fuk dat..i aint got 20 minutes of my life to waste on reading about jay and some damn champagne. need cliffs!
I didnt read the article he posted...but if its the same one thats in the book "
empire-state-of-mind-255x300.jpg
"...which i'm pretty sure it is...then i'll summarize it

Basically it says that once upon a time there was this $50 dollar champagne with a gold bottle...Jay-Z secretely made a deal with the company after that whole Cristal thing popped off, they claim, they altered the bottle and name slightly put it in a video and the shyt took off. They sold bottles for like 300 or however much that shyt is. The other brand slowly disappeared. The author of the book then embarks on a Michael Moore Mission to france to talk with the so called family owned company of the champagne... The Champagne company insists that Jay has nothing to do with their Champagne, but the author of the book provides some pretty damning evidence that suggests otherwise...as well as some inconsistencies in the brands history.

It was a lot of weird hate since it was associated with Jay-z and probably just cause he was black. The funny thing was that the biggest wine magazine in the world ranked it #1 in a blind test. And it's consistently ranked high. If I recall correct it was a company that made champagne that released another champagne and that was Ace. Just like Moët owns shytty champagne but also Dom P.

The article said the manufacturing costs of one bottle of ACE OF SPADES is roughly 13 dollars

Yet it retails for 300....

Are you comparing clothes to a drink?

And VIP comes with more than liquor

im comparing niggs overzealous spending habits
and the only reason niggs get VIP is to stunt w/ liquor. if they just wanted a peaceful place to drink they'd go to a cigar bar

I was just thinking how the black community has all these great capitalistic minds that are just going to the wrong side of the business (drugs). Not saying all these nikkas have the same mind, drive, and opportunity as Hov, but it shows what the neighborhood can produce given said opportunity.
