Murder though.
Meet The Parents sucked as did the “water” song from KC.

Word. Pooh kinda played himself.

Big Pooh sounds like something a little kid would say after taking a shit.
“Mommy, I just took a big pooh!”

The Delightful Bars was ill too.

^^
But does Jay even care if people can relate to him anymore? He’s had more number one albums than the Beatles – that’s got to change a man. Don’t be surprised if that nigga buys a chimpanzee, chops and screws his face and moves to a big house in LA. He’s getting to that level…
January 5th, 2010 at 9:21 pm
Jays dope, but the one thing I never got about Jay stans is how they could rationalise the incredible amount of biting (nh) he’s done throughout his career
January 5th, 2010 at 9:21 pm
ain’t nothing cool about carrying a strap, about wearing ya moms, and burying ya best cat, talking about revenge while you carrying his casket, all teary eyed bout to take it to a mattress.

I’m from the ghetto, where old women talk about there suger level
it’s not unusual
IMO. Joe, you forgot about when Jay bet Nas to step in a cipha, put up a mill for a charity of their choice and Nasir shy’d away? Nas needed 4months to come back at Jay, he knew he was gonna get bodied in a cipha..
======================================================

he married to Beyonce… the second I smashed for the first time I don’t know that I’d be concerned if or if not niggas can relate to my shit cuz 9/10 you wont relate to my life so why force it
January 5th, 2010 at 9:22 pm
You know Jay wasn’t gonna battle and risk his career. Neither was Nas. That shit was never gonna go down. That wouldn’t be a good battle anyway. They aren’t punchline dudes, so you would have to listen to the tapes a few times just to decide who won. Can’t really see to many ohhs and ahhs for Jay and Nas.
January 5th, 2010 at 9:23 pm

Nah. I respect what he tried to do, but it wasn’t executed right.

^That’s why Nas has been better than Jay recently. What’s so funny about telling a joke no one can honestly relate too? Jay talks about eating quail muscle, Nas makes “The nigger tape” with green lantern recently, this should be a open & shut case.
I respect Jay’s hustle, and his career, but as far as making songs that was “intentionally” made for middle class and lower, Nas has been doing a much better job than jay since AG.
*Is still a Jay stan prior 2008*
*doesn’t feel guilty*
January 5th, 2010 at 9:26 pm
Water song? What song u mean? minority report?
and I need a cdq version of
15* “44 Fours” (live from Radio City Music Hall) Lou Reed
* “Can I Kick It?” by A Tribe Called Quest
can somebody hook that up? Heard it only came on the vinyl. I heard it on Library of a legend but yea somebody hook it up!
January 5th, 2010 at 9:26 pm

>> Really though, how much biting are we talkn about? Lets leave out the speculatory stuff.. Like that b.s about he took young chris flow..
Most of the lines I heard was paying homage to hiphop poineers but if jay was a nobody rapper no1 will fault him for giving props. Jay E bites Jay and Nas but niggas already hailed him as the Lord of Hosts..

January 5th, 2010 at 9:29 pm
As far as the “biting” thing goes, do you really think Jay is trying to sneak things past you after all of this time??
Has he not proved that he is/was nice already??

@ H1,
stop copn pleas for your boy, Jay said it on live t.v, on the radio and Nas was like Naa.. he ain’t want it with the same nigga that chased LL around for months until he slayed him.. lol
But niggas ain’t mad at nas for depriving hiphop of the most epic live battle ever!!
Joe, jay got way more heartfelt ghetto anthems about the hood condition than nas has ever written, I could make you a list.. lol, seriously though..

New York went completely brain dead when Max B went away…He was the only new nigga with a different sound and a new wave…Jim Jones can’t even survive without him.
^That’s real rap though. Everybody else in NYC sound alike.
You know what’s funny? People might not agree, but the listeners in general seem to be tired of NY’s “sound” (i.e. dialect, accent, etc). This is why everybody tried to take a page out of 50′s book when he dropped GRODT (and even before then on those GUnit mixtapes) because he had some of that Southern verbage and dialect. That’s why I fuck with Philly rappers so heavy because 1.) they never rely heavily on punchlines, and 2.) they got their own sound.
Fans (in general) think it’s the raps, lyricism, etc. holdin’ NY back. Nah. It’s just that niggas is tired of them accents. LOL

I too have experienced this. Word to “What More Can I Say”.

But he did that to drive his point. That song was fu*king EPIC though. Classic.

