Jay-Z Is One Slick Ass Dude

[Homer Simpson]

there was a thread about this when the album came out

 

[Big Boss]

 

[Jaylen Tatum]

not too slick when his wife goes to a drake concert with her cheeks showing

 

[Goatpoacher]

How was Jay Z the blueprint? He copied the blueprint from Too $hort

God BP3 was kind of a let down in hindsight. Thank You, Already Home, So Ambitious, Cole actually being on a star is born where the high lights.

Thank God WTT came later.

Jay has always been full of himself since day one.

So was Pac, BIG, Nas & all of the other greats.

You're reaching hard must be some Jay hate because the song only bigged up his hiphop brothers. Rap is meant to be slick-talk and thats Jay doing Jay he showed nikkas on that record love and even put on then newbie J Cole. The OP is way outta line with this.

 

[McPiff]

Maybe the most narcissistic rapper ever

Would say LL Cool J, but that's part of his gimmick.He wants you to think that.


Jay's shyt is real.It's bone marrow deep with this dude

Somewhat.


I think LL being more out in the open with it makes him a lil more sincere.I can deal with a cat like LL because he wears it on his sleeve.You'll know where u stand with him.


Jay is sneaky, tho.The narcissism is deeply entrenched in dude.He never got girls because of his looks.He has to compensate in order to get over his insecurities.That shyt can drive a man mad.

It's some deeper shyt with Jay

That track basically summed up Jay in a nutshell. The Triple H of Rap constantly inherently putting himself over. Insecure with a over the top ego at the same damn time

The COLI y'all..

First of all, I'm not reaching at all. If it were one or two questionable lines, I could see your point. But given the fact damn near every single line in the song can be viewed as a slight to another MC and Jay Z's legendary penchant for subliminals, I don't understand how you can surmise that he's not being slick on this song.

Secondly, I don't hate, dislike, or have any ill will towards Jay Z. I even stated that I think the song is genius. He has truly mastered the art of the subtle diss, which takes much more skill than blatantly and overtly throwing shots at someone.

Third, and most importantly, I'm not out of line. I think the issue is, that you may lack the ability, or may be unwilling to see the jabs that Jay threw at the industry in this song. Given the fact that this should be considered a low level interpretation, in terms of comprehension, which is due to the non complexity of the verses, I'm leaning toward the latter.

thread 100% accurate

but jay made 1918223 songs givng himself props or asking why some people hate him after all he's done

fair enough i just dont see any disses. He even gave a shout out to people he beefed with like mase,prodigy,etc. Jay may very well be shallow but i dont see this song as anything other than a positive hiphop record with Jay showing love.

 

[Abstract83]

Jay grabs the sledgehammer aka threw that track out burying everybody and nobody says nothing.

 

[BeetAficionado]

This was obvious first time I heard the song mightas well said "golf clap for em golf clap for em"

 

[DontEemTry]

gonna be honest here, i enjoy hating on jay but that was an excellent fukkin breakdown

as a side note, that "fukkin awesome" line is one of the worst in rap history

Thought it was obvious it was some slick shyt. White boys always say "fukkin awesome" aka "fukkin A bro".
