Jaguar Wright on IG goes off about The Roots and Malik B

[<<TheStandard>>]

Cats be placing famous women on pedestals, they react/do normal shyt just like your everyday woman could possibly do.

Yeah I definitely did this a few times. I froze when Rihanna came to my club one night.

I was a DJ and tried to keep it professional with people. I was young and tying to get on.

Did u smash nikka?


U coulda been set like Nicki Minaj husband and Stedman

I didn't. I was blessed to DJ for her camp and her bday party tho.

 

[SlimOG]

this. had the advance of TFA and Jill's version was on that. I liked it better too, but yeah the label wanted Erykah to do it. She even stated that nothing was wrong with the OG Jill version and was confused.

I also heard the OG Jill version after shortly after the Erykah version and I was like huh myself also nikkas did Eve dirty to shyt they shot the video and told her a different day.

 

[prophecypro]

Now she out here trying to link the Roots to R Kelly?

 

[King Poetic]

I believe majority of what she’s talking about

Black Thought just got that twice face look.. one minute it’s “ laying my black queen down and rubbing African oil over her body” but the next minute it’s some Mc REN she swallowed it moment “ bytch spread your ass open so I can spit it “

Questlove just look dirty... nikka look like leatherface from Texas chainsaw

totally believe Kweli, Common and Jill Scott

questionable about Badu, but won’t be surprised, because Eryka walks around like her p*ssy is top 5 all time

She making some powerful accusations. I'm gonna wait and see what these folks who she blasting gotta say before taking sides.
But this chick had alot of rough shyt happening to her.. She been raped, she got turned out(she boasted about having a bytch and having 4 nikkahs on the side), Lost her son, Husband cheated..Felt the Roots abandoned her and blackballed her... So she was waiting for a reason to go at them.

The Roots and Com gotta address this shyt. This looks BAD

Other way around.

But he basically ADMITTED to ghostwriting in this old HipHopDX interview!!!

So either he is lying now or was lying then.

Dice Raw Releases First Official Single In 10 Years, "100"

===========
“[The song] is more important to me than any single I ever release because it’s really an incredible thing to look back at a 14-year career and see where I’m at now. There’s never really been another person in Hip Hop like me, know what I mean? I first came out on [The Roots’] ‘The Lesson’ in 1994, [and] didn’t drop my first solo project for another six years, and after that didn’t release a solo project till now…10 years later.”

While Dice has weathered a bumpy road, the artistic triple-threat burried maintained his relevance and his craft through staying tucked away in the recording studios of Philadelphia. “During all that time I was still relevant, because I was in the lab writing music that made it to huge levels of success, and nobody even knew I was involved. Because there was such a gap [between albums], I feel like putting this single out, and following up on it with the full project, The Greatest Rapper Never is a now-or-never situation for me. I’ve got so much versatile

he contributed to the music. God damn u nikkas be playin dumb. He was a co songwriter for the Roots. That don’t mean he ghostwrote fukking RHYMES AND VERSES. Like I said before. nikkas like gossip the same way bytches do.

No one in here is saying Dice ghostwrote for Thought.

Yes people are. Lol. A nikka flat out said Dice Raw was lying about not writing for Thought. And nikkas tryna frame what he said in that interview like he’s a liar. But nowhere in that interview did he say he ghostwrites rhymes. Apparently Questlove already confirmed that Dice Raw was a co-writer for their songs. A song consist of more than just raw rhymes.

He's been doing a lot of signing of hooks on their past couple of albums.

@Walt

Her point about them getting high and mighty about other rap nikkas on "What They Do" only to turn around and become glorified butlers for Jimmy Fallon is real deal too..

told Negroes the same thing in real time when it happened but they got mad , throwing out all sorts of “hater this and hater that”



... I’m not gonna dismiss Jag’s allegations by any means, however the ghostwriting thing I’m gonna call outright BS or a fundamental misunderstanding on her end of what that really means .

