Jay Z is 45

[lamontbdc]

it could be the other way around jay lives a life style where you barely get sleep ... i see artist trying to convince everyone that the life of an artist is > then the life of a 9 to 5er ... yeah maybe compared to someone who fiips burgers for a living or cleans up shit for a living and making minimum wage money ... but a 9 to 5er with a good income has way more freedom and a life than any artist and that includes Jayz ... artist make it seem like hustling is the way to go ... it is depending on the type of person you are .. trying to be an artist or a celebrity is a very stressfull life ... the best way to describe it is to borrow a few words from dave chappelle ... he said you remember in the cartoons where one cartoon would look @ the other and he/she would turn into a steak dinner thats the equivalent to an celebrity everybody looks @ you like your steak dinner ... and everyone wants a piece ... and you get no peace .... that is if you want to live up to you celebrity image ....

in short depending what his father does jayz could actually feel way more older than his father .......... 9 to 5 doesnt always = stress and struggle .....

same shit i was about to say.

compared to the other 40 year old millionaire rappers, i think jay along with cube handles theirselves well compared to the likes of birdman and diddy
but these guys grew up shitty and still beat the odds and became multimillionaires. if i was in their position i'd feel i have a right to do w/e the fuck i want as well

it could be the other way around jay lives a life style where you barely get sleep ... i see artist trying to convince everyone that the life of an artist is > then the life of a 9 to 5er ... mainly because of the money you make however your on a 24hr work schedule vs just working 8hrs - 12hrs a day for 4-5 days out of each week ....... yeah maybe compared to someone who fiips burgers for a living or cleans up shit for a living and making minimum wage money ... but a 9 to 5er with a good income has way more freedom and a life than any artist and that includes Jayz ... artist make it seem like hustling is the way to go ... it is depending on the type of person you are .. trying to be an artist or a celebrity is a very stressfull life ... the best way to describe it is to borrow a few words from dave chappelle ... he said you remember in the cartoons where one cartoon would look @ the other and he/she would turn into a steak dinner thats the equivalent to an celebrity everybody looks @ you like your steak dinner ... and everyone wants a piece ... and you get no peace .... that is if you want to live up to your celebrity image ....

The stress of a 9 to 5 taking care of a family and being a black man in white america with limited options type stress completely shits on that I wanna be richer so I'm doing this by choice type shit. Jay knows Jay can quit and live high on the hog with his rich wife and his half of a billion dollar net worth or whatever it is thats a huge weight lifted off your shoulders rather than a man that knows if his job stops his life and his families life changes COMPLETELY and also the fact that most normal black men in america are basically 1 mistake or bad judgement call away from being homless or poor. Jay ain't got that type of stress. Optional stress isn't really stress bruh.

 

[blackgotty]

i bet if u would be making millions with urban clothing and be one of the most influential man in music ,u would be wearing it as well

and lets not act like we never saw jay in a suit

i was speaking about a man who has a good job with a good paying salary and is also taking the steps to be sure he and his family are secured financially in the future ....... side note sounds like you need to upgrade your thinking it aint 1600s 1700s 1800s or early 1900s no more homey its not a black or white thing any more yes we still have our stuggles because of the color of our skin trying to live in this world ... but so do handicap people ... so do disceased ridden people ... shit if black folks in america are so close to falling off damn i wonder what you would think about the folks that live in 3rd world countries ???????

there are so many people that have achieved on so many levels of all races and ages ... @ this point your failure in life is based on your own decision to fail ... no one makes you sell drugs ... no one makes you kill .... no one makes you have kids while your still a kid yourself .... you take it upon yourself to make those decision ... then cry ... deal with the responsibilities you put in front of yourself or dont create them ........... not saying this is you just an example of how life gets to 1 mistake away etc ..... 9 times out of 10 you put yourself in that position by either being dumb, naive or peer pressure ..................... stand on your on two and go for yours ............ its way too many super rich people that look and act just like you to be acting like shit is hopeless for you based on the color of your skin ..............................
