Who did Jay-Z ever put on from his city?

[Raw Lyrics]

Outta towers don't understand the sheer magnitude n size of NYC.

It take about 1 1/2 hour on the train to get to brooklyn from where I'm at.

I'm from uptown n I don't think I've been to Brooklyn more than 3 times in my whole life

Boroughs in NY is like 4 separate states to keep it a buck

Co-sign. I'm from Brooklyn and I've only been uptown like 5 times and about 3 of those time were for the Puerto Rican festival. NYC is big.

Amil and Tru Life...or atleast he tried with Tru Life.






i have a question for Op.......how can one be a universally successful label by only being secluded to signing artists from their own city?

Let's call a troll thread a troll thread

No religious dummies to rile up in HL?

Its different my nikka. Chicago is one big ass city. New York is a bunch of independent boroughs incorporated together. If you know a little bit of history, New York was just Manhattan and the boroughs were their own thing. BK was Kings County. Queens was a bunch of small towns, yada yada yada. They annexed them into NYC because there were certain city in the Midwest that was gaining steam & we couldn't have that

Brooklyn is at 2.5 million population, 70sq miles
Queens is at 2.2 million population, 109sq miles
Chicago is at 2.7 million population, 227sq miles

I mean, look at that. If there was no NYC, Brooklyn & Queens would be the 3rd & 4th largest cities. Its different. Everybody might rep NYC with pride, but BK nikkas are BK nikkas, Queens nikkas are Queens nikkas, Uptown nikkas are Uptown nikkas, etc.

i see where you comin from. Like my boy does say he's from Brooklyn, never says New York if someone asks him

I guess its just how you interpret where duke is comin from with the original question
