I wouldn’t believe this shyt if it wasn’t so many accounts from various artist he’s worked with saying the same thing. This nikka unintentionally fukked up the game by doing this cause he influenced a whole generation to try this shyt, which led to them punching in a few bars at a time and calling it “freestyling” Also, Jay Z doesn’t freestyle his verses. That’s the wrong term for what he does as well. He creates entire verses in his head without writing them down, then goes to the studio and spits the whole verse. Jay Z wordplay is much to intricate for him to be coming off the top and one taking verses.

I agree with this about him not freestyling his verses. I wonder if he freestyles a couple of lines in the verses to tack on. Cause that's Ross, Dead Prez, and Bun B and a few others I'm forgetting that talked about having a conversation or particular subject of a song and Jay hitting them with a verse about it that quick. I think Missy said the same about the One Minute Man Remix too.

But in this case, it sounds like he did freestyle it somewhat.

Jay wouldnt have known the subject matter Ross was discussing. Although it is possible he had already had a topic in his head

The thing is, there are artists that he's worked with that have said he has freestyled the shyt off the top as well...
