Look, I'm one of the biggest jigga stans there is but even I can admit that this dude was INCREDIBLY lucky to be in close proximity to two of the biggest pop stars we've ever seen. The last 12 years or so he has Kanye and Beyonce to thank for maintaining his relevancy, because nobody gives a fukk about magna carter and he basically rode that legendary Lemonade wave with 4:44. Besides attaching himself to those two the demand for him by himself just isn't there like that when you really think about it. Nobody is clamoring for another Jay-Z album.

I mean, I'd welcome another one but the public as a whole? I'm honestly not sure.
If beyonce is “maintaining his relevancy” why did the album he did with her bomb :mjlol:

Why is the lowest selling album of his career :mjlol:

Nobody cared about Magna Carter but it’s triple platinum :mjlol:

Beyonce is allegedly carrying him but the whole album he did with beyonce bombed and did worst than all the other Jay Z albums:mjlol:

50 admires Jay.. he has a weird way of saying it, but read in between the lines.

Jay made alot of moves outside of rap that propelled his success which is exactly what 50 is trying to do.

The Eminenm / superbowl situation is the 3rd time he brought this up. Sure Eminem wanted you there, but who masterminded it with Goddell?..Jay

50 wants the awards and wants to be able to make power moves.....period

This isn’t true. The Blueprint 3 won rap album of the year but the overall argument is foolish because most rap Grammy wins are for collaborations because the Grammys don’t respect hip hop. You’re only seeing the change now because they separated out pop rap acts from traditional rap. This overtime message board fans and people on Twitter go to try to dissect Jay’s career is weird. Like I fukk with you, but you guys know most people think this shyt is weird? If you don’t know that then you’re hanging around with people who share your beliefs. 98 percent of people would just call you a hater. All these other rappers did collaborations, why didn’t they win?

Jay Z post 03 retirement when he was previously always losing to white boy Eminem put American Gangster which was going to lose everything to the Carter III. The Blueprint 3, which would’ve been a hit without or with Alicia Keys seeing how Bridget Kelly sounds better singing the song and Alicia flops on her own. WTT - which was him and Kanye combined.

Magna Carta - which didn’t win anything besides the JT collaboration (and maybe Beyonce) in a collaboration category :russ:. And then he didn’t drop an album again until 4:44 where they had him go 0 for 8 against Kendrick in an album entirely about Beyonce. So 50 says they don’t show up unless they’re winning when more often than not he doesn’t win. 50 doesn’t have more Grammys because they had him losing to Evanescence and Outkast when he should’ve swept the Grammys in 04. And 50 is the biggest brown noser for white people, he just admitted his content is why he doesn’t win but Michigan State ass nikkas like @NormanConnors sayint facts :russ:. I feel like my job has become bringing reality.
They have never really been able to explain why her version by herself didn’t do nearly as good as the original with Jay since she is allegedly “carrying” it

The fact that 50 had Eminem & Dr. Dre while Jay did it without those heavyweights shows how bitter he is. He is forever linked to them giving him his shot. And he still can't escape it, he has to make a tour of his best album to remind everyone.

I like 50...but his bitterness stays on display and he has to resort to going to radio stations and podcasts to cosign this stuff

Media having a killing with this. And they feed into it, not a good representation for the 50th year of Hip Hop.
