Do you think Hov doesn't want to drop another album because he's afraid his sales will brick?

[Hersh]

hov prob got beats from hit.just.timb.pharell.kanye.noid ready to go..

You worrying about sales, while Nas has put out great albums

According to whom

 

[Pop123]

Jayz is really really insanely rich at this point…if sales are even a thought to his 55 year old ass that’s crazy. He’s too old (in a good way) and too rich to not just do what he wants to do…that’s why dudes with that kind of bread and influence disgust me when they don’t do shyt to change the world, I can’t relate.

Give me a tenth of what he has and a tenth of his fame and give me his wife…for her superstardom…I’m gonna assemble the Avengers to pool our resources and change this whole shyt for my people. But back on topic, if sales is something he’s worried about he shouldn’t be…I hope he’d just drop whatever he wants to drop, however he wants to drop it. Nas ain’t trippin off sales because he’s close to 100 M’s at this point I’m sure…Jayz close to like 2 B’s, , come on.

Yall nikkas about to make me defend this nikka. Between this thread and goofy ass boosie thread.


But this thread confirms why I hate nas fans almost as much as I hate 2pac fans.

Every set of fans got the bullshyt. Jay fans was insufferable with the business and Beyoncé shyt for a hot minute. Biggie fans till this day don’t know if they want the nikka to be an innocent naive angel or calculated gangsta who moved in silence. Eminem fans. Well yea. Nuff said. In a Nas fan and I get annoyed with Nas fans. I’m a Pac fan and I get annoyed with some Pac fans as well.

Let Jay-Z retire peacefully. He’s a multi-billionaire now. He no longer needs rap music to fluff his image.

The Carters album flopped...

MCHG came out too early. Maybe if it came out nowadays, it would be more appreciated.

It took some years for folks to appreciate Drill.

That album is trash in ANY era

Jay cares to much about what people think of him. He's very self conscious.
He cant just do something for the love.. It has to have a meaning and purpose behind it

 

[Stick Up Kid]

I dunno I think one of the problems with Nas' recent run is how limited the subject matter is....every song is just some reminiscing shyt about Queens and the industry sprinkled with some money talk. It's getting very tiresome. One album I'd accept it, but 5 albums c'mon now

Jay Z has talked about the same subject matter his whole career… Money, I’m a Boss, Drugs and Hoes

To be fair most rappers have a lane they stick to that works for them. Including Nas.

I've been thinking this recently in lieu of the new Nas.

I know if he dropped another album he's gonna have some nefarious scheme on deck to boost them numbers. I know he doesn't want to go out like these other legends.

I don't even know what a Jay-Z album looks like in 2023...does he chase hits? Does he just drop an album for the cultue? Hov Drill album?

I don't think he cares about the sales; he has enough money. He probably wants to make sure the album is good, because that helps his legacy significantly more than topping the charts at this point.

 

[Busby]

Honestly, I feel Hov had nothing he wants to talk about for a full albums length. He is at that point now where he is too damn successful in life to drop anything music related. All his raps now are about him living that “Happily Ever After” life.

I mean IF he wants to drop an album, I can see him doing a Gangsta Grillz like album with Drama and he is just rapping. No theme or nothing…just bars for like 10 or 12 tracks..and that’s it. Just to remind folks on who he is..but even then

We will know he is serious about dropping new music when he finally cuts them dreads off..

 

[bigde09]

Jay don’t have a wave to ride right now so he’s not gonna drop any music until then
