Question is, why should he put any one on from his city? He had a hard enough time putting himself into the game. Let fellow adults stand on their own two, you fukking beggin'-for-hand-outs bums, you :huh:

This takes me back to a BP3 where Jay Z said something which I feel is appropriate for this thread

"So why the fukk can't ya'll get hot already (already)
Put your name in the pot already
nikkas compare me to Biggie and Pac (already)
Like I'm gone already
And I am nikka I'm already home already (already)
If ya'll can't already see
I ain't worried about ya'll cause I'm already me (already)
Do you, already
Enough with the complaining, boo-hoo's already
Eat food already
Ain't nothing given you gotta claim your shoes already"

You probably cant and no one suggested that. With a talent pool like Brooklyn had/has, one would think you would be able to show love to your city. Jay was clearly in a position to help people get on, even if not signing them himself. Would Jay have ever become the star he is today without the support of Brooklyn? Without the support of NY?


I'm talking about Brooklyn.

Tru Life is from Manhattan and never blew, I'm pretty sure he's doing life now....



Naa...i cant see your point. Jay can do as he pleases with his company. There's no rule saying he has to put anyone on.......jay Z is an admitted drug dealer and shot his own brother.....Dont expect any charitable acts from such a person.


and Bleek does count...This is the way I remember it...... Dude tried to put Bleek on and Bleek didnt have what it took to be that super duper star.....U do remember how Jay was supposed to retire after Vol 2 and how Bleek was supposed to be the "new improved Jay Z".........Well when Bleek couldnt do it Jay did what any smart man did...jump in and save the business before the bottom falls......He became what he wanted Bleek to become..



O yeah.....He also tried to put M.O.P. on when they were in "fall off" limbo....They from Brooklyn.....Dude pretty much tried to revive something that was dead with MOP.

Talking about Brooklyn, not the whole city.



There has been a lot of talent out of Brooklyn over the years.

Why didn't Jay put any Brooklyn rappers on?


Kanye has done more for his city.

:aicmon:

thats like saying kanye didn't put on Lupe for his city because Lupe was from the westside and kanye from south chi

if you would've sent a letter to a young Kanye West the city was Oak Lawn Illinois

We're talking about Brooklyn if you don't like the premise of the thread you can leave. Each borough is known independently for their artists, style, and sound.

Yeah he confused me with that one as well. When he said "city" thats supposed to mean the whole NYC meaning all 5 boroughs. He didnt exceute this properly. He shoulda put "borough" in the title.
