Why did Jay-Z refer to New York as being soft in the late 90’s

[The M.I.C.]

Both Alpo and Frank Lucas when they got caught

Don't do this

Houston got a lot of representation on the board so does Chicago.

New York going to war again?

I['m not trying to start anything. They seem to want to start with us though, for whatever reason.
I like Chicago- Lots of respect for that city, said it many times on posts.
There's a poster on here from Chicago I've communicated with in the past about our family connections. It's all good.
J. Prince really did instigate though, I can't even front on that. That was mad sloppy.

Nah, that's about to open up a lot of conflict where it doesn't need to go.
I'm not touching that.

fukk New York

 

[old boy]

i actually think this is a fair question, i was legit puzzled myself as to why jay said that


the only thing i could point to that remotely came off soft was biggie being shook to engage with tupac in battle. pac shyt all over him and you heard barely a whisper from biggie, that is until he jokes about pac fukking his wife on brooklyn's finest. then he drops sublims on long kiss goodnight after the man passes away, lame.


but that was really one man's beef with another as opposed to being about my city as a whole. so i dunno man

Kurupt said there trailer got shot up during the shooting for that video, thats why they kicked the buildings
