So 50 has more monthly spotify listeners than Jay Z

[staticshock]

Imagine somebody bumping 'Holy Grail' in the year of our Lord 2025...

Imagine somebody bumping Candy Shop in ANY year

50 has more of an overt presence, Jay is like a damn ghost.

The real Jay Z fans listen to his music through Tidal not Spotify

Imagine being black bumping "****** Album" in 2025

The fact it's even that close is peculiar...probably because of the Alicia Keys "Empire State of Mind" jawn, that's like his only international big hit song tbh, they love that shh!t in Europe etc, the hook..

 

[Feed-Me]

But overlook the fact that he had Dre and Eminem. They were both present during the GRODT promo runs even doing joint interviews and magazine covers.

Why Jay told his whole roster to get his music out before 50 arrived. Doesn't matter if 50, dre em had a hand. He had nikkas like jay and diddy who actively admitted to black balling himm but now 50 the bully for calling them punks?

This has nothing to do with what I posted. Hip Hop is the most collavorative genre there is and most artists have hit songs with features.

50 at his peak > Jay at his peak

Did it without Beyonce and Rihanna too

Em and Dre is chopped liver now?

I’m glad Obie Trice is doing big numbers too

Holy Grai

Master P did it better

And then people forget 50 had a flopped single with Destiny's Child early in his career. This was peak Destiny's Child at that coming off their biggest album.

Since when were Dre and Em doing joint interviews and magazine covers with Obie Trice?

Obie ain't get swiss cheezed up and used that for marketing though. Like, what are we talkin about

 

[JustCKing]

And if we're on this "let's nerf Jay for having big name features" schtick, let's see:

50 Cent feat. Alicia Keys- New Day= FLOPPED

50 Cent feat. Justin Timberlake and Timbaland- AYO Technology= 50 Cent out of place and a liability on his own song. Corny 50 Cent that would've been classic with a T.I. on it instead.

50 Cent feat. Akon- Still Kill= FLOP. Fire song though.

in da club I played at 38 million birthdays

Nah but everyone knows those things are hit driven, ie how money playlists you’re on and it’s hard to deny that 50s hits are bigger



Just look at guys like Pitbul, a lot bigger than both. Flo-Rida on the same number as 50. Akon, up there.


But if you look at # of streams I doubt Florida is 50s nor Jays level