January 5th, 2010 at 9:41 pm
Joe, jay got way more heartfelt ghetto anthems about the hood condition than nas has ever written, I could make you a list.. lol, seriously though..
^lol, I follow both of there music, and I doubt you can make a list with songs that jay was speaking on others experiences and not himself (hood wise). That’s one of the reason I became a stan of Jay, cause he use to speak on himself in his music, like I said in the previous post, Nas makes music for the people more than Jay does, especially now. Nas recently made “cops keep firing” “Association” “N.I.G.G.E.R” all on the same album, that’s more than jay has done in prolly the last 5 years *straight face* I remember when nahggers use to joke about Jay buying a submarine, just to say he was the first to own one, lol, who can relate to niggas owning yacths and what not? Most of the niggas nas speak to in his music never been on a boat, let alone left there city. Nas is a poet that just so happens to be a great rapper also. Jay is a business man that just so happens to be a great rapper, it’s a slight difference, both are legends, there just different
January 5th, 2010 at 9:41 pm
And I said all of that to say that to back up my cosign with Boosie about Max B having a totally different sound.
Also, rappers who use their voice for more than just rapping (Max B, Wiz Khalifa, Drake, b-ease) are also like to get more followers because they can appeal to both masculine and feminine auras.

i feel where you’re comin from (nah) but…
isnt it good sometimes to ASPIRE to be something.. to look OUTSIDE your current condition to somewhere you WANT to be in life? ionno.. but i LIVE in my current condition wether it be the ghetto or burbs.. we got enough dudes talkin about how they shoot the block up and sell coke
lets get proper perspective is all im sayin
and as far as nas bein for the people.. i think its just another way for him to entertain.. really listen to the music.. is he REALLY inspiring his people.. i dont know of ANYONE that aspires to be nas…
i do know people that say that of jay though…
not pickin sides at all.. just playin the devil’s ad

FTR: Alot of the lines i’ve heard on the cam diss, I already knew who the original author was while listening to Jay spit the lines. (maybe i’m just a super stan)
What’s sad was, Cam made the diss record, then some crazy stan made the reply record with cam quoting rappers lines and half of them was Jay-Z lines. SMh Talking about ethering yourself, you shoot shots at a rapper for stealing, but your stealing his lines, and he’s never quoted you ever, even jim & juelz was on the diss record.
January 5th, 2010 at 9:48 pm

True…this is what I been telling people…But its more of a psychological/sociological issue as well….because music energy confined to a certain area can only last for so long…
New York had a great run but every rapper started sounding the same…and NO generation has liked the exact same music as the previous generation.
“Lyricism” was an era and not the standard/norm…Of course lyrics will always be prevelant but the Scientific lyricism was an era that was prevelant in New York Hip-hop…You’re also right about the accents…because music travels…and cats just started sounding monotonous…The same sound can’t be replicated for years.

I understand what you mean, that’s why I covered my bases (n) when I said
Jay-Z rap career >
But Nas as a flatout rapper >
But I think it’s non-debatable on who speaks to the genreal public more from a outsiders point of view. Jay is good at speaking on his experiences and his life, which is hard to come by in music, but so is someone that can speak from different experiences like Nas can.
I think nahggers really need to listen to the nigger tape again. Masterpiece

^THIS. I been saying this to myself for a while now. And the worst part about it is that New Yorkers are spoiled brat, whiny, sore losers so for the last 5+ years we had to hear them niggas complain. I admit that for a brief period I lumped myself in that elitist bullshit. Then I stepped outside of myself and said, hey, as bammafied and country as some of them niggas are, that’s REALLY who they are. You can’t change a region. With that being said, some dope ass Southern MC’s have emerged in the past few years, to my surprise.

If you bring up the biting thing….that’s an emotional based argument…because Jay has been the most bitten rapper in history..
T.I. and Lil wayne bit jay too? but do people accuse them?
Everyone one has influences….people use trivial/irrelevant arguments to try to refute claims….
You can have a legitimate nas vs. jay argument…but the whole nas took someone else’s words and jay biting is senseless.

I think that will be the day that I’ll be officially through with Hip-Hop.
At least to a degree. I mean, after Jay, Nas, KRS, Em, etc. are gone who are we supposed to turn to??
This generation??!! To fill THOSE shoes??!! Ha!!

When the last time you heard Jay-Z rap like a straight up Brooklyn nigga on a hit record? Think about it.
==================================
And that’s my prob with Jay. He’s moved so far up the ladder that he has no idea what’s going on with the common folk, nor does he care.
Rappers speak for the people and Jay stopped speaking for me around the Black Album.
^Cosign. After BA, I felt like I was out the loop or some shit. I didn’t wanna blame it on the age thing because dope is dope at any age. I just felt like I just can’t relate. Or he just stopped trying. Probably a combo of both.
^
see, this is where i think people start to blurr the line with reality and entertainment.. wtf does ANYBODY that dont personally KNOW my struggle have to say about me? how do they relate to me.. lets be real NONE OF THESE RAPPERS GIVE A FUCK ABOUT YOU.. straight up.. these niggas dont speak for you.. they dont..
and ill be DAMNED if i want them to… its entertainment.. this is not civil rights.. or equality.. its not that anymore.. its 2010.. non of that shit applies..

