Why doesn't this new generation seem to understand or grasp why Jay-Z was considered a top draw?

It’s cause it’s simply been a long time since Jay has musically been on the radar, and the main music that that demographic knows from Jay is mostly bad music. They don’t know Takeover, Can I Live, Oh It’s On, and probably just know Big Pimpin in passing. This demographic knows Jay from Beyoncé song, Kanye, and Magna Carta Holy Grail.

You sound like a fukkin Stan, I'm talking about real life, not no damn comment sections.

Typical Hovenger, zero self awareness. Posting this on a message board populated by hip hop nerds that's 35+, acting like you the final authority on what anyone fukk with in "real life."

The new generation are right... Jayz bamboozled us with music for bytches and wannabe hustling dudes who thought they was gna be millionaires.

Jay Z is a great example of telling people youre the GOAT long enought that they will repeat it.

Nailed it

OP basically whining like "why don't yall love my favorite rapper ?"

It's largely because of how corny Jay became after his prime. Same is true of Common.
