Why Are Black Ppl Mad At Jay-Z For "Kicking Knowledge"?

[Hungerpain]

Yep. Westside Atlanta all day everyday. Was in Queen City and the Blue Flame before I was even out of HS, and I collectively probably spent under a few bands combined in those spots. Lot of them chicks was from my hood, the fukk ima pay them for? Local round the way nikkas don't pay for dances. We getting too busy getting the waitress to slide us your CC# . It was always them weekend warriors who was throwing money anyway, trying to act like they was hustling. BMF did that shyt once and every non street nikka thought that was standard operating procedure.

And How you gonna put strip clubs on us? Breh I've seen nikkas dropping bands at Stadium in DC and I saw my cousin waste a baby check at Show and Tel in Philly on one of the ugliest strippers I've ever seen. Throwing bands at the strip club is pretty much a street nikka thing everywhere now breh. It's not unique to the south.

That explains it.
Get money nikkas been hittin the strip clubs across the country since forever but Yall nikkas definitely brought the strip club wave to hiphop this not even up for debate.
DC nikkas got they own genre of music inspired by the strip joint them nikkas barely even rap.
Same wit Miami.
Yall nikkas was running to the stip joint breaking rap records,rapping about blowing bread in the club then every other video is in a strip joint,glorified strippers..Its yall cuture it is what it is.

But anyway back on topic if you yourself JUST SAID you dont spend bread like that in strip joint What exactly do you have a problem with what hov said?
Is making it rain a strip club not a waste of bread?
Is credit not important?

Jay Z is a dikk rider.

nas made this album years ago and it was better.

jay should just stick to rapping about watches and how much money he has. been doing it for decades.

lol... you Nas stans are shameless ....

when you look at real life outside music Jay has done more for the black community than Nas Escobar .......

so if any one of them is to speak on black issues id pay more attention to the person that actually walks the walk

 

[Nemesis]

it's disingenuous.

he's preaching against what he spent the majority of his career glorifying.

he literally got to where he is in life doing things he's preaching against now.

you dudes literally know nothing about life...... you really are heading for trouble

Bcz coli is full of nas stans

Hov is a legend , ima tell you why everebody wanna be hov and hov still alive

 

[skokiaan]

His voice doesnt fit that type of music. Stick to party music jay. U sound forced.

Dudes questioning the genuineness and financial intelligence of a billionaire.

If Jay could go 10x plat make another sellout album what do you think he would do? Or does his next albums go in the same direction?

Just like death of autotunes, I personally think he had nowhere else to go artistically and was forced this route. (Let's not forget 'Shining', released a few months ago, kind of flopped)

Not saying he doesn't feel like this, but now he is releasing material when it's more suitable for him.

Secondly, I don't agree with the imagery in the music video. I'm not offended by it because I understand the context, but who authorized him?

It's not your little plaything and worse, it's not yours to cash in on when you feel like it.

I also question if the music video was a calculated move by big media or at the very least open the door for things like this..

i question his general concern for the wellbeing of the black community, have we forgot about the Barney's profiling incident and what Jay said?

you can drop gems all day if you want, but if you really ain't out there like that, I'd say you're not built to be a teacher or helper. More of an example of individualism than black community empowerment. Rugged Individualism has nothing to do with race. I'd go as far to say he's not really concerned about racial justice in America outside of a few comments here and there

Can someone highlight the knowledge given in from the album?

@Beyoncé knowles-Carter @ridedolo

And NO it's not knowledge if everyone knows and understands the concept

What game did Jay put people up on?

Everyone understands the concept???

At Dudes listening to the album like

fukk credit
fukk investments
fukk generational wealth

 

[CrimsonTider]

Everyone understands the concept???

A lot of people his age don't have credit

He didn't say "I don't understand credit" he said " I have any credit"

And Jay didn't teach anybody about Credit. He mentioned it was more important than throwing money at the strip club whic is true when you are 48 with 3 kids but let's not act like you can't do both

Yea he brags about not having credit while throwing money in a strip club, but anyway you go against jay in every thread, you try again, but with someone else

And in what way is he wrong

Just because he's throwing money at a strip doesn't mean he don't have his finances in order

[Black Magisterialness]

Jay is pretty much everything the coli champions. Black business owner, successful on his own terms, married a black woman, raising a black family. Yet the coli still hates him

They not hearing you breh...

 

[NYChase718]

Rapping like 4:44 means hed be joe budden status.

Of course he had to be money cash hoes to make money

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Jay HAD to make this album. Imagine what would've happened if he made another BP3 or MCHG. The best rappers out there now are talking about shyt.. Jay is supposed to be the standard. HE HAD TO DROP THIS ALBUM PERIOD! nikka can't drop no Lil Uzi type records and people are highly critical of shyt now so 4:44 was something that had to be done by a guy like him. I was SMH because this was the "you trying to kick knowledge?" Guy but I'm over it now.
