Chuck D responds to what Jim Jones said about Nas on the Breakfast Club

[TripleAgent]

What humans are listening to Jim Jones ??

 

[Piff Perkins]

Put it like this a new Jay album first week is out selling all 6 of them Nas albums combined first week. YNs will listen to his album out of curiosity. While Nas stans have to pay youtubers with 1000 subs just to pretend they like Al jarreu lol

They aren’t even curious fam. And even if they were that wouldn’t sustain the streams. I actually think Hov would hit 100k first week, just that it would be older people streaming/buying.

These kids don’t know what happened 3 years ago and don’t care. Much less 20+ years ago.

Why do yall keep talking about some damn kids. He don’t need no damn kids

No jay solo has sold less than 350k first week since 1998

His last solo went double platinum.

Didnt even have a first week since it was exclusive to Tidal and gave away 1 million for free

2nd week sold 262k with no spotify

There has never been a “free” jay z album ever. Jay has never debut a album on spotify

Being called the oldest YN ain't a compliment

It’s really not and it would be one thing if Jim’s physical appear at least looked like someone who cared but you always get the vibe of someone who woke up 12 mins ago, is still groggy but has an attitude about everything.

Basically everyone Dipset related except Cam is delusional about how long and impactful their run is.

That Art of Dialogue interview showed that Juelz mentally lives in another dimension.

Jim wants to be A Boogie, treated like a bad bĩtch on some Ice Spice shĩt and “respected” like Rich Porter and Alpo and whatever other hustler old heads from Harlem romanticize

I haven't been to NYC in 4 years. Is Jim Jones the voice of present day NYC music?

@spliz @KnickstapeCity Jim the GOAT of NYC music in 2025???

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

Chuck D is unfortunately a rare breed in rap. So many rappers in their 30s 40s want to act and appeal to late teens and early 20 year olds. Peter Pan syndrome

No it wasn’t lol

Magna Carta sold 500k first week after giving away 1 million before release
