Y'all ready to admit that Jay really did take that L from the Rocafella Fallout?

The question is when has Shawn Knowles ever not taken an L? Got KO'ed by a lesser commercial artist, lost his last name to his wife, cried on the radio, lets Bey pick his clothes out for him etc. :gag:

The World, but from BK
Nah, Jay offered up EVERYTHING... all his masters, his stakes in everything, his CEO position at Def Jam, and Rocafella Records....for that one master


:patrice: ...this sounds a little off. I think he just offered his share of Roc-a-fella records. In the long run though, Dame has the masters but the music isn't really used for anything as far as soundtracks or other people using beats from it on actual albums.

But, I think Dame gets paid everytime he performs a song from it though.

Ok breh let me get this straight...

-His ex-business partner is damn near broke, the other is in jail.

-Doesn't have to split his money 3 ways anymore.

-Left with the masters to every album except 1 in which he owns a 3rd of, also got the only real viable artist from the roster (Kanye).

Some how he took the L :comeon:

I get your point though, he really wanted RD and didn't get it :manny:. IM sure he's long gotten over that...atleast I know I woulda gotten over it especially with all that was gained.

he already tried and failed at doing just that.


:leostare:

All his success his money his new artists (rita ora&co) his new place in popular culture, all his accolades.

from doing the Obama stuff to where Dame is (with 1/3 of RD) and you think he'd swap places with Dame ? be serious bro.

If Jay-Z wanted he would have Dame :deadware: but he's happy knowing that Dame is about to be evicted and the only one that can save him is King Hov, so no, Jigga didn't lose.


Jay is chilling somewhere in an Island with Bey and their baby girl. I'm at home listening to this new Daft Punk and Dame is getting evicted, life is good :blessed:


Naus lost :piss::ahh:

As y'all already know, Jay was willing to give up EVERYTHING.... just for the masters of Reasonable Doubt.


Dame gave him the :birdman:, and while y'all think Jay really won from the Rocafella fallout....he LOST, and he lost in incredible fashion.


While y'all acting like he's your father, and how that much money is a win,no matter what.... he still can't buy his masters back from Dame....and that dude is bout to be evicted from his house.

The farther Dame plummets from grace, the greater the L increases...cause Dame will hold onto that shyt forever, just to spite Jay.


:patrice:
If you really look at it, it's on some storybook level of an L......Dude gained everything, but didn't get the one thing he wanted.

:heh:

and I'm sure Dre not owning the Masters to The Chronic is depriving him of sleep at night as well.

He took the L, cause he didn't get what he really wanted out of the deal...that's the type of shyt, that haunts people for decades.

Dame looking :flabbynsick: and Jay really is :sadbron: that he couldnt even trade his lifes work for that album to himself.


but you right breh, Jay didn't lose at all.

Dre didn't try to swap everything he ever accomplished for the Masters to the Chronic...

Did you forget what happened leading up to him giving up the Masters to the Chronic?

Hell, you do know that he tried to sue to get them back after Death Row had went bankrupt?

Jay isn't losing sleep. More importantly than the masters to Reasonable Doubt, he owns his publishing which is what really makes him his money when dealing with music. He'll eventually own the Masters, but you're making it seem like Jay is :to: when in reality right now he's more than likely looking for a Shooting Guard to manage.

NaAaAa breh, the shyt that haunts dreams is...

"I heard muthafukkas saying they made Hov/ made Hov say okay so make another Hov" :huhldup:

Jay knew he was gonna get the masters when he took the Presidency...he was going for the full swoop in. Like just give me RD and IM out :mjpls:, then once Dame & Biggs sell it to DefJam he gets all the masters. Hov is ruthless and nikkas on here try to make it seem like a bad thing...its the way of the world (survival of the fittest).
