So is Jay gonna be rapping at 50?

[OG Talk]

Why does every Jay-Z accomplishment have to be compared in the context of what some white person has done before him? And all under the guise of pushing the culture forward. Yall sambos got it fukked up..


Fukk the Rolling Stones..They are thieves, junkies and fakkits..


Now ask yourself. Who are they to be equaled to?

 

[malbaker86]

I hope so. Rap/Hip Hop needs more mainstream artist that are plus 40 still dropping dope music or even music that can get mainstream attention. If other genre's can push artist who's past their primes and over 40, why shouldn't rap?

And may i ask how does Jay's music not reflect his age now?

my dad younger than jay-z the mental image of my pops in a leather snapback yellin ''bad bytch i hope she got it'' next to me in the club.

Damn breh its always black and white with u

opposite side of the mind state i spoke to u about a while back..but just as extreme

This is about the advancement of hiip hop culture and the genre as being respected and recognized as a worldwide artform and the genre of the world

Dnt know why u brought race into it, prolly cuz u see racial tension everywhere where its not

U got some issues u needa work out breh..go to church tomorrow or sumin breh

In camel years,he's already past 50

Overall I don't care if any rapper raps past 50. But more than likely,the content of jays music will be him pushing weight in a nursing home,his wheelchair having 30 in rims,and how he got the baddest nursing aide in the game rockin his candy chain

When Nas hits 50,you'll hear him talk about his grandchildren and how important it is to diet and exercise so you stay healthy. My nikka gonna be 30 years in the game looking 17 He's gonna be talking about how he tells his teenage son Knight to get an education and not become another statistic. And God's Son will probably drop some more I Can songs looking out for the youth.

I'm not gonna put an age limit on any rapper,all I ask is it to be quality music and age appropriate. I don't want to see 50 year olds dressed in skinny tight jeans talking about popping mollys or female rappers popping the wrinkles out the pussies

nikka you being sarcastic and stand-offish just for the fukk of it at this point, completely glossing over the whole point because the stones are "thieves junkies and fakkits!"

Insert any other group in any other music genre you can think of that can go on a successful tour /put out music in their 60's-70's, hip hop isn't even old enough for us to have our version of THAT, but we are approaching that stage in our evolution.

I hope so. A relevant old rapper can only help the genre. It doesn't have to be Jay-Z, he's just in the best position to drop a critically acclaimed album into his 50s or 60s.

Ya pops grow up on hip hop??

Unlike ya pops Jay is heavily involved in hip hop culture and has been since the age of 19...he grows with the culture and the culture grows with him..ofc he'll take and reference some slang and languages from recent hip hop

and besides, his verse on that song was based on mature references to classic old italian mob movie references....

emulating racist italians at 45 is mature behaviour? thanks for clearing that up

\My point was he referenced classic gangster movies in a way these youngsters cant do...they aint grow up on dat and when they do reference some for their gangsta rhymes its usually on some kiddie young bol shyt

Also are u ignoring songs like Picasso baby, Blue, Nickels and Dimes, Oceans, F.U.T.W, SomewhereinAmerica, Heaven etc.

Like u rlly tellin me this album aint mature

If anything this is Jay's most mature album, maybe second to kingdom come

 

[Danie84]

He already surpassed camel years, so why not

 

[Buckeye Fever]

I dont have a problem with it, but stop tryna adapt to the younger generation. Dont be 50 yrs old rappin over trap beats.

Stop makin club records.

nikka need to be makin music to step to or music that youd hear in a fancy steakhouse or somethin.

Shoutout to Nas for being 40 and bringing that grown man perspective to hip hop





Hov gonna be 50 years old dancing around, doing joints like Picasso Baby

 

[kt773]

It was 4 years between his last two solo albums if i'm not mistaken, that's one maybe two more albums by the time he's 50. And really...I would be mad if jay up and quit after 50, just for the simple fact that somebody that old not only rapping, but being relevent to the music and the culture will be pushing us as a whole into the rock and roll territory where our history can't be invalidated as some kind of youth fad or some shyt, rappers could possibly do shyt like the rolling stones and still have viable careers beyond the average shelf life of the emcee which is like 4 years at best. Like the music or not that's a GOOD thing.

fam tell em how much the rolling stone tickets cost in 2013 lmaooooo nas,em and jay pushing up the age limit in hip hop is good for the culture..im 28 and was super geeked to see doug e fresh and rick the ruler a few years ago when they came to the chi
