Jay and Gayle probably have more in common in 2023 than Nore and Jay, as far as values and what they think about daily goes.

CTG would probably be good though, he could provide good balance. Jay and Nore would be. Jay would either answer like he’s talking about a crime and Feds are listening or he’d say some shyt that Nore, even if basic, wouldn’t get and just jump to “what about the Lexus” :yawn:

What makes Jay Z more special or iconic than 50, Snoop, Nas, Kanye, LL, Cube or any of the other hip hop legends that weren't above sitting down with Nore?

I swear his fans unnecessarily guard the mystique of him and his wife. Like they can never be seen around "common negros" or it may harm the brand.

Exactly

This.

fukking alicia keys went on drink champs and was cool as shyt.

if the interviewer asks something crazy...curve the question ("cmon Nore") or dont answer. He did the breaksfast club and they asked about pregnancy rumors and rumors about him getting charlamange fired.

They'd have to preapprove all the questions for the interview for it to even happen. No way it's a traditional Drink Champs interview. It's not gonna happen. Also, NORE knew this from the jump as Biggs is the exec producer of his show lol

On one hand I get the complaint on general terms. On the other hand Nore's show is so unprofessional, so unprepared, and so embarrassing that I'm never going to criticize black artists for preferring to go elsewhere. The entire format of Drink Champs is trash and needs to be changed. The questions are rarely good, there is no consistent narrative throughout, and Nore often ends up repeating the same questions over and over because he is drunk. Why would Jay want to associate himself with that? The funny thing is that Nore has said Jay used to watch the show. So I'm sure Jay has seen how it has gotten worse and worse, and less professional. If anyone saw the Snoop episode you know what I'm talking about.

"Black media" needs to have an inner conversation about why artists are refraining from talking to them. They need to be honest and ask why would an artist rather do an interview with Zane Lowe but not me? Is it because Zane is white...or is it because Zane isn't going to be asking asinine questions about gossip and bullshyt in order to go viral? Go look at that Breakfast Club interview with Jada, who I got zero respect for BUT even I will say she got railroaded by being asked that disgusting question about the recent Will/gay rumor. They know that shyt came from a trashy youtube channel, they know it has no real value or truth, yet still ran with it in order to go viral and get Jada's immediate reaction. And it's not like TBC is the only "black media" platform that operates like that. Most of them do. Let's be real. If I'm a rapper I'm talking to Ebro, Sway, and that's about it. Because those are the other ones I can think of with basic integrity.
