Even tho Jay is a Mastermind unlike any other, he couldn't control all the pawns on his chess board. Hence him getting sucked into Memphis Bleek imaginary beef with Nas that became real real quick.
Jay-Z, Mase, Big L story explained by Blink on Drink Champs
- Thread starter Bolzmark
- Start date
This is exactly why I put him up there as the best or top 3
He don’t go on interviews telling these story’s
Others do
High profile stars tell these stories
Scarface goes on club Shay Shay and tells the stories
Buckshot Bernadette and dru ha goes on podcast and interviews and tell the story’s
Ras Kass tells the story
Mic Geronimo tells the drunk story
Dehaven Calvin Klein choke Oshino those that hate him tells the story’s and they low key understand why he moved away from them
They really just want another chance to be around him
Busta tells high school stories about him
crazy I read this, then hopped on instagram and saw a clip of a (I guess) recent Shyne interview where he's telling a story about when Bad Boyz hit...
and the whole highlight of the story for him is Hov walking up to him in a club and giving him a dap and telling him good job.

Hov is prolly the only artist that....
When I think about my favorite/GOAT MCs, and I just instinctively blurt them out? He's not on that list.
But I've listened to a shyt ton of Hov's music. And every time I revisit his music, I'm like "Why don't I have him in my top 5!?
So I guess if we use "who's revered by their peers" as a metric, Hov really one of the GOAT of GOATs.
That could be a thread in itself, right. "GOATs of GOATs: Your favorite rappers' favorite rappers."
Big L and Biggie said Jay was better than them. Even 50 said it
Sadly yeah. When Cam and Ma$e were talkin about their Big L shyt on IIWII, I was legit like
but not shocked. Just basic crab nikka shyt.
Yeah, he let Bleek get him caught up. Especially when it was clear Jay was a fan of Nasir. shyt was goofy. Just glad it didn't end ignorant like other beefs.
Jay was a fan of illmatic. He ain’t like another Nas album since
do you have a valid source for these claims beyond gossip/hearsay? i remember that moron r.a. the retarded man said biggie told him HE was the illest, only for that magazine interview with BIG to eventually surface where BIG clowned himBig L and Biggie said Jay was better than them. Even 50 said it
now jay-z is actually talented, so i'll consider it a possibility, but i'd love to see print/video of L or BIG saying this about jay
otherwise it just sounds like some chatty patty shyt to me. i dont think that fu-schnikens shyt impressed BIG or L, though he was doing a new style by 95. clearly L and BIG respected him enough to have them on their albums, but i'd like more proof.

Exactly, at least Jay's verses with Big were dope. That feature on L's album is complete garbage/debatable worst verse on the song.do you have a valid source for these claims beyond gossip/hearsay? i remember that moron r.a. the retarded man said biggie told him HE was the illest, only for that magazine interview with BIG to eventually surface where BIG clowned him

If he thought IWW was midand you believe these cats?
rappers are the epitome of being fulla shyt.
every Nas album after had no chance
THANK YOU
years ago i was friends with a white guy from staten island (idk what he was doing out here either lol). he turned me on to a lot of NY rap i didnt know about, L being one of them. he used to lose his mind rapping along to jays corny ass verse
THE WAY I ROCK NO WAY U CAN STOP
I STOP POP N DROP WHEN JAY GETS HOT
WHEN IM IN THE ZONE BETTER HOLD UR OWN
COS I LIKE TO BREAK WHEN I FINISH A POEM
POUND FOR PUH PUH PUH POUND THE BEST AROUND
NO WAY U CAN GET UP WHEN I GET DOWN
like its been years and i can still hear him yelling it in his pontiac to the point where its memorized in my brain forever
ive read that big L's lifestylez album was shelved for a couple years, which makes sense because jay was still doing that corny fu-schnickens shyt
fukkIN A fukkIN JAY ILL WIT SKILLS

thank GOD he ripped off ghost and raekwon for Unreasonable Snout.. and thank god "Ghetto Techno" exists so its been kinda swept under the rug
Huh? Jay and Nas been taking shots at each other since the 90's. One of the first I remember is Nas saying "Lex with tv sets the minimum" on "The Message" in '96 after Jay had the GS300 with tv sets in the Dead Presidents video. Then of course there was the Carmen sh!t.