Obviouly a Jay-Z apologist lol.
These rappers (at least the ones who are really worth something) are supposed to comment on the many different shades of the black experience. Jay used to do that to some degree but now days that part of his persona is dead and gone. Jay-Z is all about ME, ME, ME, ME!

That break between The Black Album & Kingdom Come did alot of damage.
^THIS.COM
Son, do you know how much I hated hiphop between that time period? Real rap, I went sooooo underground fam you wouldn’t believe it. I bought all of Jean Grae albums (and mixtapes), was going to every Roots and Raheem Devaughn show, rockin’ trucker jackets and tees with them retarded sayings on ‘em. Fuckin’ with bohemian broads real heavy. ANNNND, that’s when my hate for Wayne started. Because he said he was the greatest rapper alive since the greatest rapper tired. I was like, who the fuck is THIS nigga? Did he not see Jay fade-away with the jumper with the Black Album (and accompanied movie, where I almost cried in the damn theater but that’s another story, lol). Then this Camel faced nigga came back with sampling Rump Shaker and I was like, you know what? Fuck it. He gave up, and so do I. Started giving Southern rap a try and slowly stopped having general disdain. Jim Jones then proceeded to be the trend setter in fashion, charisma, and music (thanks to Max, Stack Bundles, etc). The rest is history.
And pardon my tangent, but I’ve been dying to get that off my chest. Because that is LITERALLY the exact damn time period that I thought when hiphop went too far.

^Nah, I stopped fuckin’ with him because I just wasn’t feelin’ it. Money got boring to me. Like, we already go the new coke rappers (from the South) so we good on that. Therefore he didn’t have a lane anymore so his lack of creativity did him in, IMO. So why wait for him to drop somethin’ that’s groundbreaking? Too many new artists I can listen to.

You took it too far because just because it’s 2010 that doesn’t mean that the struggle has stopped. And I’m not talkin’ about Jay in particular, I’m talkin’ about society in general. We will ALWAYS need that kinda music, regardless of which rapper it comes from or where he’s from.
Like I said, he don’t have to rap about the struggle anymore, but he needs to step out the box.

Those songs shoulda been the tentpoles (Ayo?) for the album but after 808′s Jay saw the popularity of the hipster/techno trend/style & thought he could jump on and act like he innovated it.
And for the most part, he won with it.
That album is barely listenable to me though. I’d rather listen to AG.

Though dope, I thought the real reason he went in that direction was because he felt like he couldn’t put up KC numbers again at the time so he did a “concept” album that he did not promote so it would be a guaranteed win and wouldn’t be expected to fail in the eyes of the public because in their eyes it would be something that “wasn’t intended to be commercial”.
Just a thought.

DMX has some nerve to call jay evil, who had more of an evil aura than X, I mean just peep FOMF-BOMB cover.. nigga was drenched in blood, fuck type of ritual is that? the real devil is theseidiots trying to convince poor black folk that there is no success other than committing to baphomet/illuminati, masonry etc. X says a prayer on his album right b4 smoking crack, but niggas take his words for truth.

Still, I liked the direction of AG.
Another thing, anyone really pay attention to that Timbaland video? Jay’s doing to Tim what he did to Just Blaze & Ski before him. Phasing them out. Tim was damn near begging for Jay to do an album with him and I don’t see why Jay wouldn’t. But for Hov it’s always been on to the next one. And he rarely looks back.

the goat of mass murder, kind of.
but that’s neither here or there, jay goes talked about on this website at least 5 times a day. if you can find another rapper who has more #1 albums than the fucking beatles, please show me. that’s godly status, not just as a rapper but as a musician. no one sells like that anymore, but jay does.
you guys want to hate a guys hustle and say he isn’t down with the culture because he’s not still saying fuck the system, because he runs the system. i know each and everyone of you would too. why do you think eskay stans so hard for jigga — because he’s trying do to the same thing. make money off that boom bap.

