Jay -Z being the undisputed goat is a narrative created by the corporations he works for

[Cladyclad]

Weakest catalog out of any rapper considered "goat" outside of Eminem.

Dude literally is more quoted and his beats are rapped over more than any other rapper ever

 

[Mr 18]

The dude had a number 1 album 10 years straight

Eminem has been consistently way more popular.

 

[I'm Blackman]

cant argue with that.

 

[Mr 18]

Dude liteally is more quoted and his beats are rapped over more than any other rapper ever

Doesn't mean anything

 

[Cladyclad]

Doesn't mean anything

huh if rappers are quoting his lyrics more than any other rapper and rhyming over his beats more than any other rapper

explain to me how can that catalog be weak

Ill never understand the JayZ hate, I can only identify it as jealousy, and or agism. He is not my Goat but I have zero issue with him being the Goat in hip hop circle. He pretty much has done everything, for a long time, started trends, did great business, married well etc etc.

If we gonna just talk rapping, there are like 1000 videos of people saying like he has unreal mind, and that what he does is unbelievable.
Really what is the issue?

Crabs in a barrel hating

 

[BK The Great]

Even Future gave Jay a hook

 

[2ATMsYouSteppinOrWhat]

jay hate was somewhat funny years ago

now its cringe and corny tbh

 

[2ATMsYouSteppinOrWhat]

the narrative that he is the greatest also started in the 90’s

x even said it on the backstage documentary

I have no dog in this fight but your comment reminded me of when Rick Rubin described the writing processes of Jay and Eminem.

He said Eminem would jot a whole bunch of shyt down in his notepad before recording.

And Jay would close his eyes, do this weird hum, and he'll just spit the lyrics out with no lyrics written down.

[No Hook]

Some of ya’ll Jay stans/fans have to learn to read the room better. This is a bait thread if there ever was one

Soon as @EBK String said Jay was in his top 5 I stopped reading

 

[MJ Truth]

I hear Gen Z’ers Gen Alpha types talking about how Jay isn’t even a good rapper more than I hear anyone saying he’s the consensus greatest rapper ever.

Big allegedly thought he wasn't as nice as Jay
