The song isn't even about money. It's about fame.

Exactly, its a about fame personified. but i'm sure alot cats will still be thinking he is talking about money :comeon: there is a difference between the two you know...

Dudes say all he talks about is money like Heaven, Oceans, Jay-Z Blue, Versus, On the run are songs all about money...

Holy Grail is dope though, The Dream wrote a nice hook for it.. Shouldn't have been the first track though. I was expecting another classic Jay intro

J.T. should get The Dream to write more songs for him (if he doesn't already)

Heaven is probably still my favorite song on there though.

It's one of the auto-skips, prolly the worst jay-z album intro track by a comfortable margin...best tracks are Heaven or Nicks and Dimes to me...only tracks where jay is really spitting

I'm not a fan of the white boy...but he might have the hook of the year with this song.


And some of y'all are Twilight Zone status, naming some of the weaker/average songs as the best while shytting on this. :what: :laugh:

this song grew on me... the cheesy lines turned me off at first :smh: "blue told me remind you nikkas" "this fame hurts but this chain works" :thumbsdown: but jays second verse is dope. i like the hook now, dream did a good job

Get the hell up off your high horse
You got the shyt that nikkas die for, dry yours
Why you mad, take the good with the bad
Don't throw the baby out with the bath water

real shyt :yes:

"oceans" or "somewhereinamerica" is the best song to me