People keep talking about Picasso but he isn’t the GOAT artist. Sometimes I think Pac is the GOAT rapper and as an artist he was said to be ahead of his time but then he died, and even though he had a bunch of leftovers, as an artist who died before he could improve I now refuse to believe Pac is the best because he never got the chance to become better. All I heard was that he was planning for better music but I think his music before he died was better than the stuff after. Same goes for Biggie. I can’t never say Jay is the ultimate GOAT number 1 but he is definitely in top 10 btw.
January 5th, 2010 at 11:03 pm

January 5th, 2010 at 11:06 pm
The problem is niggaz have really gotten ridiculous with this money stuff. What correlation does a #1 album have on the quality of your work? Vanilla Ice and Hammer REALLY came out in the wrong generation. As impressive as the #1 albums thing is…what does that mean?If Eminem released a cd every year since he came out would he really be that far behind? Didn’t compilation garbage Shady put out like two years ago go plat? Whats the point? Mariah has more number 1 singles than any female in history but would an educated person tell you Mariah Carey>>Aretha Franklin, Mariah Carey>>Whitney Houston ? I think that being that rap generally revolves around monetary things and most niggaz nowadays really spend their careers faking it that Jay really means a lot to people
January 5th, 2010 at 11:09 pm
@BK
good points but jay has the numbers AND the catalog… thats why his stans defend him so tough
its not like he doesnt have undeniable classical material.. and more than ONE album.. in hiphop, which believe it or not is a very young genre, that is huge… so yeah hes the best… or according to most.. thats how they look at it..
he is the mike jordan of rap.. 6 rings, stats and fame…

So is Jay’s fame what determines him as the best? It isn’t as if any of Jay’s CDs considered the greatest ever. You put Ice Cubes top 3, Pac’s top 3, Nas top 3, Scarface top 3 and Jay’s top 3 lps together does Jay win hands down? Em certainly has the numbers and despite what you may feel about him obviously his fans would vouch for his top 3 lp’s as well. Jay has done an excellent job of brainwashing niggaz

Mao killed millions more than Hitler. Ive seen figures from 30 to 70 million. The figures are difficult to calculate though because he mostly did it through mass starvations (Great Leap Forward)…

I find that hard to believe. It goes Jimmy, Dre, Em, and than 50 at Interscope. 50 is not only part of the system but has his own empire in this broad and complex system. Also even though people are downloading music illegally and that might seem like a rebel and anti-corporate thing to do people are still following the top labels artists and being brainwashed. How is it that some white Taylor Swift looking chick who apparently raps is number one on itunes? why top radio stations who are a part of the cultures history are playing that song? The labels or system have taken over most this.

Lol….I don’t think History is some of ya’ll dudes best subjects…Hitler is certainly not the first to want to take over the world…even if that was his goal…which he knew was unattainable.
There’s plenty of dictators who wanted to take over the world…Hell the great Alexander the Great is Praised for his conquest…He literally wanted a global takeover. Even Before that, Xerxes wanted everyone to bow before him.
This has been going on since the beginning of time…Global takeover is nothing new.

I don’t understand what selling out means when I rap with folks online, seriously?
What is the real difference between Jay and Fif when it comes to business mindset? One nigga will sell anything including dildos, how that uplifts the culture or supports it IDK,
The other will hang with uppity Jews so he can be in on where the cash is at.
Selling out is refuting your blackness or race for that matter, or talking down about the hood or trying to erase where you come from. Or living contrary to who you are..
January 5th, 2010 at 11:31 pm

Amp, don’t forget Fif plays real nice with whitey or corporate world, then comes right back to the hood radio and does some hood things to make ppl believe he’s still the kid from queens.. He probably employs more white people than Jay does, all his ventures been with some white dude or company… Not that there’s nothing wrong with that but he likes to play on public opinion b’cos he truely believes the public is dumb enough to buy into these antics.. those were his words in transcription..
50 says hov sold out for going on Oprah, he does a gig with bootleg Oprah
50 critisizes A.Keys and rules her out, wants to work with Susan Boyle
50 tours all the same shows in europe as jay did, flops and doesn’t bring up his international numbers as he usually does!
50′s 1st single is str8 coonery aimed at radio claims album is non-pop. DOA at least shook the game up.. 50 be lying yo..

Its not no mc 1,2 1,2 shit its real nigga shit. Made by a real artist so check my resume. Fuck all the co signs you tube video back pack following and soul beat propaganda. Lets throw all that shit away and listen to the lyrics and the flows and fuck the dj’s and features ,blogs ,labels major and independent to. Lets listen to the words. From what i understand Black Milk put these beats up for free download (beats in the color purple). Meaning anybody could download spit, sing, or shit on those beats. Me I did me I painted a picture of my life. So if any body got complaints on how i used it or what i did with them SAY NAMES
fuck the subliminals . Raekwon Originally called the Cuban Links The Purple Tape. I don’t call mines that at all. Why? First of all its a cd so its no way i could call it that. Cuban Linx cameout when cassete tape was still poppin. And was purple thats why they call it the purple tape. I like little brother and Pooh and respect what they do THEY DOPE. But like i said I put MY LIFE ,SOUL, HEART, PEACE AND REPUTATION ON THE LINE FOR THIS SO ITS ALL GOOD HOWEVER IT PANS OUT. YEAH AND I WROTE THIS COMMENT SO WHAT!
