Can't y'all see that he's fake, the rap version of T.D Jakes

[soul rattler]

Got dayum niggas derailed the dayum flow of the song SMMFH LOLOLOL

For Christ sakes just go with the flow !!!

 

[water ur seeds]

IMO the Jungle/Garden line was one of the best lines of the battle...

Did someone say flow?

 

[The Lonious Monk]

He always came off like a bitch in this one to me, like he was begging the listeners to consider him the winner.

 

[Mister B.]

Song was dope, but it was very definition of WHY he lost.

At that point, he's not even addressing Nas anymore; he's addressing us, copping a plea as to why Ether damn near broke his soul, to the point where he felt he had to put out Super Ugly.

Had he put this out instead of SU, this whole battle would be different, but Ether did its work, knocking almighty Hov off the pedestal, and he couldn't understand why.

 

[MR.CJ]

I love this song. Shits dope.

I always liken this song to Last Real Nigga Alive by Nas.

In Jays song, he coming from a perspective like yo how I lost? Yall picked this dude? Basically suprised he lost, but you can feel he lost.

In Nas' song, he came from the perspective of I won that shit and now im past it. When he said "I was scarface, Jay was Manolo, it hurt me when I had to kill him, and his whole squad for dolo"

Basically one is coming from the perspective of a dude who suprised he lost, and the other from the perspective of the dude who won.

These two songs prove Nas won the beef, from the 2 involved.

Prophesizing on your CD's and tapes

Won't break you a crumb off the little bit that he makes

What's up niggas, hey yo, I know you ain't talking 'bout me dog

You, what?

("Fuck Jay-Z")

You been on my dick nigga, you love my style, nigga

("Fuck Jay-Z")

 

[colton]

this should've came out instead of Super Ugly when the beef was still fresh

 

[blackgod813]

He a real man

 

[CapitalB]

Song was whiny as hell. Felt like since nas ethered him he's coppin "but but I donate to charity" "I'm the first one to help"pleas. Nigga was cocky as hell on takeover but you can definitely see the change on this one

true..

still was the best song out the exchange tho..

 

[CapitalB]

Still til this day don't know what 'jungle is a garden to me' means

Jigga was just piling on at this point he destroyed nas wit 3 verses

u really are a fuckin idiot! lol & smmfh

 

[The_Jackal]

Last real nigga alive>>>>>

 

[jim1000]

It was the take over snipplet ending with ask nas he don't want it with hov.

Nas came with the stillmatic freestyle

Then take over

Ether

Super ugly

Last real and blue print 2.

A few shots on other songs here and there. Off that tho i thought the jungle line was him saying he'd piss on him, being that he said he's big dog etc i took the line a completely different way.

Over all track was dope

Iono if you know this my nigga but last real came after blue print 2. Nas ended that battle/war with that scarface line. Last real might be the most underrated song in this battle. Nas basically made jay look weak as hell for trying to come at him while he was going through some personal shit with his moms. Blue print was a nice jab and good song but last real convinced me that Nas won the battle overall imo.

 

[jim1000]

this should've came out instead of Super Ugly when the beef was still fresh

You probably right but still I don't think it would have been strong enough to dethrone ether. He basically admitted that he took a loss.

 

[Kwan Dai]

Last real nigga alive>>>>>

Indeed. Sun laid it all out while still smacking J around.

Illmatic I was boss, It Was Written I flossed

One of the most creative LP's ever to hit stores

In the Firm I learned I Am NaStradamus

QB's Finest, Oochie Wally, faced more problems

I gave it all up so I can chill at home with Mama

She was gettin' old and sick so I stayed beside her

We had the best times, she asked would I make more songs

I told her not 'til I see her health get more strong

In the middle of that, Jay tried to sneak attack

Assassinate my character, degrade my hood

'Cause in order for him to be the Don, Nas had to go

The Gam-B-I-N-O rules I understood

What y'all want, see, I already had

The Gift and The Curse? Fuck that shit, the first shall be last

I'm the man's man, a rapper's rapper

G-O-D, S-O-N – they'll be none after

I was Scarface, Jay was Manolo

It hurt me when I had to kill him and his whole squad for dolo

Dopeness.

 

[a_list]

Yea, Jay was really shocked and disappointed...Came off whiny and still trying to get people to side with him...When I first heard it, I was like he thru in a couple shots, but he's hurting....

I liked the song(mostly bc of the beat)...but hated the concept, chorus and most importantly that shit u said bout Jay addressing the fans on some "I'm cool, why do u guys like nas" type shit..look at me."I donate money and his brother is a garden anyways" lol

 

[stackmaster 313]

Jay Z just couldn't believe people believed Ether basically what he was saying. Like he knew Nas was fake, but it was like nobody could see it but him. So he tried to explain it to yall on the song. Like people actually believed that Ether shit when 90% of it is a lie. Still don't understand how peoole say Jay lost to this day. When he said I gave you Life people forgot you MC'd. I'm a legend you should take a picture with me. It's just no comparison to me period. I still can listen to old Jay albums to this day and pick up new gems the older I get.

 

[DarthRozay]

Jigga had the flutes playin before Future and his molly precocet anthem

 

[The Nuisance]

I put dollars on mine ask Columbine...

Always though it was wack for hov to be out here telling the public bout his humanitarian efforts to beat a conscious rapper in a rap battle

Nah Nas called him materialistic and superficial so Jay was stating that he donates and assist the underprivileged. Basically saying Nas talks that save the world shit, but I put my money up!
