People forget that Jay only survived ether cause all his alter ego's end up taking the bullet for him...

The black brad pit had to die...Jay hasn't been him since Ether
European Jay had to die...Jay hasn't been him since Ether
Hovito had to die...Jay hasn't been him since Ether
Jigga had to die...Jay hasn't been him since Ether

Jay straight sacrificed these nikkas in order for him to keep going...if not for them he would have had to fall back on that A1 credit

In this thread: a bunch of nikkas who think playground insults are cool. How else would they think Ether won?
"You a dikk ridin fakkit who traded his soul for riches" Isn't playground insults..Its a psychological breakdown of the soul of a man and his moral weaknesses..

That's brotherly love right there...Even Jay said it made him stronger...

I cant remember what exactly it was called, but I distinctly remember Jay-Z was picked over Rakim and Biggie in a top 50 greatest list some weeks prior on a BET special. I still remember watching the list on TV while visiting family over Thanksgiving. For the life of me I could never find it. I remember Snoop being interviewed. Mac 10 talking about DMX making the list. It was a legit list. Top 5 was Pac, jay, Biggie, Rakim, and Nas. Then the last 5 were LL, PE, Snoop, Cube and Face. Its kind of hard to re-live that time period. Not being from NYC, and unless you were aware of what was happening and what the atmosphere was like, its really hard to re-live it because our images of the both of them has changed over time.

Not being from NYC, and that NY movement in the early 00s, Nas was sort of left behind. He was really lagging in a lot of people's minds.

Ether was really just a critique of jay-Z. And it made him look and react like a petulant little child. Retorting to TMZ tactics. That alone is why Ether is so great. made this supposed boss, GOAT, untouchable persona, react like a spoiled brat.

Jay stans going full retard mode in here, Jay admitted he lost, Dame said Jay lost, Bleek said Jay lost, Jay lost the poll against Ether and his stans are in bizarro land finding all kind of scapegoats to give him a W. If Jay can admit his defeat how come his stans can't? :yeshrug: It isn't like he's paying any of you :heh:

I hate the song ether. The beat is trash and the disses were forced. Jay z was just arrogant so it was good to see him be disrespected by someone on his level which was in my opinion the only reason he won. It was like a victory by trolls. When people dont like you and your enemies diss you, they'll put extras on your W, just because you put it out there, not becaues it was actually hot. Dont nobody recite ether lyrics, but they recite that takeover.

Same people who say that Ether is only playground insults are the ones who keep saying Takeover is all facts. Like the "one hot album" line is a fact :comeon:, like Nas is getting fukked on publishing is a fact when MC Serch already refuted that :stopitslime:.
