Jay-Z's Ties To '5%' Downplayed Following 'We Made It' .. .

[onthafly]

Just sayin, it would look pretty damn odd for a nigga to walk around rockin a christian cross if he wasn't a christian.

Wearing a cross doesn't make you anymore Christian than wearing camo makes you a soldier

I like how yall debating another nigga religion as if one religion is less retarded than the other. You all look like fucking idiots at the end of the day.

Dude, save that bullshit for the atheist threat. Fuck outta here.

 

[DNB1]

Some of yall niggas was too hyped and ready to convert over that mediocre ass song

Cant lie, I researched a little after the song dropped.

#knowledgeispower

 

[za'kiss]

I just saw a thing on HuffPost about this faux-outrage.

I honestly almost feel bad for Jay. I mena Nas has been dropping 5% bars his whole career. He goes on Bill Maher and The Tonight Show promoting his 20 year old album. Not a peep. Jay releases a remix and rocks a new chain and the internet explodes.

Comes with the territory of being pop I guess. Lots of white people not knowing shit about Hip-Hop.

 

[loch121]

We already talked about this in here

I respect that jay would even wear it knowing the heat it could have brought

He been wearing that shit for months

The only reason they're talking about it is because they view 5% as racist against whites

 

[tompetrez3]

If Jay Z would just be himself he wouldn't have niggas calling him out on his overt dickriding and attention seeking tendencies. This just goes to prove Jay Z ain't really about the shit he raps about. He's God but a business man before that? He turning into rap TD Jakes like he accused Nas of being.

 

[semi-auto-mato]

so white america gets scared and y'all cosign the shit?

 

[buttuh_b]

Lmao Jay-Z wasn't never kickin no 5 percent shit in the 90's or 2000's.

 

[dwade206]

Yes he was.

 

[blackrain]

Those reference never made nobody think that hes an active member tho. Hes been dropping occasional references since the beginning

Nah when that song dropped some niggas was going full force explaining the Yakub reference as some sign Jay had taken his life to another level lol

 

[GetoBoy]

Lmao Jay-Z wasn't never kickin no 5 percent shit in the 90's or 2000's.

Showing YOUR lack of hip hop knowledge again I see...

 

[buttuh_b]

He really wasn't like that compared to his peers. One or two lines ain't shit.

 

[SnuffDaddy]

This is why jay remains so relevant.... Everything this niggaz does or says is a news story its crazy...

LMAO this is so untrue and naive. Its news NOWADAYS cuz hes Beyonces husband. Its all about HITS/VIEWS for these magazines and stuff, whether its Jay-Z or anybody else. The fact that Jay-Z is with Beyonce and makes those mags/sites even more money and hits by writing this type of shit constantly. Wasnt like the so called news "cared" so much back in 1996-2001 or whatever as much as now..why do you think?

Its not that diffult to understand. You brownnosing too much to see it tho.

The thing is your knowledge doesn't extend past Jay-Z. You and I both know I posses a lot more knowledge of the genre than you do. It's not close. You the same clown who only heard one Ghostface album.

Didn't know listening to ghostface was the determining factor on someone's hip hop knowledge *shrugs*....and if you're gonna try and be funny at least fact check first cuz I said I heard two and his stuff with the wu but continue...

So pretty much you just said what I said but used more words to say it....

Don't change shit up now. The point is, he was.

 

[semi-auto-mato]

smh...dudes so concerned with kicking jay back in that y'all missing the point. this is an attack on black folks. aint nobody writing articles about garth brooks rocking something white. jay do it and its racist. niggas is in the media painting a picture of n.o.g.e. as racist...kill whitey and all y'all care about is jay z. y'all cosigning the shit. if jay out of line then let the 5%ers check him not the new york post.

sad part about it is the white man went and tried to break down his lyrics....links was giving to y'all by one of our own here in the reason and problem less than 1% of the folks here went and read the shit.

now go ahead and carry on about jay while they blatantly disrespect us

 

[SallTlim]

Not for nothing, Jay BEEN making 5 percent references. You can go back to 1998 & hear him making references to God Body. Jay come from the era when the 5 Percent Nation was popular, so it comes as no surprise to me. Everyone else is now getting hip to it (his 5 percent knowledge/references)
