I bet he came up with that "I don't write rhymes" shyt as a narrative to protect him against being exposed :patrice:

People think that "not writing" rhymes is a herculean feat when it's not.

You construct a verse a piece at a time in your head and rehearse it as you go. Comes out much more natural than nikkas reading shyt off a paper.

Plenty of people do that, the only thing special about Jay is how much he can supposedly hold/remember at one time, like up to 3 songs according to him.

i do it myself. i have 10 year old verses and beats in my head. I'm just examining his claims in different contexts.

I'm not a biter i'm a writer for myself and others...:francis:

How fukking wack would that line be if someone else wrote it :mjlol::skip::mjcry:
it's that "he can do no wrong" syndrome. Drake is in that lane now, him and kendrick. And J.Cole.

I was saying "Drake is the new Jay" awhile back during the quentin miller shyt cause he's the same status, same exposures, same getting clowned for being swagless, same flow jackin, line jackin, and backed up by them folks, but every other month new shyt comes up that has me like :ohhh: jay really was drake before drake.


I've got ideas about nas as well, but that's for another thread

I also always felt like he mustve taken Jay by the hand and walked him through Hovi Baby.
Bruh I just posted this on my facebook and I didn't even read this.
I heard it the first time on either hot97 or 105.1
Dude was playing his shyt live on air. I thought he sounded like Lupe Fiasco or Grafh. Hov never broke his syllables up like that or went that far into the rappity rap zone again. Not before, not after. That verse was a Royce/Grafh/Los/Lupe...type jawn. Dude mind don't even work that way.

Drake allegedly wrote for others, but that's just writing pools and him being the owner of songs.
Think about it. All these too busy for rap moguls...all this young talent around them...nikka took Chris whisper flow? Maybe more.
"Excuse me miss" Came after "mami do you want me"...Pharrell's "I Just wanna love ya" hook came from Sparks.
Hov bit the whole philly...and most likely used Lupe bars for his "swan song" album.
