Because basic nikkas hate to be criticized for shyt they already know is wrong.

Regardless of how you feel about him, he's a black half billionaire giving you financial advice. Only an actual FOOL would ignore that...

If ever a time there was a need to use the term "pocket watching" it would be this. How much money he has doesn't matter.

You think spitting lyrics about downloading credit karma, investing in options and buying paintings is making some type of impact.

He's trying to SELL RECORDS, to put money in HIS pockets. He's celebrating going from being a drug dealer to businessman.

And again, I'm emphasizing how he's coming across. He made DOA, then turned around and made auto-tune records :mindblown: Bragged about being married to Beyoncé but cheated on her :mjpls:

The only thing Jay-Z has been consistent with throughout this career is being insecure about how he looks.

You're right, black people with a voice should instead promote negativity to the community.

The fukk does it matter if something's obvious or not? Energy creates more energy.
Im not saying everyone has to be some "woke" brother. Ima support him for what he is. But don't try to play me. I can listen to his music but not celebrate the negativity of it. he's talented at what he does and he gets credit for that from me.

But I'm not gonna fall for the okie doke.

People like jay is what keep black people and these pseudo woke people confused.

Funny thing is that I would take 4:44 for what it is if I didn't come to the Coli and get ridiculed for not just blindly questioning a career gangsta rappers wokeness.

Y'all call people c00ns on here everyday why not question weather a c00n is genuine when he conveniently drops some "woke" tracks.

Jay-z has already done enough damage trying preach,but he was the dude making it cool to shyt on his label mates for money,jerk the producer(like he did with some dudes on State Property),pop bottles,promote all the negative shyt,talk about flossing shyt but act like these new rappers ain't got that bullshyt from him, and the dude tries to preach now when did he already put so much negative energy. He a day and dollar short.

You can write what you want in your raps right but don't think for one moment people take that shyt seriously,cause you don't practice what you preach .Plus Jay-z preaching aint gonna change the atmosphere out here for the reason he wants to talk about ownership but this fool has lost so much ownership to companies he ran after he literally sells them out to majors.

Jay Z's fortune comes off owning Rocafella records...which then turned into State Property and Rocafella Clothing and Dipset...

if Jay Z didn't sell albums...he would be broke...

Jay Z told you he dumbed down his lyrics and rapped about ignorant shyt to sell albums...

If Jay Z didnt rap about ignorant shyt he wouldn't be wealhty...


So now he is telling young artists..."Hey don't rap about ignorant shyt..."

"Why you rapping about going to the strip club..."

These artists are doing the same fukking shyt he did...and now he wanna shut the shyt down...

Let's be real....Jay Z is one of those old nikkas that can't tolerate young nikkas enjoying their life and getting put on...

The same reason why he came down hard on autotune is the same reason why he coming down on strip club and instagram culture...

nikka is just a hater..

If this was Common rappin this shyt...or Lupe Fiasco...whose whole entire career was about deterring nikkas from the street life..not just the tail end of their career....then it would be different...

But it's fukking Jay Z that dissed Nas for "kicking knowledge" the Jay Z that told Harry Belafonte that his prescene is enough...the Jay Z that told nikkas he sold out to get money...

:mjlol:

I wasn't referencing Jay Z talking down to other rappers, so this has nothing to do with my post. :yeshrug:


not to mention.... you can't compare rap lyrics to gangbanging which leads to death or prison :mjpls:
I'm not . Both the ex gangbanger and the rapper are giving advice, thats all that matters here

I already know exactly where you're coming from your username @Ethnic Vagina Finder :mjpls:

But please tell me ONE song other than Put On Remix where he said "fick that autotune" where he actually used autotune.

nikka :mindblown: he made records with people that used autotune all the time like Kanye and Lil Wayne. If I denounce crack then turn around and marry a crack hoe you gonna look at me like I'm crazy.

He didn't even take full ownership of the?song trying to blame it on Kanye saying the song concept was Ye's idea. Jay Z is a phony. 2 chainz reinvented himself by changing his name from titty boi. Jay Z reinvented himself by changing his whole style. Jay Z will say and do anything that fits the narrative at any given time just make money. And if that's what you respect that's on you but you can't expect everyone else to.

Blacks folks are so cynical it not even funny.

Yes the man has contradicted himself but let not ignore his elevation. Jay come a long way and he has basically paved the road of success for rappers in the game. Does it seem disingenuous that he riding this "conscious" wave when it so popular now? Somewhat but again, I take it with a grain of salt. He a business man simply delivering a product. If you mad about it, your simply exposing your insecurities in this. I personally try to take it for face value, elevate from it and keep it moving. being conscious incredibly more than just a tweet or a song, it a life long journey. Let see what happens

This is to the memory of Danroy Henry
Too much enemy fire to catch a friendly
Strays from the same shade nikka, we on the same team
Giving you respect, I expect the same thing
All-black everything, nikka you know my fresh code
I’m out here fighting for you, don’t increase my stress load
nikkas watching the throne, very happy to be you
Power to the people, when you see me, see you
