Who caught that lick? Did jay best his guns and try to get em back or did he just take that L?
* His First Arrest
Jay-Z’s first arrest came at age 16. He was dealing in Trenton, because his friend “Hill” had a supplier there. Hill had enrolled in the local high school, and one day when Jay-Z went to meet him, he got caught with crack in his pockets on the campus. Since he had no prior arrests, the police let him go, but they confiscated his supply. In order to make up the cash to the supplier, Jay-Z had to go back to Marcy and deal crack 60 hours straight — three days in a row, he writes. He kept awake by “eating cookies and writing rhymes on the back of brown paper bags.”
What's it matter? In 96 hours he got it all back!This is all fact!
This is before rap!

I think that's kanye talking from Jay's point of view thoughNever Change is one of my favorite songs ever, but between Hov's 92 Bricks Adventure, and Kanye claiming he's "still fukkin' with crime cuz crime pays", there's a whole lot of Ducktales in that track.