Thought is one of the illest of all time ... his rhyme structure and composition , cadence , flow, word selection , literary devices, vocab, intonations, etc. that he employs have been consistent throughout the years and have gotten better with time ... for someone to be writing his bars would mean it’d have to happen from DAY 1 . Thought is so unique with his penmanship and delivery , I can’t lend any credence to that allegation . However his misspelling of “resurrected” on his IG post did give me some pause






but nah even in his IG post you can tell his content and word flow are above average . Nobody was writing for that man. Let’s dead that now.

 

[Black Hans]

just b/c they made 'conscious hiphop' and 'neo soul' doesnt mean they were saints. look at talib.


but how u mad someone aint mourning up to your standards?

Their posturing like they are somehow different than the gangsta rappers when it came to women, especially Common , is why people are rightfully getting at them. Cats out here talking about brehs messing with white women only to find out they rain a train on some 60 something year old white woman from Colorado

 

[Awesome Wells]

Questlove just look dirty... nikka look like leatherface from Texas chainsaw

 

[spliz]

shyt is hilarious. Accurate description of that nikka. Lol

 

[Rekkapryde]

I believe majority of what she’s talking about

this

Can't lie, that's pretty good and I can see that. Thought still my nikka tho.

Questlove just look dirty... nikka look like leatherface from Texas chainsaw

totally believe Kweli, Common and Jill Scott

Kweli been exposed as a clown
Com still a hood nikka at heart, ain't fooled one bit.
Jill Scott even alluded to her whorish ways so no shock there either

questionable about Badu, but won’t be surprised, because Eryka walks around like her p*ssy is top 5 all time

to be honest, it might fukkin be!!!!

A lot of what Jag was said resonated with me. I was on that scene for a minute (I ain't have the patience or disposition for it) and it was bozo central. Non-stop frontin, embarrassing materialism, performative blackness... nikkas were so worthless and dysfunctional. Some of y'all been sitting online for years deflecting and rationalizing for utter doofuses you aint never gonna meet, and who wouldn't pass you a sunflower seed and a cup of water if you were in their presence. These nikkas be lames by the most basic block standards, and ya'' stay putting them on pedestals. Meanwhile, they constantly let you know exactly who they are through their actions and yall cling to these total myths of these cats being provocative thinkers and standup humans.

My track record here speaks for itself - told yall about the hulk hogan n-word scandal almost a full day before the story came out, and the traffic damn near crippled the coli because so many people came to this board for the story; told yall drake had a team of ghostwriters and producers like a decade before it became common knowledge; told yall about kanye 5 years before it was undeniable and even connected him to donald trump way in advance; explained a major college football scandal a decade before the recent exposé popped in the mainstream news. I don't talk on shyt unless I know what I'm talking about.

Jag is spot on with how they played Malik. Tariq has a legit weed addiction and you could say he's an alcoholic too. Her point about them getting high and mighty about other rap nikkas on "What They Do" only to turn around and become glorified butlers for Jimmy Fallon is real deal too. Quest is an absolute fukkboy - he and Talib stood out on that scene as two of the lamest pseudo-intellectual blowhards I'd ever encountered. Some of the most militant and conscious rappers on that scene used to be begging cats who worked at spots like Marc Ecko for free outfits. I helped book mos and talib for a show and their rider was some shyt like 10 bottles of henny and condoms. They performed brown skin lady and dipped with a gaggle of 18-21 year old white women. The Roots stayed in their vans/buses post-show with bum ass white groupies. Everyone familiar with that scene knew they were exploiting and underpaying talent. Common was a doofus and a half. The scene is a mix of megalomaniacs, insecure bougie nikkas performing blackness for white people, and nikkas who talk the most militant and political bullshyt bu are desperately trying to get invites to hobnob with wealthy white socialites. Some of the most insufferable nikkas I've ever been around. And would sell you out for a few pennies at every turn.

I'm sure Jag been through a lot - from navigating the industry, being blackballed, her son being murdered and her close friends dying too young. I hope she finds some peace. Shorty really was a talent and a presence.
