The average person? There was plenty of stories on more newspapers than Beanie Sigel has every featured on about Jay-z writing letters to judges asking if they can release a guy who ran a drug ring. He's an executive at roc-a-wear now.
Jeezy not bad rep? People claim that he was a member of one of the biggest drug cartels in the US during the 2000s.
He has been mentioned in murder cases, cocaine cases and is known as a former drug dealer. This is the person Jay-z chose to celebrate the inauguration with right after he'd been to the actual inauguration with the president.
I don't think he gives two fukk about it, I can keep on mentioning more cats if you want to.
One cat who actually raps but is completely unknown for rapping and more for robbing people, stabbing people, shooting at people etc is..
