Hov Stans will ALWAYS downplay Ether...ALWAYS have..."B-B-But Hov was giving facts and Nas was just throwing punch lines

"
Damn near the whole 2nd verse were FACTS...straight up rather y'all like it or not...
And Hov Stans will ALWAYS have Hovnesia when I bring this up
[AUDIO] Jay-Z Crying On Hot97 After Hearing Ether!! Nas WON - YouTube
They REFUSE to remember tha..which is probably why the full interview has bever been released cuz Hov probably told Hot 97 to throw it in the bushes

...
I was pretty young so I wasn't really up on the beef until I got order...and I heard Takeover and Ether back to back..and when I heard Takeover I was like

...but then when I heard Ether I was like "

...ain't shyt funny about that...that's just...

"
I remember playing that song for my homie and I remember he said "Damn..I can't even look at Jay-Z the same way anymore...it's like looking at rape victim

"
And yeah BP2 was nice response..but it was too little too late and fall on deaf ears...
I bet u even Obama even text Hov one day like "Wow...I just got done listening to Nas's Ether for the first timd and I have to admit...u do kinda got wiskers

"
Ether hurt Hov Stans the MOST...cuz they REALLY get emotional ANYTIME someone brings it up...sorta like the Romney supporters when they realize their hero got kicked in the nuts
