Its 2013 and Jay-Z is still being a dyck ryding ******...

[DaPresident]

Nas team up with JT and some of y'all would be like

"now JT getting "real" artists on his songs"

"JT recognizing the gawd Nasir "

"Nas does THIS to make good music, not hop on trends like camel"


comin up with all kinds of excuses for Nas, but the man y'all (blindly) hate y'all will crucify. Nas is cool with Jay, shouldn't that be enough for some of yall stans?

 

[Never Broke Again]

Nas doesn't feature the hottest artists of the moment on his projects

Hov did 2 joint albums wit R Kelly when he was burning hot (pause)

he did the same with Kanye

He did a tour with 50 in 03

He did a tour with R. Kelly

He did a tour with Eminem after Recovery

WTT Tour

and now the tour with JT

u can't see the trend

but we just gonna ignore

Nas touring with the fugees in 1996
or
Usher in 2002

Lauryn Hill on his lead single with Killing Me Softly in rotation

Diddy on a single and a Timbo/Aaliyah planned single that was never thrown out there, along with a DMX collab in 1999

Alicia Keys on God's Son

Half the damn crew of Hip Hop Is Dead. Kanye, will.i.am, Scott Storch, Game, Stargate

Keri Hilson and Chris Brown ...

The hottest MC of 2012 on Life Is Good

stop it with your double standards. EVERY artist rides trends unless they some washed up fukkboy

 

[Ego Noir]

sounds like a man who knows how to use leverage to his advantage

he takes your favorite rappers steam and makes it his.



Minimal effort, max results

 

[the cac mamba]

Camel been dikkriding since 89

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

a lot of in this bytch

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

Sounds like a smart Businessman to me.....

i was about to say the same thing... especially from someone who coined the phrase "i'm not a business man, i'm a business, man"


same thing microsoft does.. hot new item or company comes, they buy them out then either destroy their company or take it over and drop all their products as if microsoft was responsible for it... its called business and cross promotion

he hasn't been in the game and one of the top since 96-97-98 for nothing

 

[DontEemTry]

a lot of in this bytch

Fixed.

 

[Yung Yogurt]

This thread is terrible but, jay is a known User... nikka used jaz o to get on and took his name/style, used the whole state prop and sigel, used dame, now its looking like the same scenario wit kanye. Jigga is a cold nikka, when will nikkas learn about that snake.

[Professor Polo]

Jay sees himself as the best, so its only right he aligns himself with whoever else is the best at that point in time, it makes business sense, and the energy of the "hot" artist motivates him to continue being competitive.

Can't hate on Hov for playing chess, unless he makes another "Ghetto Techno"p:

 

[Cloud McFly]

Nas doesn't feature the hottest artists of the moment

Game
Lil Jon
Chris Brown
Lil Wayne
Nicki Minaj
DMX
Missy Elliot
R. Kelly
Aaliyah
Lauryn Hill
Puff Daddy
Ludacris
Ja Rule
Kanye West
Rick Ross
Young Jeezy
Meek Mill


All were the hottest at the moment when he worked with them

 

[Insensitive]

Don't forget Miguel @Cloud McFly

 

[Bolzmark]

So its only Jay who is benefiting from these collabs huh? None of those other artists benefit from working with the hottest rapper over the past 17 years huh?

Is it just stupidity or hate that breeds these theories?

 

[usopp]

Its kinda like an old bytch tryin to hang onto her youth

 

[McPiff]

what a fakkit you are.... Acting all homotional and shyt. you think jay is the only one doing that?
you think jay is the one that reached out to be on JT's single?
