JayZ Is Just A Very Good Marketer Now, He's No Longer A Hip Hop Artist or an MC

[Prince.Skeletor]

If you look at the Magna Carter commercials that infested youtube you'd see the amount of budget Jay put on the marketing campaign, and that deal with Samsung.
So much effort was put into advertising.
You listen to what Jay was saying on the web commercials, he was trying to sound so enthusiastic and philosophical.
Then the album came out and straight up sucked!!!!
Horrible!

Now look at Picasso baby the video, look how he talks in the beginning?
Oh small space there's more feeling bla bla bla, very creative and well done "rap" video, even pioneering in fact.
But the song just straight sucksssssss...

JayZ has now completely turned into a marketer, a big time corporate man.
He's no longer a hip hop artist

DMC (aka Darryl McDaniels) told me: “It was inevitable that hip-hop became commercialised but along the way our power got taken away.
“Now you got the same 12 records on radio being played over and over again. Lil Wayne, Jay Z ain’t hot, it’s just they’re programmed so many times people are brainwashed.”

DMC explained: “What made us, KRS, Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul great was that we wanted to change the world, taking responsibility for our actions.

I'm just saying, it is what it is
And as far was Jay goes, it's no lyrical or mic effort, it's all about budgeting, exec meetings and advertising.

Now grow up and stop being stans of a business person!

Very true and very precise time-wise!

I believe Jay came a little lazy lyrically on Magna Carta. I know he can do better. That being said to say he's not a hip hop artist is well...stupid. To this day Jay is one of the greatest MC's ever and is still taking hip hop to new heights.

1. Just because you don't like it, doesn't make it not hip-hop. Bad hip-hop is still hip-hop.

2. I know you guys think you're hella important, but quality is still subjective.

 

[Prince.Skeletor]

you remind of me of bill maher

 

[Busby]

He told you from the beginning that he is not a rapper..
